If you’ve never understood the concept of the term, "hangry," you’ll get it after seeing this delightfully fun, romp of a show. A vacationing couple decides to splurge and celebrate their anniversary at a Greek restaurant in Palm Springs. To make sure their meal is worth it they decide to not eat anything all day until they get to the restaurant. And, when a somewhat mis-focused, intrusive waiter insinuates his way into their meal and their lives it becomes a tasty recipe for mayhem.

In “The Thanksgiving Play,†good intentions collide with absurd assumptions in Larissa FastHorse’s wickedly funny satire, as a troupe of terminally “woke†teaching artists scrambles to create a pageant that somehow manages to celebrate both Turkey Day and Native American Heritage Month. Larissa FastHorse (a proud member of the Sicangu Lakota Nation) is a 2020 MacArthur Fellow, award-winning writer and choreographer, and co-founder of Indigenous Direction, the nation's leading consulting company for Indigenous arts and audiences. The New York Times said that “The familiar, whitewashed story of Pilgrims and Native Americans chowing down together gets a delicious roasting from expert farceurs.†The Hollywood Reporter wrote, “Very, very funny. ‘The Thanksgiving Play’ skewers liberal pretensions with glee – this clever satire is something for which to be truly thankful.â€

Halloween celebrations begin a bit early at the App with the October 28 screening of Beetlejuice, the 1988 Academy Award winning film directed by Tim Burton and starring
Michael Keaton, Alex Baldwin, Geena Davis and Winona Rider. It’s a wildly creative and campy film about a happy couple with a lovely country house who die in a car accident and must haunt their old home while waiting to be processed into heaven. Too nice to be scary, they befriend the new tenant's daughter. When they fail to prevent the girl's parents from ruining the house, they ask a devilish spirit for help.
Patrons and supporters of the Appalachian Theatre should note that the venue is committed to the health and safety of its community and will continue to follow the guidance of health and governmental officials in the development and implementation of COVID related policies.

Directed by Keith Martin
November 3 through 6 at 7 p.m., November 7 at 2 p.m., Valborg Theatre
Inspired by a true story and featuring the Tony®-nominated score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, Broadway’s “Bright Star†tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in North Carolina of the 1920s and ‘40s. When literary editor Alice Murphy meets a young soldier just home from World War II, he awakens her longing for the child she once lost. Haunted by their unique connection, Alice sets out on a journey to understand her past. What she finds has the power to transform both of their lives. With beautiful melodies and powerfully moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion. An uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tightly in its grasp, “Bright Star†is as refreshingly genuine as it is daringly hopeful.
Produced by special arrangement with Theatrical Rights Worldwide.
