SUMMARY:Free Drive-In Movie September 19
DESCRIPTION:Unicoi\, Tenn. —  The Town of Unicoi will host a free drive-in movie at its Tourist Information Center Saturday\, September 19\, at 8 p.m. at 106 Unicoi Village Place. Sound will be played through FM radio and concessions will be available. \n“We’ve never tried a drive-in movie before\,” said Communications and Programs Director Ashley Shelton. “But COVID has changed a lot of things this year and we’re just happy we’ve found a way to give the community something to do that’s relatively low risk.” \nThe recently relocated Clinchfield Caboose CRR111 will support the screen\, with cars lining up back through the Mountain Harvest Kitchen parking lot\, and the feature will be a family-friendly Disney movie. A map of the setup may be viewed on the town’s website in addition to the announcement of which Disney movie will be showing. The newly finished Buffalo Pavilion will house the concession stand and food-handling precautions will be taken\, including masks and gloves and one person to handle money while another handles the food in an effort to mitigate the risk of COVID-19 exposure. \n“This is exactly what we want to see at the Village Place Complex\,” said Town of Unicoi Mayor Johnny Lynch. “The pavilion\, visitor center\, kitchen and future amphitheater … just all of it working together to create a space that’s multifunctional and really useful to the residents and visitors.” \nConcessions will open at 7 p.m.\, including Little Caesars Pizza for $1 per slice or $6 for a whole pie (paper plates provided for less mess in vehicles). The movie will start at dark and guests are asked to remain in their vehicles except for restrooms and concessions\, and only one person from each car is allowed in the concession line.  Masks are required if out of the vehicle and guests are asked to please practice socially distancing. \nSpecial thanks to drive-in movie sponsors Unicoi Walmart\, Single Dad Homesteading and Erwin Record for their generosity and contribution to local community events. \nFor more information or for the name of the movie showing\, visit the Town of Unicoi’s Facebook page at facebook.com/townofunicoitn. Information is also available on the town’s website at UnicoiTN.net. \nTo speak to a coordinator\, contact Patricia Bennett at (423) 735-0517 or email questions to recreationaide@unicoitn.net

SUMMARY:A Spot on the Hill: On the Air!
DESCRIPTION:The popular annual play A Spot on the Hill\, written by Heritage Alliance director Anne G’Fellers-Mason\, usually performs before sold-out crowds at the historic cemetery in Jonesborough\, and features stories about the people buried there. This year\, due to COVID-19\, the cast was unable to perform as usual. However\, the Heritage Alliance is partnering with the StoryTown Radio Show this month to present a combined production: A Spot on the Hill: On the Air! \n\n“Anne and I have collaborated on so many projects together. When I heard that she was not going to be able to do her production\, I realized that our monthly StoryTown Radio Show and Podcast could provide an opportunity for the play to still take place- but as a radio style program\,” explained Jules Corriere\, McKinney Center Outreach Program Director and the writer and director of the StoryTown series. \n\nWhen Corriere presented the idea to Mason\, they both agreed it would be a great opportunity. The cast of A Spot on the Hill\, many of whom are regular performers on the StoryTown Radio Show and Podcast\, will perform their play after all. Corriere will book-end the performance with two or three local ghost stories to round out the hour\, and the production will be presented as a livestream on the StoryTown Facebook page as well as its own podcast episode on the StoryTown podcast channel. \n\n“I’m really happy that this important and creative work by the Heritage Alliance will still be presented\, even if it is in a different format. I really support the work of the Heritage Alliance\, and all they do for the community\,” continued Corriere\, who served for six years on the Board of Trustees for the organization. \n\nThe Livestream event will take place virtually on Monday\, October 26 at 7 p.m. The audio version will air on WETS 89.5 FM Johnson City on Wednesday\, October 28 at 8 p.m.\, and the podcast will be available starting Friday\, October 30 on the StoryTown podcast\, wherever you listen to podcasts. \n\nThe StoryTown Radio Show is sponsored in part by a grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission\, and is a project out of the McKinney Center and Jonesborough’s Mary B. Martin Program for the Arts.

SUMMARY:Theatre Bristol's Christmas Scenes
DESCRIPTION:Theatre Bristol celebrates Christmas this year by bringing its holiday show to its State Street storefront windows during the month of December. This stage right at the street features Christmas Scenes based on traditional stories of Santa\, Mrs. Claus\, and the elves. With a bit of improv and holiday spirit\, Santa’s world comes to life in five walkable scenes of “Santa\, Working from Home too\,” “The North Pole\,” “ ‘A Christmas Carol’ On the Air\,” “Elves at Work… Sort of\,” and “Presents Under the Tree.”\nIn the windows\, Santa and Mrs. Claus are busy at work\, checking lists\, mapping the reindeer journey\, responding to letters\, and reviewing the elves’ toy-making. Sometimes\, though\, it’s time to take a break and make some cookies\, decorate the tree\, or take a nap. Visiting children may catch a glimpse of a wink or a smile from Santa. The elves make toys and wrap gifts to Christmas music all around. There are surprises too\, every visit is a new experience.\nWhile we cannot present our usual holiday production because of COVID\, we are pleased to bring this Christmas production to this new “stage;” offer some joy; and even support downtown Bristol businesses and restaurants with a special attraction. Christmas Scenes gives our creative team and actors a safe opportunity to share their craft and we hope it keeps Theatre Bristol in everyone’s hearts during this time.\nThe activity is free of charge\, and the Santa schedule and updates are available on Theatre Bristol’s Facebook page and at www.TheatreBristol.org. Donations to support the performing arts can be made at TheatreBristol.org/donate.

