From The 7 Fingers, the high-flying troupe behind the awe-inspiring stunts in the Alliance’s Broadway musical Water for Elephants, comes DUEL REALITY – an epic, cirque-infused performance inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.

ATLANTA PREMIERE!
ONE OF THE GREATEST AMERICAN SONGWRITERS LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD HIM BEFORE.
It’s 1934 in Duluth, Minnesota and a group of restless travelers find respite from the Great Depression in a modest boarding house— a place where love and loss intertwine, and where music, resiliaence and hope breathe life into their weary spirits. Connor McPherson daringly transforms the cherished songs of Bob Dylan, weaving them into a tale as breathtaking as the tunes that underscore it.
“When I first saw this on Broadway, I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was, so I went back a second time and loved it even more. The Tony-winning orchestrations of Bob Dylan’s songs lift them into a place of transcendent beauty.” – Freddie

Catching the Moon
The Story of a Young Girl's Baseball Dream
By Nichole Jackson
Music & Lyrics by Tyrone L. Robinson
Adapted from the book by Crystal Hubbard
Directed by Charity P. Jordan
Musical Direction by Javar La'trail Parker
Choreography by Angela Harris
February 20 - March 15, 2026
She didn’t just play the game—she changed it.
With the crack of a bat, Marcenia Lyle rounds the bases with ease and slides into home. Catching the Moon, a blues-infused musical, tells the spirited story of a young Black girl who grew up to become “Toni Stone,” the first woman to play for an all-male professional baseball team.
As a kid in the 1930s, Marcenia could outrun, outplay, and outshine anyone on the field—but she had to fight for every inning she got. When opportunity knocks in the form of a summer baseball camp run by the legendary Gabby Street, she faces a new challenge: proving she belongs in the game, no matter what the rules say.
Bursting with rhythm, drive, and heart, Catching the Moon celebrates the power of determination, the thrill of the game, and the courage it takes to change it forever.
A MUSICAL FOR ALL AGES - PERFECT FOR KIDS 4+UP!

ARTHUR MILLER'S
DEATH OF A SALESMAN
DIRECTED BY: MYRNA FELDMAN
Arthur Miller’s Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful and deeply human story about chasing the American Dream—and what happens when that dream slips out of reach.
Willy Loman, an aging traveling salesman, is struggling to make sense of a world that has passed him by. As his career falters and his relationships with his wife and sons unravel, Willy retreats into memories, clinging to visions of success and promises unfulfilled. Through a haunting mix of past and present, the play explores themes of identity, family, disillusionment, and the cost of misplaced ambition.

The Lehman Trilogy
By Stefano Massini. Adapted by Ben Power.
JANUARY 29 – FEBRUARY 15, 2026
Octagon Stage | Ages 12+
A sweeping theatrical adventure, tracing the rise and fall of an immigrant family from Montgomery, Alabama, to Wall Street.
From a small general store on Montgomery’s Commerce Street to unimaginable wealth on Wall Street, the Lehman Brothers epitomized the American Dream. Together, they built a firm that would shape — and later shake — the very foundation of global finance. The Lehman Trilogy explores ambition, identity, and the price of unchecked success.
Unforgettable
John-Mark McGaha Sings Nat King Cole
FEBRUARY 12 – FEBRUARY 15, 2026
Festival Stage | Ages 14 +
An unforgettable concert honoring legendary crooner Nat King Cole
The genius and warmth of Montgomery’s own Nat King Cole is brought to life by acclaimed singer, storyteller, and multi-instrumentalist John-Mark McGaha (The Ray Charles Legacy, Smokey Joe’s Cafe). In this romantic and heartfelt concert, McGaha leads a lush jazz ensemble as he reflects upon Cole’s trailblazing career with an intimate charm. With an extraordinary voice that BroadwayWorld calls “crystal-clear perfection,” McGaha croons classics such as “Unforgettable,” “Route 66,” “L-O-V-E,” “Straighten Up and Fly Right,” and “Mona Lisa.”
Jonas’s world is seemingly perfect. Everything is under control, and all are safe. There is no war, fear, or pain... and no choices. Everyone in Jonas’ community is assigned a role in life. Upon turning twelve, Jonas is chosen to train under the Giver, to receive and keep the memories of a history forgotten by the public. What he learns in his time with the Giver will change Jonas’s life and the fate of his world. Suitable for ages 10 and up.
Now, through the memories, he had seen oceans and mountain lakes and streams that gurgled through woods; and now he saw the familiar wide river beside the path differently. He saw all of the light and color and history it contained and carried in its slow-moving water; and he knew that there was an Elsewhere from which it came, and an Elsewhere to which it was going.
Meet Scout, Taylor, Elliot, Aubrey, and Misha, five friends who use their interests in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math to solve mysteries and problems in their own back yards. Growing up means growing apart when the group heads to middle school, but when one of their own is targeted by a bully at the science fair, the team gets back together for one more mystery.
Directed by Laurel Crowe.

