Hello all! I hope everyone out there is staying warm and ready to enjoy all the wonderful new productions coming out in Rutherford County!
Don’t forget to mark (pun intended) your calendars for Dracula on February 11th-13th and February 18th-20th; Fridays and Saturdays at 7pm and Sundays at 2:30. Go to Bravoboro.com to get your tickets today. Rumor has it that Bram Stoker’s vampire is having an online spat with Murfreesboro’s Count Drahoon. Be sure to keep your eyes on social media, as you are bound to see Bravo Boro cross promote with various other door shows.
The long awaited Party of Twelve is set to premiere at The Washington Theatre at Patterson Park on April 8th-10th. The play by Mary Donnet Johnson was set to debut to commemorate the passage of the 19th Amendment, but due to COVID, it had to be put on hold. Leading Ladies and Center for the Arts have eagerly waited, and feel that the time is right to finally present this production centering on twelve famous women from Rutherford County over the span of a century. Go to https://www.rutherfordartsalliance.org/leading-ladies to keep up with details on the show and ticket info.
