Moonlight and Magnolias
October 6 – November 1, 2009
By Ron Hutchinson
Directed by Andrew Barnicle
Making movie history is not easy! Just ask film producer David O. Selznick, who stops the filming of Gone with the Wind three weeks into production because he wants a rewrite of the unwieldy script. He hires playwright Ben Hecht to do the job—in only five days! Only one problem: Hecht has never even read the novel. So, Selznick summons Hecht and Gone With the Wind director Victor Fleming to his office, locks the doors and closes the shades. Subsisting on a diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men spend five days crafting a screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful films of all time. This wildly funny and engaging tale illuminates the behind-the-scenes business of movie-making during the golden age of Hollywood.

Hi Laguna Playhouse, I look at your new pictures and I noticed an old friend in several of those photos. Please pass on the message to Kevin Symons. I went to college with Kev some years back. We went to COS and Cal state Fullerton back in those days. We even had a couple of theater classes together. I hope you can tell him I said hi. He knows me by Tommy Renfro. We once had a scene from a play that had the line, "Tiff toff taffity cream". Something like that. I believe he would remember. Best wishes.
High School Musical has been such a success that we hate to see it end :-( So, We have just created a new group for cast members and friends of High School Musical.
