Upcoming Event:
Storefront Theatre Production: Don’t Cry for Me Margaret Mitchell
It’s 1939, and three men – David O. Selznick, Victor Fleming, and Ben Hecht — have to rewrite the screenplay to Gone with the Wind in seven days… and one of them has never read the book. Hilarious, irreverent and mostly true. Playwrights Ernsberger and Cate always have us rolling in the aisles, but especially in this delightful comedy

Sunday, April 16 2:30 p.m. (sold out)
Our vision is a dynamic community of people from many backgrounds and cultures thriving together in The Waxhaws, across the country, and around the world.
Our mission is to help build that community by engaging people in our full history, celebrating its successes, acknowledging its failures, and seeking reconciliation and inclusion in the present.
