THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO Comes to Main Street Theater 11/12-12/13, Previews 11/7-11/11

 

 

The Last Night of Ballyhoo, by Alfred Uhry and directed by Steve Garfinkel, will take the stage at the Main Street Theater – Rice Village, 2540 Times Blvd., Houston, TX  77005.  The show will run from November 12 – December 13, 2009, with previews November 7, 8, and 11.  There will be no performance November 13.  Performances will be held Thursdays at 7:30pm; Fridays & Saturdays at 8:00pm; Sundays at 3:00pm.

 

It’s December of 1939, and the world is facing great challenges, but the Frietag household in Atlanta is consumed with more immediate matters, such as the world premiere of Gone with the Wind and whether or not Lala will secure a date for Ballyhoo, the Jewish social event of the season.  The author of Driving Miss Daisy turns a sharply amused eye on matters of assimilation and prejudice, identity and romance, in this rich portrait of a family struggling to know its place.
