  • ALABAMA STORY

    OCT 20-29, 2023

    A Studio 400 Production
    Written by Kenneth Jones
    Directed by Gavin Parmley

    Inspired by true events from 1959, as the Civil Rights movement is brewing, a segregationist State Senator and a no-nonsense State Librarian clash over the content of a children’s book. Meanwhile, a reunion of childhood friends — an African American man and a woman of white privilege — provides a private counterpoint to the public events swirling in the state capital. Political foes, star-crossed lovers, and one feisty children’s author inhabit a Deep South of the imagination that brims with humor, heartbreak, and hope.

    We're eagerly looking forward to welcoming Kenneth Jones, the celebrated author of Alabama Story, as our guest. Our audiences can anticipate a series of captivating talkbacks during opening weekend, including a special evening featuring Kenneth Jones alongside the remarkable banned book author and activist Nic Stone.

    Studio400 productions are intended for mature audiences.
