Coal Creek Community Theater presents
The Last Night of Ballyhoo
by Alfred Uhry
Directed by Russ Orr
Gone with the Wind is having its world premiere, and Hitler is invading Poland, but Atlanta’s Jewish community are much more concerned with who is going to Ballyhoo, the social event of the season. Prejudice, acceptance, and heartache stand in the way as the family gets pulled apart and then mended together with plenty of comedy, romance, and revelations. Ballyhoo takes several unexpected turns as the characters face where they come from and are forced to deal with who they really are.
Run Time - 2 hours and 15 minutes with one 15-minute intermission
