I’m writing because I am involved in a very exciting fundraiser. You all know that I love theater. Right now, more than ever, theater’s are struggling terribly. In tough times, the arts are considered a luxury. But we all know that we can’t exist without art. I’m doing my part to make sure that theater in Atlanta survives and thrives! Join me!

Ansley Wine Merchants will be the wine sponsor for the Essential Theatre’s first big fundraiser “Wine and Words: An Essential Evening of Georgia Wines and Playwrights”. On Sunday, June 27th, one of my favorite theatre companies in Atlanta will be at the Four Seasons, performing for you! This event, with food, service and space donated by the Four Seasons Hotel – will feature an auction, raffle, wine tasting and many performances from this years Essential Theatre Festival! A repertory of three plays, the annual festival is known for finding new amazing artists – playwrights, actors and more. Get to know Essential while enjoying wines from all over the United States – and featuring several Georgia wineries including Tiger Mountain, Wolf, and Frogstown – as well as other regional wineries like Biltmore Estates.
