WORLD PREMIERE
Join Central Kentucky Theatre as we present the WORLD PREMIERE of a brand new hilarious comedy "The Southern Gent" by Christopher Noyes! We are thrilled and honored to produce this high energy farce for the very first time on our stage - come be a part of the fun and laugh along with this never before seen play!
Synopsis: “With a rare gem in tow, Collin Klept–a crafty young New Yorker who grew up on the streets–hightails it South in an attempt to escape with his precious cargo; however, a run-in with Agent Gunderson–his current pursuant and longtime nemesis–derails Collin’s escape plans, forcing him to hide in the first haven he can find in the South Carolina boonies: an old-money plantation house owned by the Roberts’ family. Pretending to by the Roberts’ butler, Collin sets his sights on adding to his bounty, but the dysfunctional Roberts aren’t making it easy on him. Will Collin keep up his guise as a serving man under the noses of a drunken patriarch, an overbearing and eccentric grandmother, polar opposite teenage twins, a sharp-as-a-whip head butler, or an alluring debutante older sister, or will Collin find himself in Agent Gunderson’s grasp before he can escape the Roberts’ antebellum-esque mansion? Or will Collin, in this modern farce, find himself discovering riches far greater than gems?"

"A fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the adored movie, Legally Blonde The Musical, follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes and scandal in pursuit of her dreams. Action-packed and exploding with memorable songs and dynamic dances - this musical is so much fun, it should be illegal! Elle Woods appears to have it all. Her life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Warner dumps her so he can attend Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school. While there, she struggles with peers, professors and her ex. With the support of some new friends, though, Elle quickly realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world."
