Fargo-Moorhead Community Theatre's annual talent show raises money for rebuild

FARGO — Performers from the Fargo-Moorhead Community Theatre showed off their talents for their own cause Friday night, Jan. 10.

Eight acts came up to the stage in hopes of taking home the gold in the theater's third annual "Fargo Famous" talent show.

The troupe performed the talent show at the Raddison Hotel this year, as the theater itself is still deemed "unsafe" after cracks were found in a beam.

People attending the show were able to make free-will donations, which will go towards rebuilding costs.

"The building is a building, but we're still active as an organization," said Eloise Breikjern, the executive director for FMCT. "We're reaching out into the community, which has been just overwhelmingly helpful to us."

FMCT has used theatre stages around the community to keep this season of plays and musicals going, including moving its production of "A Charlie Brown Christmas" to Concordia College's Frances Frazier Comstock Theater.

The theater's next play, "Little Women," will be performed at Moorhead High School starting Friday, Feb. 7.