SUMMARY:The Nutcracker Live Stream
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the Kingsport Ballet\, we are thrilled to announce a special livestream production of The Nutcracker on Friday\, December 18 at 6:00 PM streamed live straight from the NPAC stage!\nTickets may be purchased through Kingsport Ballet here.\nWe hope you will join us and experience the magic of The Nutcracker this Christmas season!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE NUTCRACKER\n The Ballet Music by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovksy\nChoreography by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov\n\nEvery year during the Christmas season\, thousands of children and their parents visit the theatre. Whatever the city\, the objective is the same: to see The Nutcracker\, considered a holiday classic all over the world. Since it’s not possible to gather in the theatre this year\, the Kingsport Ballet and NPAC are bringing The Nutcracker to you virtually!\nThe Nutcracker is a story ballet performed in two acts\, based on the German tale\, The Nutcracker and the King of Mice. Pyotr Tchaikovsky\, a prominent composer already famous for his ballet scores of Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty\, set it to music. It was choreographed by the legendary Marius Petipa.\nThe Nutcracker gives us a glimpse of old-world tradition. It provides the warmth\, laughter\, and delight of a family celebration\, while interweaving fantasy and mystery to create a tale that everyone can enjoy.\nMost of us have had a time in our lives when we have felt ugly or unimportant\, but then someone comes along who believes in us\, and loves us for who we are\, not what we look like or what we can do. This person becomes our hero or heroine\, forever holding a special place in our hearts\, and we want to do whatever we can to honor them and make them feel special in return. Clara in The Nutcracker is just such a heroine. When everyone else sees the Nutcracker as a worthless\, ugly\, wooden doll\, in Clara’s imagination\, he is instead a true\, kind-hearted hero. She loves him with all of her heart\, and because she shows kindness to him\, he gives her the most beautiful Christmas gift that she receives: the gift of a glorious dream. Watch along and you will discover the wonderful tale of The Nutcracker.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick Here To Purchase Tickets

SUMMARY:Town of Unicoi To Host Free Christmas Drive-In Movie November 14
DESCRIPTION:Town of Unicoi To Host Free Christmas Drive-In Movie November 14 \n\n\n\n\nUnicoi\, Tenn. — The Town of Unicoi will host its last free drive-in movie of the year Saturday\, November 14\, at 5:30 p.m. at the Tourist Information Center located at 106 Unicoi Village Place. Sound will be played through FM radio\, concessions will open at 5:30 p.m.\, a surprise visitor will arrive at 6 p.m. and the Christmas movie will begin at 6:30 p.m. \n“To finish up the year with a heart-warming Christmas favorite will give guests a little bit of hope\,” said Town of Unicoi Mayor Johnny Lynch. “Despite the pandemic\, the holiday season is still about family and believing in the magic of the season.” \nLike past events\, the Clinchfield Caboose will support the screen with cars lining up back through the Mountain Harvest Kitchen parking lot and event sponsor Ambrosound\, a local professional audio\, video\, lighting and staging company\, will handle all projection and audio. Organizers also tease that someone from the movie will make a surprise appearance during the festivities and have a special gift for every child. \n“I can give a little hint that the movie involves a train\,” said Communications and Programs Director Ashley Shelton. “Which will be a lot of fun since we’re showing it at the caboose. We definitely have some movie-themed surprises planned.” \n“We’ve really enjoyed the drive-in movies this year and we can’t wait for the Christmas-themed version\,” said Candice Jones\, local Unicoi resident\, mother of two and a winner of the Halloween Costume Contest held at the October movie. “It’s been hard with COVID keeping so many things either closed or canceled\, so these events have been a rare source of fun for our family.” \nConcessions will include hot dogs\, nachos and cheese\, hot chocolate\, cookies and more. The Doug Hopson Buffalo Pavilion will house the concession stand and food-handling precautions will be taken\, including masks and gloves and one person to handle money while another handles food in an effort to mitigate the risk of COVID-19 exposure. \nThe movie will start at dark and guests are asked to remain in their vehicles except for restrooms and concessions\, and only one person from each car is allowed in the concession line. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMasks are required when guests are out of the vehicle and everyone is asked to please practice social distancing. An event map may be viewed on the town’s website in addition to the announcement of which movie will be showing. \nSpecial thanks to drive-in movie sponsors Single Dad Homesteading\, Jones and Church Farms\, Reinhart Food Services\, Unicoi Walmart\, The Erwin Record\, Unicoi Dollar General and Erwin McDonalds for their generosity and support of local community events. \nFor more information or movie title\, visit the Town of Unicoi’s Facebook page at facebook.com/townofunicoitn.

Step back in time as you visit the fort\, militia camps\, British encampment\, and Native American camp. Be immersed in the 18th century as you witness daily aspects of colonial frontier life.

SUMMARY:Barter Theatre at Moonlight Drive-In: Always...Patsy Cline
DESCRIPTION:Always…Patsy Cline” is more than a tribute to the legendary country singer. The show is based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger\, who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk in l961\, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death. The musical play\, complete with down home country humor and true emotion\, includes many of Patsy’ unforgettable hits such as Crazy\, I Fall to Pieces\, Sweet Dreams and Walking After Midnight…. The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger\, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline.”
