The Prisoner of Second Avenue by Neil Simon (PG-13) Directed by Sonia Smith
Mel Edison is a well-paid executive of a high-end Manhattan firm, which has suddenly hit the skids, and he gets the ax. His wife Edna takes a job to tide them over, then she too is sacked. Compounded by the air-pollution killing his plants, and with the walls of the apartment being paper-thin, allowing him a constant earfull of his neighbors private lives, things can’t seem to get any worse…Then he’s robbed, and his psychiatrist dies with $23,000 of his money. Mel does the only thing left for him to do-he has a nervous breakdown and it’s the best thing that ever happened to him…
“A gift for taking a grave subject and, without losing sight of its basic seriousness, treating it with hearty but sympathetic humor…A talent for writing a wonderful funny line…full of humor and intelligence. Fine fun.” – New York Post
Thursday through Saturday productions are at 7:30 P.m.
Sunday productions are at 2:30 p.m.

Heidi Holton Live at Blue Ridge Brewery
2019-04-26 18:00 - 21:00 | Blue Ridge Brewery, 187 Depot Street, Blue Ridge, GA, 30513, United States
Sit back and enjoy the vibe of downtown Blue Ridge while enjoying craft beers, delicious food, live music and fun with your friends.
Deep in the heart of southern Appalachia, sounds from the Mississippi delta echo through the lush mountain air. The ghosts of Son House, Robert Johnson, and Skip James slide across the fretboard of a well-worn Gibson guitar, haunting the delicate, yet strong, fingers of an emerging artist.
Heidi Holton is turning heads with her mastery of the music of the deep south. Original and fresh, traditional with a contemporary flair, her songwriting shines like the sweat glistening on the brow of a Piedmont preacher behind the pulpit on a sultry Sunday afternoon. Following in the footsteps of guitar-slingers like Memphis Minnie and Reverend Gary Davis, Heidi Holton is making a name for herself in the blues community.
