Jacksonville’s Playhouse on the Square is pleased to present Bleacher Bums, a Cubs/Cardinals comedy presented in nine innings. Originally penned by Tony Award-winning actor, producer, director and writer Joe Mantegna (Three Amigos, The Godfather Part III, The Simpsons Movie and “Criminal Minds”), the play, set in 1997, follows a group of Cubs and Cardinals fans enjoying a summer afternoon within the friendly confines of Wrigley Field. The show is a heartfelt examination of the relationships behind the fans who are always hoping for “next year.” Bleacher Bums is directed by Rich McCoy, who serves as one of the artistic directors behind Playhouse on the Square alongside his wife, Laurie. Tickets to Bleacher Bums cost $10 and can be purchased in advance at Our Town Books in Jacksonville or on the day of the show at the door.
