Clue! presented by Renaissance Theatre
@ Renaissance Theatre Main Stage, Friday & Saturday 7:30-9:30pm & Sunday 2:30-4:30pm
This inspired take on the popular Parker Brothers board game is never boring, always funny, and benefits from superb casting. Another fine aspect of the play is its multiple endings. The murders start to pile up, getting sillier and sillier! If you are familiar with the board game, just picture a play of the search for “whodunit”. This laugh-a-minute fun fest is loaded with outrageous, silly slapstick, superbly acted out by a great cast. One of those irresistibly zany comedy-mysteries that is a laugh riot from start to finish.

Southern Hospitality presented by Theatre Huntsville
@ Von Braun Center Playhouse, Friday & Saturday 7:30-9:30pm & Sunday 2-4pm
The Futrelle Sisters are in trouble again. Fayro, Texas, is in danger of disappearing and folks have been leaving in droves. To woo a salsa factory to town, Honey Raye creates “Fayro Days”, which includes a craft show, a pet costume parade, a beauty pageant and a huge Civil War battle reenactment (with only 15 participants). So now it’s up to the citizens of Fayro to pull together and save their town. Southern Hospitality is a testament to Southern strength and ingenuity—and a recipe for total hilarity.
