A Time To Kill
June 24-27 2021
Yes, indeed, this is the authorized live stage version of the hugely popular John Grisham novel set right here in Mississippi. Carl Lee Hailey shot two men in the very courtroom where he now stands trial. But attorney Jake Brigance sees Hailey’s act of vengeance against the racist men who attacked his daughter as a desperate bid for justice, and he’s willing to risk everything to defend his client’s life. As the trial heats up, the community is torn apart in this gripping adaptation of John Grisham’s incendiary novel about race, crime, and family in small-town America that asks the question: When is it right to take justice into your own hands?
Adults: $10 Students/or Under 16 $6

A Statement on Safety
A limited and safely distanced seating arrangement is being researched to allow groups of two or four to be seated and safely enjoy this performance live and on stage. Those who wish to attend in person, please call ahead to let us know the number in your party and the date you wish to attend. Please arrive in masks and remain masked up while moving about the room until you are seated and safely distanced from others not in your party. We kindly ask your courtesy and cooperation by remaining masked at any time you are moving about or might come into proximity of others not in your group. Delta Center Stage has invested multiple thousands of dollars in air sanitizing technology designed to actively and continuously remove contaminants from the air and from contact surfaces in the room and restroom areas. However, there is no safe substitute for distance, care, and personal courtesy. DCS cannot be responsible for the personal behaviour of those present.
To Attend Virtually on Facebook Live!
We are actively pursuing a special license that will authorize DCS to stream these performances. This offering of a virtual experience is more than an afterthought. This virtual feature will be a licensed performance subject to restriction, and a significant fee must be paid as well. Further details on this temporary new feature will be announced here when licensing is issued.
PLANNED NEW SUBSCRIPTION SEASON DRIVE IS UNDERWAY
A new, full, and complete season of shows has been set. Performance dates are on the Bass Cultural Arts Center Calendar for a season of live performance dramas, musicals, and comedies. “With only a few minor adjustments, we plan to resume full operations with this subscription drive. It can’t come a moment too soon, either” says Bixler. “No matter how many special aid, PPP, CARES, and other emergency programs are out there, they do not and cannot and should not replace or supplant our traditional and very successful business model, which has always depended on locally based subscription and box office support.” Bixler continues “Emergency programs have done their intended job, which was to keep non-profits and other community based organizations’ personnel and infrastructure in place. Because of that national support, we have not had a need to ask for our equally financially distressed individuals and businesses on a local level to send us any survival contributions. We all have been very fortunate in that regard, but now it is time to pick up the baton and resume operations in as normal a fashion as we can. And I firmly believe we can do just that. Our success and survival is now, properly, back in the hands in which we would rather be, and that is our local friends, family, and the unique community that is our Mississippi Delta. Please make your upcoming support the most generous that you may.”
