The Kimball Theatre

Located in Merchants Square, the Kimball Theatre is home to current films and live performances. On any given day, you might see a Colonial Williamsburg interpreter portray Patrick Henry or enjoy a jazz ensemble of talented students from the College of William and Mary. Perhaps the Peninsula's Jewish Film Festival is in town, or maybe you'll see players performing an 18th-century Grand Medley of Entertainments. Whatever your tastes, the Kimball Theatre is at the center of Williamsburg's community activities. Creative programming alliances with the College of William and Mary, community organizations, and Colonial Williamsburg link our past with the present.

Wit's Last Stake

July 24, 2008 8:00 PM

What could possibly stand in the way of a charming, but insolvent young gentleman inheriting his ill old uncle's fortune, marrying his true love and living happily ever after? The old man stubbornly clinging to life and snatching his nephew's love for his own!

Misaligned lovers, mistaken identities, wiley servants, fortunes and foibles make this the stuff of classic 18th- century farce!

This theater variety show takes its inspiration from a multitude of eclectic historical venues and artists. Part old-time radio comedy show, part musical review, and part Polynesian night club, the Big Bamboo Radio Show is as unpredictable as it is entertaining. No other show can boast this lineup: witty and charming hosts, talented guest performers, an absent-minded house band, and a giant spirit-possessed tiki head. This show is recorded for radio broadcast on Big Bamboo Show’s partner station FM 100.9 WRRW, so bring your loudest cheering voice. For more information, go to www.bigbambooshow.com.
