Running With Scissors Presents Kyle Daigrepont, Yvette Hargis, Jack Long, Brian Peterson, Lisa Picone, and Dorian Rush in HELL'S BELLES!, Now thru 6/23
Join Running With Scissors as they travel back in time to the Civil War, to the crumbling, dilapidated mansion that houses the French Finishing School for Little Confederate Women. Once a font of gentility and etiquette, it's now little more than a reform school, chock-full of the bawdiest, cattiest, downright orneriest gals (Kyle Daigrepont, Lisa Picone, Dorian Rush) the South has ever seen, lorded over by spinster sisters Flossie and Fannie French (Brian Peterson, Yvette Hargis)!
Into their midst stumbles a seemingly innocent Union soldier (Jack Long), wounded at a nearby battle. He's taken in and nursed, but what will all those women do with him when he's well enough to walk again? Will he make it out alive? Will they? HELL'S BELLES is Southern Gothic at its sassiest.
HELL'S BELLES runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm andSundays at 6pm from today, June 7 - 23. Tickets are $25 on Fridays and Saturdays, and $20 on Sundays. Reserve yours today by visiting MidCityTheatre.com or calling 504-488-1460!
FUN FACT: HELL'S BELLES is inspired by the 1971 Clint Eastwood film, THE BEGUILED, which was filmed just upriver from New Orleans at Ashland Belle-Helene plantation.
