About
On this week’s Around the Cracker Barrel, host Guy Atchley welcomes John Martin, President of the Performing Arts Guild at Quail Creek, and Dodie Martin, the organization’s Publicity Chair, to spotlight their upcoming production of Farce of Nature. This lively, fast-paced comedy follows a struggling fishing lodge caught in a whirlwind of outrageous characters, mistaken identities, and hilariously chaotic situations—true to the spirit of classic farce.
The Martins share details about the unique dinner theater experience, with performances scheduled for May 1st through 3rd at the Madera Clubhouse Crystal Ballroom. Audiences can enjoy a full meal followed by an evening (or matinee) of laughter, physical comedy, and unpredictable twists.
Beyond the stage, the conversation highlights the vibrant Performing Arts Guild community—over 70 members strong—offering opportunities for residents to perform, volunteer, and connect through the arts. The production also supports a meaningful cause, with proceeds benefiting the Sahuarita High School Mustang Marching Band as they prepare for a special trip to Philadelphia.
From behind-the-scenes stories to the joy of live theater, this episode celebrates creativity, community, and the fun of bringing people together through performance in Quail Creek.
