JUNE 3 – 21, 2026

Moonlight and Magnolias at Third Avenue PlayWorks in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, is a comedy by Ron Hutchinson, a hilarious behind-the-scenes romp to rewrite Gone with the Wind in five days and save the film.

 

Moonlight and Magnolias will have a fifteen-minute intermission.

 

A hilarious behind-the-scenes romp!

It is three weeks into shooting Gone With the Wind and everything is falling apart. To save the film, Producer David O. Selznick stops production, locks his director and screenwriter in his office, and forces them to rewrite the entire script in five days! Based on (mostly) true events, this riotous, high-stakes comedy about the chaos and genius of moviemaking will leave you laughing out loud! And cheering!
