When life becomes almost too much to handle, where do you turn? I say, to the theatre! And SONS OF THE PROPHET written by Stephen Karam at Birmingham Festival Theatre shows us that humor can get us through the pain.

I would strongly suggest that you call 205-933-2383 or go to www.bftonline.org for ticket information. SONS OF THE PROPHET runs through April 16 so you have time to see this super funny, meaningful play.
