CRITIC’S PICK: Jimmy Buffett’s Escape to Margaritaville, Marietta Theatre Company - In 1989, a Washington Post critic wrote that Buffett’s music was a combination of “tropical languor with country funkiness,” while the singer himself called it “drunken Caribbean rock ‘n’ roll.” Featuring most of Buffett’s best known songs, this comedic homage to the billionaire hedonist, who died in 2023, has a book by Emmy winner Greg Garcia (My Name is Earl, Raising Hope) and Emmy nominee Mike O’Malley (Survivor’s Remorse, Shameless). The expected cheeseburgers, loud shirts and parrots will add to the jollity. “As a hectic fall winds down and as we ready ourselves for the hustle and bustle of another holiday season, an escape is just what the doctor ordered,” Director Rachel Rudd says. “Getting to share the beloved music of the legendary Jimmy Buffett is a great way for us to pay tribute.” On Nov. 8, 15 & 16, punters will whoop it up with a free pre-show concert featuring Jeff Pike, the lead singer of tribute band A1A. - Kevin C. Madigan
