THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO

October 25 @ 7:00 PM

Cabaret Theatre
TICKETS: $69 Premium
| $59 Standard

(In partnership with Boca Stage)


By Alfred Uhry

THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO takes place in Atlanta, Georgia, in December of 1939. Gone with the Wind is having its world premiere, and Hitler is invading Poland, but Atlanta’s elitist German Jews are much more concerned with who is going to Ballyhoo, the social event of the season. Follow along the Freitag family’s antics as they get pulled apart and then mended together with plenty of comedy, romance and revelations along the way. Events take several unexpected turns as the characters face where they come from and who they really are. This heartfelt coming-of-age drama tells a powerful story of family, religion and identity.


REVIEWS: 
 
“Everything falls into place in this…wonderfully crafted script.” —Variety.

“Alfred Uhry’s charming Broadway comedy (sort of) THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO…has a subtext and undertow of thought. It is a delightful comedy freighted with an uncomfortable message.” —New York Post.

“Alfred Uhry’s achingly beautiful play THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO [is] luminous and powerful…” —Los Angeles Times.
