The City of Conversation: Horizon Theatre Atlanta

The City of Conversation: Horizon Theatre Atlanta

Just in time for the elections this year, here comes another great play at the Horizon Theatre that centers around decades of a political family. Now with the internet and cell phones that are computers most conversations are had over the internet, however in this bound to be controversal and hilarious, there are a lot of face to face conversations that are guaranteed to be heated.

Washington DC was once a place where people actually talked to each other… savvy maven Hester Ferris opens her home for political foes to lay down arms and raise a glass. But that is all about the change. Colin, her beloved son, brings home a Reaganite girlfriend and a shocking new conservative world view rocking Hester’s world. Follow the Ferris family from the end of the Carter presidency through the Reagan era and into Obama’s game-changing inauguration. Hailed as “juicy…smart, literate, and funny,” (The New York Times) and “pointed and provocative…stirring and entertaining (Entertainment Weekly),and featuring headliners Tess Kincaid, Chris Kayser and Carolyn Cook, Horizon’s The City of Conversation runs May 20 through June 26, 2016.

Performances are Wed., Thurs. and Fri. at 8 PM, Sat. at 3 PM and 8:30 PM, and Sun. at 5 PM at Horizon Theatre in Little Five Points/Inman Park (1083 Austin Avenue NE Atlanta, GA 30307). Tickets, starting at $25, and information are available at Horizon Theatre or 404.584.7450.

I will be looking for you and maybe after this play we will have our own up close and personal political conversation. Hope to see you at The City of Conversation: Horizon Theatre Atlanta on opening night.
