THE HALLELUJAH GIRLS: Hilarity abounds when the feisty females of Eden Falls, Georgia, decide to shake up their lives. The action in this rollicking Southern comedy takes place in SPA-DEE-DAH!, the abandoned church-turned-day-spa where this group of friends gathers every Friday afternoon.

After the loss of a dear friend, the women realize time is precious, and if they’re going to change their lives and achieve their dreams, they have to get on it now!

Written by the team Jones Hope Wooten, aka Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten.

Performances are August 2-4 at the Cobbs Creek Arts Center, 61 Cobbs Creek Lane, Cobbs Creek.

DUCK HUNTER SHOOTS ANGEL: The uproarious story of two bumbling Alabama brothers who have never shot a duck but think they shot an angel. As they lament their fates in a murky swamp, they are chased by a cynical tabloid journalist and his reluctant photographer, who don’t believe any of it—until feathers, wings and a tiara are discovered along the way.

This play by Mitch Albom hysterically interweaves a love story, sibling rivalry, tawdry media, race relations and cultural stereotypes as the chase to find the angel builds to a crescendo in the swamp, but it is ultimately a sweet allegory about redemption.

Performances are Nov. 15-17 at the Cobbs Creek Arts Center, 61 Cobbs Creek Lane, Cobbs Creek.
