"... director Tracie Lango creates a show just bursting with energy. ... most energetic of all are the stellar performances of the three core actors. ..." - Hugh Hunter, Chestnut Hill Local

"... the writing of the script for 'Gone With The Wind', ... wrapped up in a screwball physical comedy. The Stagecrafters' production has a lot ... going for it." - Arnie Finkel, STAGE Magazine

"...Jeff Ragan takes the title of the best David O. Selznick yet... [Carl] Heyde’s channeling of the character Prissy alone is worth the price of admission...." - Katelyn Foti, Chestnut Hill Patch

Moonlight and Magnolias

THE CAST
DAVID O. SELZNICK	Jeff Ragan
VICTOR FLEMING	Carl Heyde
BEN HECHT	Mark Grayson
MISS POPPENGUHL	Judy Kinsley

This mile-a-minute go-round revolves around the complete script rewriting of Gone With the Wind after producer David O. Selznick, dissatisfied with the progress of his intended masterpiece, stops production flat and entrusts the new script to Ben Hecht ... who has never read the book! What follows is inspired farce, rip-roaring, brimming with witty dialogue – both a satire of and a tribute to movie-making in the old Hollywood. Based upon a real-life happening.

Directed by Tracie Lango
