the Fortitude Boys: a father, son, and hilarious mess they call making living.

Mark and George never planned to be famous-at least not for this.Mark's a fifty-something lighting director with big dreams, bad timing, and a habit of turning simple ideas into small-town disasters. George, his seventy-something father, is a retired widower who's long since accepted that resistance is futile. Together they run lights at the Hobart Art Theater, plow snow for extra cash, and somehow stumble into one absurd money-making scheme after another.Whether they're accidentally selling lawn chairs that don't belong to them, flooding a Christmas parade with detergent, or launching the mysterious "Five-Dollar Miracle" campaign that somehow makes them local legends, one thing is certain-wherever Fortitude goes, trouble follows closely behind.Dawn, Mark's endlessly patient wife, spends most of her time keeping the peace and the police out of their kitchen. Between the chaos, though, there's laughter, loyalty, and something real: a family that finds joy in the mess, love in the mayhem, and humor in every wrong turn.Set across snowy streets, diner coffee booths, and the flickering glow of the Hobart Art Theater, The Fortitude Boys: A Comedy of Chaos celebrates the small-town absurdities that make life worth showing up for-especially when you show up late, covered in coffee, and owing someone five bucks.