Meanwhile, Baneatta’s son brings his anxious Jewish boyfriend, anticipating his mother’s disapproval, and Beverly’s daughter persists with probing questions.

Get ready to gasp and clutch your pearls.
For Beatrice and Benedick, wit is a full-contact sport, and each is happy to throw some elbows, believing themselves to above something as trivial as “love.” But would they really be pushing back if they weren’t…fighting against something? Their friends sure see right through all their bickering and sparring into what is hiding in their hearts. Sometimes a stubborn soul just needs that proverbial kick in the pantaloons to get out of their own way.

Based on the best-selling book by Cheryl Strayed and adapted for the stage by Nia Vardalos, Tiny Beautiful Things personifies the questions and answers that “Sugar” was publishing online from 2010-2012. When the struggling writer was asked to take over the unpaid, anonymous position of advice columnist, Strayed used empathy and her personal experiences to help those seeking guidance for obstacles both large and small. Tiny Beautiful Things is a play about reaching when you’re stuck, healing when you’re broken, and finding the courage to take on the questions which have no answers.
A playful new adaptation of Jane Austen’s beloved novel follows the fortunes (and misfortunes) of the Dashwood sisters—sensible Elinor and hypersensitive Marianne—after their father’s sudden death leaves them financially destitute and socially vulnerable. Set in gossipy late 18th-century England, with a fresh female voice, the play is full of humor, emotional depth, and bold theatricality. SENSE AND SENSIBILITY examines our reactions, both reasonable and ridiculous, to societal pressures. When reputation is everything, how do you follow your heart?
Jane Austen's romance runs February 6-15, 2026
"A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” is a darkly comedic musical about Monty Navarro, a penniless clerk who discovers he is in line to inherit the Earldom of Highhurst. However, he realizes he is 9th in line, and chooses to eliminate the D’Ysquith family members ahead of him to achieve his inheritance. The story also explores his romantic relationships with Sibella Hallward and Phoebe D’Ysquith.
Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors is a fast-paced, farcical take on Bram Stoker’s classic vampire tale. Written by Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen, this version blends gothic horror with over-the-top comedy, featuring just a handful of actors playing dozens of roles. The story follows the familiar plot of Count Dracula’s arrival in England and his clash with vampire hunter Professor Van Helsing—but with a hilarious twist. Full of quick costume changes, slapstick humor, and clever wordplay, the play is a high-energy romp that keeps audiences laughing while playfully honoring the original legend.
Show Dates: February 6th – 15th, 2026

After scenes of intense physical and emotional struggle, Helen's breakthrough finally arrives with the utterance of a single, glorious word: "water."

Murder, Mystery, & Mayhem
Gimme Hamilton, Or Gimme Me Death
February 20 - May 16
(Fri / Sat / Sun)
Featuring the all-star production, cast, and crew formerly of Agatha’s: A Taste of Mystery, Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem at Petite Violette is an interactive murder mystery dinner unlike any other. The event showcases unique, original, hilarious murder mysteries with live actors and audience participation, paired with a four-course dinner of fine French food. Shows run on Friday nights at 7:30 p.m., Saturday nights at 7 p.m., and Sunday matinees at 3:30 p.m. (check-in starts half an hour earlier). The cost per person is $75 plus tax and gratuity. Seating is family-style, so guests get a chance to sit with the star of the show. Reservations required, via our website.
Here ye! Here ye! Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem starts 2026 with a trip back to Colonial America! A time of Washington, Adams, Hamilton. Of powdered wigs, horse drawn carriages, and contemporary music (sure – why not). It’s also a time... of... murder!
The year is 1774. American colonists are at odds with King George III and the British Parliament over excessive taxation and reduced liberties. Delegates from the colonies meet to discuss the foundation for self-governance and a complete break from England. Actually, that sounds SUPER boring! The real story gripping the colonies is the mysterious death of rising songsmith Jeremiah “Lil’ Musket” Big-Britches. Lil’ Musket sings hippity-hoppity songs, and usually ones where he unapologetically boasts of his own success and lavish colonial lifestyle – really, Lil’ Musket? You need 3 horse drawn carriages? Really?
Such good fortune has made many other colonial hippity-hoppity artists jealous. But is their resentment so strong they would reach for their musket, then pour gunpowder from the powder horn into a powder measure, then empty that into the barrel of the musket, then place a pillow ticking patch over the barrel hole, then balance the musket ball on the pillow ticking patch, then grab the ramrod and push the ball down the barrel of the musket until it’s good and seated? And then, place a dry piece of flint in the jaw of the musket’s mechanism and fasten it securely.... you know what? It’s already too much work. Who will lead the colonies to victory? Why is someone killing hippity hoppity icons? What is for dessert? Just come to ye olde Petite Violette for a feast of fun, and find out!
