Frankly, my dears, you must see this play!

This June at the Arts Theatre, find out how the film Gone with the Wind was saved from being gone with the wind!

Written by Ron Hutchinson and directed by Harry Dewar, Moonlight and Magnolias is a hilarious farce which captures the behind the scenes madness of Gone with the Wind.

Hollywood, February 1939 - acclaimed movie producer David O. Selznick has a problem: his massively hyped production of Gone With The Wind is bleeding big money, the script is unfilmable, and the production has been shut down. Disaster looms! He needs a new script and a new director now or Gone With the Wind will be gone with the wind!



With renowned writer Ben Hecht (who hasn't read the book) and celebrated director Victor Fleming (who is up to his eyeballs in directing The Wizard of Oz), and a diet of bananas and peanuts, he locks himself in his office for five days to create a screenplay that will save the film.

Loosely based on real events, Moonlight and Magnolia is a wild portrait of Hollywood at its best: daring, desperate, and hysterically funny! Don't miss it!

The talented cast includes Adam Schultz as 'David O Selznick', Scott Battersby as 'Victor Fleming', Terry Crowe as 'Ben Hecht' and Rebecca Gardiner as 'Miss Poppenguhl'.
