Monty Python's Spamalot

Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center - March 10, 2023 through March 26, 2023

"Lovingly ripped off" from the classic 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, MONTY PYTHON'S SPAMALOT retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table and of their search for the elusive Holy Grail. Assisted in their journey by the glamorous Lady of the Lake, the knights sing and dance their way through medieval England, where they encounter cows, chorus girls, a killer rabbit, and assorted French people. The original 2005 Broadway production won three Tony® Awards, including Best Musical, and has been hailed as "gorgeously silly" (New York Post) and as "a big, crowd-pleasing Broadway musical comedy" (Newsday).

Next to Normal

Legion Theatre (Mad Artists' & Pumphouse Players) - March 03, 2023 through March 12, 2023

To an outsider, the Goodmans are an average American family: two hard-working parents and two witty teenagers. But the show reveals the unflinching truth underneath: mom Diana is battling manic depression, Natalie struggles to be the perfect child, Gabe provokes his mother's mania, and Dan is just trying to keep everyone together. Next to Normal explores - with compassion - the lengths we'll go to keep ourselves sane and our families in place. The Tony Award® and Pulitzer Prize winning pop/rock musical lifts the veil on family loss and the individual responses to crisis and endurance, while pushing the boundaries of contemporary musical theater.

Deli

The Lionheart Theatre Company - March 03, 2023 through March 19, 2023

Lionheart is pleased to present the premiere production of this play by local playwright Diane Dexter. "Deli" explores the question of, "What happens to a neighborhood institution when the neighborhood changes?" That's what the Davidson family is confronting in "Deli." It's 1990; chain restaurants are cutting into their business, the customer base is shifting, and the younger generation of Davidsons sees opportunity elsewhere. At the heart of "Deli" is a decision we all face at one time or another: Whether to hang on, adapt or let go.
