An Evening with Fannie Flagg, a fundraiser for the Virginia Samford Theatre, will be Nov. 20 at the historic theater.
Guests are invited to a rare and personal live interview with Flagg, who will discuss her career as an actress and best-selling author. The event also marks the release of Flagg’s new novel, “I Still Dream About You,” which highlights her early years in Birmingham.
Her best-known book is “Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café.” She also wrote the Academy Award-nominated screenplay for the 1991 movie “Fried Green Tomatoes.”
General admission tickets are $35 for the 7:30 p.m. theatre interview and a signed copy of Flagg’s new book. Premium tickets are $250 and include the interview and an exclusive 6:15 p.m. cocktail reception with Flagg. Other premium tickets are $100 for the interview and a 6:45 p.m. wine reception with Flagg.
All proceeds benefit the Virginia Samford Theatre’s preservation fund.
