We’re handing out candy, giving you the chance to meet all of your favorite Mario characters, and maybe even win one of three Nintendo Switches! Ralphie’s Fun Center will be turned into your favorite Mario worlds. Skate in 8bit with Retro Mario, bowl in the Desert Kingdom, play mini-golf on Yoshi Island, make s’mores and watch movies in Fire Flower Fields, and take on the baddies with laser tag in Bowser’s Kingdom. Defeat King Boo by collecting your candy in the Mushroom Kingdom! Add it to your calendar, invite a friend, and break out your favorite Mario gear - you won’t want to miss Boo Bash. It’s more fun than outrunning a bob-omb!

THE SAVANNAH SIPPING SOCIETY

A JONES HOPE WOOTEN COMEDY 


In this delightful, laugh-a-minute comedy, four unique Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by Fate—and an impromptu happy hour—and decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve lost through the years. Together, they discover lasting friendships and a renewed determination to live in the moment—and most importantly, realize it’s never too late to make new old friends.


RATED PG


Directed by Rick Barnes



THE SAVANNAH SIPPING SOCIETY is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection.
