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?

The show features all the memorable songs from the animated film plus five new songs written for the Broadway production. A story of true love and acceptance between sisters, Frozen Jr. expands upon the emotional relationship and journey between Princesses Anna and Elsa. When faced with danger, the two discover their hidden potential and the powerful bond of sisterhood. With a cast of beloved characters and loaded with magic, adventure, and plenty of humor, Frozen Jr. is sure to thaw even the coldest heart

Annual Greenville Cemetery Tour
Did you know that the Greenville Cemetery has gravestones dating back to the early 1830s? We have ancestors buried there who lived within a generation of the American Revolution! Our 6th Annual Greenville Cemetery Tour will again take place in conjunction with Greenville’s Hot Tamale Festival. Set in the late afternoon/evening, this onehour event will make a great closing chapter to one of Greenville’s most active weekends. Six fresh new stories of our community’s ancestors will be brought to life from the almost bottomless well of Greenville’s rich, deep, and varied history. Specific characters and stories are still in development, but you won’t want to miss this increasingly popular, fascinating, and engaging live interface with our community’s almost-200-year history.

It doesn’t matter that you know how the story ends! Everyone, especially following our long and strangely shared isolation of the past year, will be touched anew by this timeless story of simple belief in the spirit of the season. “This is a tale that we want to believe in, that creates a world we seem to desperately desire... where love and decency and generosity of spirit are their own rewards. What we want Christmas to be all about, really.” – Santa Cruz Sentinel A retirement-home-rescue department store Santa (with the name of our holiday saint,) unleashes waves of good will with Macy’s customers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find the toys their children really want. Macy’s management plots to have Kris shanghaied to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, but Kris ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa.

The real story of the one-of-akind sound that hit the airwaves in 1959 and changed our culture forever. This exhilarating show charts Motown Founder Berry Gordy’s incredible journey from featherweight boxer to the heavyweight music mogul who launched the careers of Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye, and so many more.

From the Brit writing team of Mischief Theatre Company, Broadway masters of comedy, comes this smash hit farce, the very latest iteration of one of theatre’s favorite subforms, the “play-within-a-play.” Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, “The Murder at Haversham Manor,” where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show – an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines). Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Awardwinning comedy is a global phenomenon that’s guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter
