Steel Magnolias - September 2008 |
|
Play by Robert Harling
An off-Broadway play in 1987 and was made into a successful movie in 1989. Steel Magnolias is comedy-drama concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious and touching-and, in the end, deeply revealing of the strength and purposefulness which underlies the antic banter of its characters. "Harling has given his women sharp, funny dialogue...The play builds to a conclusion that is deeply moving." -NY Daily News. "...a skillfully crafted, lovingly evoked picture of eccentricity in the small-town South...Robert Harling is a new voice in the theatre and the qualities of STEEL MAGNOLIAS suggest he may be an important one." -Drama-Logue.
Shows: September 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26th and 27th at 8 pm
September 14, 21st and 28th at 2 pm

Into the Woods - October/November 2008 |
|
Musical
Book by James Lapine and Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim's fractured fairy tale. When a Baker and his Wife learn they've been cursed with childlessness by the Witch next door, they embark on a quest for the special objects required to break the spell, swindling, lying to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one who climbed the beanstalk). Everyone's wish is granted at the end of Act One, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later, with disastrous results. What begins a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of "The Princess Bride" becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.
Shows: October 23, 24, 25, 30, 31st at 8 pm
November 1, 6, 7th and 8th at 8 pm
October 26th, November 3th and 9th at 2pm

1940's Radio Hour - December 2008 |
|
Holiday Musical
Book by Walton Jones. Based on an idea by Walton Jones and Carol Lees. Music by various composers.
A different time is evoked in this marvelously theatrical and winning show, a live broadcast of a The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade from the Hotel Astor's Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942. The spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant "Strike Up the Band" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" is accurately captured as the harassed producer copes with a drunk lead singer, the delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the mike, the second banana who dreams of singing a ballad, and the trumpet player man who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.
Shows: December 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19th and 20th at 8 pm
December 7th and 14th at 2 pm (Saturday night closing)
Sponsored by Studio Jewelers. Co-Sponsored by Dahlonega Veterinary Hospital.
