As you know, Flat Rock Playhouse has gone “dark” at this time as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While we continue our work behind-the-scenes, we are closed to the public. We would like to use this time to spread positivity and entertainment for our patrons.
We have invited Vagabonds from all over to submit videos for our Facebook page. Our Vagabond Videos are already underway, and you can see Scott Treadway reprise his role as Arles from the Tuna series, Bill Muñoz and his family perform a song, Erin Rubico and her husband Matt Ban teach you how to make a special Elvis-inspired recipe, and more! Tune in to our Facebook page Monday – Friday over the next few weeks for the one-of-a-kind videos by your FRP favorites.
We will reopen with Million Dollar Quartet in mid-July. The remainder of the season will proceed as planned beginning with Jumping Jack Flash – The Music of the Rolling Stones on August 20th. Steel Magnolias and our summer musicals, A Chorus Line, and West Side Story, will be moved to the 2021 season.
In response to Government guidelines, and for the safety of our staff and customers, the box office will close Friday, April 3rd and plans to re-open Monday, April 27th. Patrons with questions can refer to the Playhouse website www.FlatRockPlayhouse.org for answers to frequently asked questions and/or to find ways to help support FRP at this critical time.

Well is a funny and touching comedy about mothers and daughters, mind over body, social activism and theatre itself. Lisa, the onstage playwright, attempts a memory play about her force-of-nature mother, Ann, who though constantly ill manages to heal a community. The playwright asks the provocative question: “Do we create our own illness?” The answers she gets are much more complicated than she bargained for as the play spins dangerously out of control into riotously funny and unexpected territory.

I am sure this email is not unexpected, but that doesn’t make it any easier to write.
Asheville Community Theatre will be closed for the foreseeable future. We are unable to know when we will be able to reopen. It is our intention to reschedule any upcoming event; we also understand that this may not be possible.
Here’s what we do know:
During this time, our staff will be working remotely. You can reach any of us through email – so don’t be a stranger!
If you have tickets to a performance scheduled between now and May 1, 2020, our Box Office staff will contact you directly – either by email or phone – over the next week to ask your preference regarding your purchase.

With your purchase, you may choose to:
If you are financially able, we invite you to donate your ticket purchase. As you can imagine, this will be devastating for arts organizations who rely on ticket sales to stay afloat. Your donation will help ACT to weather this unfathomable storm and be ready to reopen when we’re able to be back together again.

Part eulogy, part game of pretend, Storm Still follows the three Lear sisters as they gather together to clean out their recently deceased father’s house, acting out a ridiculous and cathartic version of Shakespeare’s King Lear in their childhood backyard.

Warren Wilson Theatre presents: Lynn Nottage’s SWEAT, the third and final production of Warren Wilson Theatre’s “Power of Place” 2019-20 season, celebrating the 125th anniversary of Warren Wilson College. SWEAT is directed by Candace Taylor and runs April 11th, 12th, 18th, and 19th at 7:30 p.m. at Kittredge Theatre on the Warren Wilson College campus.
SWEAT takes place in Reading, Pennsylvania in 2000 and 2008. SWEAT tells the story of lifelong friends who spend their days together on the factory floor and many nights partying at a local bar. In a job market stretched thin by NAFTA and competition, layoffs and picket lines begin to erode the trust of the group, and they find themselves pitted against each other in a heart-wrenching fight to stay afloat in a turbulent economy. As the play continues, work tensions tumble into many other tensions– Which causes an explosive conclusion, leaving loved ones betrayed and others impacted for years to come.
All performances are open to the public.
For information: call (828) 771-3040, email [email protected] or follow us on Facebook, Warren Wilson Theatre-Crew.

Each year, the Week of the Young Child spotlights young children, families, and early educators. Buncombe Partnership for Children usually celebrates with a day of outdoor play and performance, but this year, we’re moving the party online!
It is so important to give hope to our children during what are uneasy times. We are excited for a fun-filled week of music, gardening, art, storytime, and family connection. Knowing that circumstances are different for everyone, we will focus on providing experiences you can enjoy wherever you are celebrating. All activities will be live-streamed and/or posted on YouTube.
There’s something special planned for each day of the week! For more information about Music Monday, Tasty Tuesday, Work Together Wednesday, Artsy Thursday, and Family Friday please visit https://www.facebook.com/events/216960056254414/.

Many shows that come to Broadway are inspired by other works, sometimes a book, a movie, a play, or something else entirely. These 12 shows all started as plays before they were adapted into films, which in turn became musicals and movie musicals.
