Famed socialite Tracy Lord is planning a lavish wedding at her Oyster Bay estate, despite the meddling of her ex-husband and a couple of snooping reporters. Based on the 1939 play, “The Philadelphia Story,” with Katharine Hepburn and the 1956 musical film starring Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby, and Frank Sinatra, High Society sparkles with Porter standards such as “Ridin High,” “She’s Got That Thing,” “True Love,” “Let’s Misbehave, and “Well, Did You Evah?”

Join Wheeler Theatre for an elegant, ‘swellegant’ night of mayhem, moonlight, and gorgeous music! High Society is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals, with music and lyrics by Cole Porter, book by Arthur Kopit, and additional lyrics by Susan Birkenhead. The production is directed by Atlanta theatre favorite Nick Morrett, with music direction by Thomas Chafin and choreography by Elizabeth Neidel Wexler. Rated PG (11 & up) for depiction of social drinking.
