April 28, 2014. Heritage Hall Theater, located in Mountain City, Tenn. has already begun its 2014 season of theater, music and more, and looks forward to continuing with spectacular entertainment at affordable prices for the community.
Started in 2005, Heritage Hall Theatre has been providing the community with quality entertainment for all ages. The theater itself can hold 388 spectators and is dedicated to presenting a variety of performances as well as hosting numerous community events throughout the year.
As with every year, Heritage Hall Theatre will present a spectacular lineup of plays, musical performances, musicals and more. Check out this season’s billing of great entertainment for the whole family.
On Tuesday, April 29, Heritage Hall Theatre will present “Don’t Cry for Me, Margaret Mitchell.”
Hilarious, irreverent and mostly true. It’s 1939, and David O. Selznick has already begun filming “Gone with the Wind” when he realizes his script is a dud. Only the legendary screenwriter Ben Hecht can save the day, but Hecht has never read the book! Selznick locks himself, Hecht and director Victor Fleming in his office with only bananas and peanuts to eat, and a single mission: help Hecht write a new script in exactly one week.
See the outrageous antics that produced one of the classic movies of all time. Heritage Hall will host Barter Theatre’s production of this hilarious play on Tuesday, April 29. Tickets are $15 in advance of $18 at the door.
Check out the rest of this season’s lineup at Heritage Hall Theatre in Mountain City.

The Wizard of Oz
The Wizard of Oz comes to the High Country for three nights May 9, 10 and 11 presented by JCHS Players and Johnson County Young Artists. Both the high school students and the young artists are really excited about combining efforts to produce this great American classic musical, complete with the munchkins, monkeys, witches, and of course Dorothy, the Scare Crow, the Tin Man, the Lion, and OZ ‘himself’.
