Jackson to Crossville would be a long ride, but it might be worth it. They do so many plays, plus they have two theatres and a good talent pool. They are also well funded, and it shows.

The link below is their website, which should be updated soon for the 2009 season.

I give them a plug ever chance I get.

> I don't get to catch many good plays in Jackson. I do plan on going to see "It's a Wonderful Life" at the Ned downtown, but the quality is pretty low for most people's standards. Don't get me wrong, they do a good job, but you just can't so much on such a tiny, if not non-existent, budget.

> If I want to go see a play, I normally make it a once a year outing to Memphis and watch an actual Broadway play at the Orpheum. I've seen Spamalot there and it was absolutely amazing. Couldn't ask for a better show. Our next adventure will be Wicked. Just waiting for tickets to go on sale. This is one that my wife is absolutely crazy for!
