Join us for the first show in our 30th anniversary season! Shows run Sept 12-29th. *Content Warning: Depictions of intense family trauma including child loss and death.*
Inspired by a true story, Bright Star tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and ’40s. With beautiful melodies and powerfully moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion. Bright Star is as refreshingly genuine as it is daringly hopeful!
