Stephen Foster Story hosting special Fourth of July festivities

The Stephen Foster Drama Association is gearing up for their 25th-annual Fourth of July Celebration. 

According to the Drama Association, the Fourth of July is particularly significant to the organization as it not only recognizes the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, but also the birthday of Stephen Foster himself, fifty years later on July 4, 1826.

In celebration of both occasions, a family-friendly celebration will be held outside the J. Dan Talbott Amphitheatre prior to the 8 p.m. performance of The Stephen Foster Story on July 4. The celebration will include bouncy houses, games, and a cast meet and greet.

Guests for the show will be treated to cupcakes at intermission, and after the show they will have the best seats in the house for the fireworks display, along with an audience countdown and custom music for the spectacular.

Visit www.stephenfoster.com/tickets or call the box office (502-348-5942) to purchase tickets. The drama association says to purchase tickets early for this popular event.
