HAYWOOD COUNTY NC EVENTS

Become part of a jazz-drenched 1920's party in HART Theatre’s immersive production of Andrew Lippa’s Wild Party! Set over the course of one explosive night, The Wild Party follows Queenie and Burrs, two vaudeville performers caught in a volatile relationship. Queenie decides to throw a party in their apartment, filling the room with an extraordinary collection of performers, dreamers, lovers, and strangers, each arriving in search of something: love, attention, escape, excitement, or simply the chance to feel alive. When the mysterious Black arrives and catches Queenie’s attention, jealousy takes hold and the balance between her and Burrs begins to shift. As the party grows wilder, masks begin to slip and an evening built on excess and escape spirals toward danger and betrayal. Beneath the jazz, laughter, and decadence is a darker story about desire, control, and the truths waiting when the music finally stops. Get your tickets here or by visiting HART’s website!

Clyde the Bobcat is bringing back his creepy (and sometimes cute) friends for a Halloween conservation night at Haywood Community College! Walk the spooky botanical trail, enjoy a variety of interactive activities, and watch a live critter demonstration by Balsam Mountain Trust at 5:00 p.m. This family-friendly event is free and open to the public.
