Typecasting always works. Charlotte Rae didn’t just portray Mrs. Edna Ann Garrett, she was Mrs. Garrett. Jim J. Bullock was Monroe on Too Close for Comfort. Mr. T was Clubber Lang. Similarly, he was also B.A. Baracus. Kinda the same dude. What happens when you go against type? John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd in Neighbors, that’s what happens.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 7 p.m. Sunday. Weekend matinees are at 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $25 to $75. Call 817-321-5028 or visit casamanana.org.
