It's the end of another week, and you know what that means. It's time for another exciting weekend of awesome entertainment!
First up, check out the best kept secret in Central Georgia as Theatre Macon presents that magical musical, The Secret Garden.
When young Mary Lennox is orphaned in British-occupied India, she is sent to England to live with her only remaining relatives, a reclusive uncle and a sickly, sheltered cousin. While there, Mary must contend with the cruel housekeeper, Mrs. Medlock. But, she also finds friendship in the unlikeliest of places.
The secret is out on this amazing production! Beautiful sets, a remarkable cast and incredible music make this one unforgettable show.
Check it out this Friday and Saturday at 8 P.M. There's no Sunday matinee. The final two shows are next Thursday and Friday. Visit www.theatremacon.com for ticket information.
From the secret garden to the great outdoors, it's festival time!

The super-talented Packway Handle Band will kick off a full day of music at 10 A.M and be back for an encore at 1 P.M. The Redline Express will also be showing off their unique sound.
Check it all out this Saturday. The Easter egg hunt starts at 11 A.M., try to get there a little early to get in line. From kids activities to live music and festival food, it's a great day to get out and spend time with the family!
