SUMMARY
This Tony Award-winning play highlights a Jewish family's obsession with Ballyhoo, the cotillion for Southern Jewish society, as tensions rise in Europe and Gone with the Wind premieres in Atlanta in 1939. Populated with delightful characters and brimming with witty lines, The Last Night of Ballyhoo is a radiant true-to-life comedy framed by the family's struggle with anti-Semitism and quest for assimilation and identity.

The cast features Kyle A. Gibson (Peachy Weil), Yosh Hayashi (Adolf Freitag), Jason Karasev (Joe Farkas), Callie A. Munson (Boo Levy), Mira Vasiljevic (Reba Freitag), Logan Walters (Sunny Freitag) and Kate Weinberg (Lala Levy)
