Celebrating Independence Day closer to home this year?
Start your celebration early by catching the fireworks happening on stage during Georgia Shakespeare's Summer Festival. Tennessee Williams' sizzling Southern drama Cat on a Hot Tin Roof joins the line-up alongside the Bard's romantic comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream.
In honor of the July 4th holiday, Georgia Shakespeare is offering 2-for-1 tickets to performances June 30 - July 3. Take a break from the weather outside and watch the stage light up inside the Conant Performing Arts Center.
On Tuesday, June 30 & Wednesday, July 1, Georgia Shakespeare presents Tennessee Williams' powerful, highly-charged, and sizzling drama of a Southern family in crisis. Award-winning actors Daniel Thomas May and Courtney Patterson star as the alcoholic, aging football hero Brick Pollitt and his passionate, sexually-frustrated wife Maggie "the cat". Sparks fly when the family gathers to celebrate Big Daddy's 65th birthday in this Pulitzer Prize-winning drama, directed by Jasson Minadakis.
The Shakespeare Crashers, a new social group geared towards Atlanta's young professionals, hosts a happy hour beer and wine reception sponsored by Atlanta Brewing Company before the July 1 performance of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Event begins at 6:30 p.m. on the picnic grounds. Purchase tickets online or call 404.264.0020.
On Thursday, July 2 & Friday, July 3, Georgia Shakespeare presents A Midsummer Night's Dream. When the Fairy King Oberon decides to meddle in the affairs of the foolish mortals - and immortals - that inhabit a moonlit forest, the magical potion of one little flower causes an awful lot of mayhem in Shakespeare's beloved romantic comedy.
