The Man Who Came to Dinner stage production (Rated PG)

“Snooty critic Sheridan Whiteside is invited to dinner at the home of the Stanleys, where he slips on their doorstep and breaks his hip. Six weeks later, the Stanley household is still monopolized by the cranky and demanding invalid who insults the family, runs up a $784 phone bill, and receives strange gifts from his friends (penguins! cockroaches! an octopus!) – all of which cause further chaos.

Some material in The Man Who Came to Dinner may contain some material parents might not like for their young children. Asheville Community Theatre gives the show a movie rating of PG – Parental Guidance Suggested.”

The Secret Garden stage production (Pre-K-5th grade)

Saturdays at ACT!

“This classic tale of growth and wonder has never been so entertaining. Bright Star’s rendition of The Secret Garden is retold by our lovable comic duo Lenny and Mabel. Together, they bring to life the charming characters and lively scenes that make Frances Hodgson Burnett’s story so wonderful. This play is full of lessons about perseverance, believing in yourself and helping those around you. Along with these important lessons, humor and playful moments breathe life into this magical story about transforming the world around us.”

Trickster Tales From Around the World stage production (Pre-K-5th grade)

Saturdays at ACT!

“Almost every culture had tales of wily tricksters. In West Arica they had Anansi the spider, the Native Americans had the fox and in India they used a monkey to spin yarns of mischief and trickery. Attic Salt Theatre Company brings a few of these tales to life. Will the tricksters always come out on top? Or might it be that even the craftiest animals can be bested? Come find out!”

Puppy Bowl 2019!

Get ready for a seriously awesome Super Bowl Sunday as social media superstar Grey the vegan rapper (Official Grey Music) hosts Hendersonville’s Sanctuary Brewing Company’s 4th annual Puppy Bowl! The festivities, which benefit Brother Wolf Animal Rescue and Sweet Bear Rescue Farm will take place at Kanuga Conference & Retreat Center on Sunday, February 3rd.

For those new to the canine competition, adoptable puppies play an incredibly cute game of rough-and-tumble football while onlookers (and potential adopters) drink craft beer and cheer them on! This year’s halftime show will feature a musical performance by Grey as well as adoptable senior dogs.

Sanctuary Brewing Company will be serving brews, locally-based plant meat makers No Evil Foods & Garlik Vegan Kitchen will be serving eats, and there’ll be a Pop-Up Pup Photo Booth on site by Indulge Images.

While in past years it was hosted at Sanctuary Brewing Company’s location in downtown Hendersonville, the epic annual event of adorableness has become so big that the staff is moving the event to the gymnasium at nearby Kanuga Conference & Retreat Center to accommodate all the fans!

With more than 150k Instagram followers and hundreds of thousands of views of his original viral rap video, Vegan Thanksgiving, Grey is a legitimate phenomenon. He’s so influential that he’s introducing mega-celebs to veganism. Recently, actress Jada Pinkett-Smith shared Grey’s Thanksgiving rap video with her 4.9 million Instagram followers.

“We are beyond excited for the 2019 Puppy Bowl,” says Sanctuary Brewing Company Co-Owner Lisa McDonald. “Grey is an incredible host, the event is going to be the biggest it’s ever been – and we’re going to get so many puppies adopted! It’s literally our favorite day of the year.”

“We are thrilled to host Puppy Bowl 2019,” says Kanuga Conferences Inc. President, Michael Sullivan. “It’s a fun event that gives back to our community in such a wonderful way by benefitting two local organizations and we are excited to be a part of that.”

This year’s lineup includes Team Tuff and Team Gruff, and all players will be available for adoption from Brother Wolf Animal Rescue.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. A $75 VIP option will get you field-side seats and a t-shirt! Tickets can be purchased at http://bit.ly/PuppyBowl2019.

Proceeds from this year’s Puppy Bowl will benefit Sweet Bear Rescue Farm and Brother Wolf Animal Rescue.
