Seeing Stars in Dixie rehearses

The Blue Ridge Community Theater is in rehearsal for the final Main Stage show of the season, "Seeing Stars in Dixie" by Ron Osborne. Our cast has been hard at play rehearsing this delightful show set in 1956 where Hollywood has arrived in Natchez, Mississippi with its brightest stars to film Raintree County. Meanwhile at Clemmie's, a Natchez tea room, the widowed proprietor who has a fascination with movies and a secret admirer, oversees her own cast of characters: Tootie, her take charge friend; Jo Beth, a former beauty queen; Glease, a man more comfortable with women than macho men, and Marjorie, an unethical social climber. Competition for a small role in the movie brings out the best and worst of these memorable characters. Twists, turns and revelations lead Clemmie to trade a moment of fame for love and the chance to impact the lives of people dear to her.

The show opens on November 9th and runs for four weekends; every Friday and Saturday night at 7:30pm and every Sunday @ 2pm through December 2nd. Reserved seats are $15 and we have group rates! Tickets are on sale now but they're selling fast so call the box office to reserve your seats for this wonderfully funny southern comedy.
