Join us on Thursday, January 20th at 4pm in the Georgian Room for a lecture with acclaimed writer, Christopher Swann, as he discusses his new novel A Fire in the Night which is about Highlands, North Carolina, a town many of you know well. Christopher Swann is a novelist and high school English teacher. A graduate of Washington and Lee, he earned his Ph.D. in creative writing from Georgia State University. He has been a Townsend Prize finalist, longlisted for the Southern Book Prize, and twice been a finalist for a Georgia Author of the Year award. Please call Concierge at 678.619.0474 to register and read more about Christopher and reviews on his book here.

It’s a laugh-out-loud love letter to the theatre, based on the Oscar®-nominated film. Featuring a Tony®-winning book by Robert Horn and an outrageously clever score by 2018 Tony® winner David Yazbek, this New York Times Critic’s Pick is a “hilarious, thoroughly modern Tootsie” that’s “even funnier than the movie!”
