The theme of Firehouse Community Theatre's 'October Hoedown' is hats, boots, and yee-haw.

Firehouse Community Theatre is going country this month. Director Mike Shough says the theater’s in-house singers are gearing up to provide patrons with a foot-stomping evening of old-fashioned entertainment.

“It's our Firehouse Singers and hoedown, country music,” said Shough. “It's a musical revue and it's very popular. People like it a lot.”

Patrons are invited to dress to impress in their finest country attire.

“The theme is hats, boots, and yee-haw,” Shough said.

It may be located on Bridge Street, but during October Hoedown, Firehouse Community Theatre will be transformed into Honky Tonk Highway on Lower Broadway.
