About the play:
1997 Tony Winner for Best Play, The Last Night of Ballyhoo is set in 1939 Atlanta, Georgia. The story centers on the Freitag’s, a family of elitist German Jews and their thoughts and feelings about Ballyhoo, the local social event of the season. As they prepare and pontificate, Gone with the Wind is premiering down the street and Hitler’s is invading Poland as close or as far away as that may feel based on relations.

The Last Night of Ballyhoo is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Dramatists Play Service.

The Day The Internet Died
by Ian McWethy and Jason Pizzarello

What will happen in Bloomington when the internet dies? Pandemonium! In a world that is so dependent on the internet for shopping, mailing, and posting pictures of cute babies, how will society function? Not well as it turns out. The Day the Internet Died is produced by special arrangements with Stage Partners. (www.yourstagepartners.com)
