Moonlight & MagnoliasMarch 9 - 11, 2012
A wonderful comedy about five days that made history. 1939 Hollywood is abuzz. David O. Selznick has shut down production of his new epic, Gone with the Wind. The screenplay, you see, just doesn't work. So what is an all-powerful movie mogul to do? While fending off the film's stars, gossip columnists and his own father-in-law, Selznick calls in famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls formidable director Victor Fleming from the set of the Wizard of Oz. Once in his office, he locks the doors, closes the shades, and on a brain food diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men labor over five days to write the screenplay for one of the most beloved films of all time. Written by Ron Hutchinson. Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.Black Box Theatre / All Seats $16.00

Set in an island paradise during World War II, two parallel love stories are threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in love with a mature French planter, Emile. Nellie learns that the mother of his children was an island native and, unable to turn her back on the prejudices with which she was raised, refuses Emile's proposal of marriage. Meanwhile, the strapping Lt. Joe Cable denies himself the fulfillment of a future with an innocent Tonkinese girl with whom he's fallen in love out of the same fears that haunt Nellie. When Emile is recruited to accompany Joe on a dangerous mission, Nellie realizes that life is too short not to seize her own chance for happiness.
