Fed’s Backyard Theater is a former garage converted into a 56 seat black box theater by local Bradenton resident Federico Hradek. Hradek’s goal in building the theater was to direct and produce full-length musicals, stage plays, improv shows, and much more. In March of 2023, the theater hosted their inaugural production of Ride the Cyclone: The Musical, and has since amassed over 100,000 views on TikTok. Heathers will be the seventh production to play Fed’s Backyard Theater.
