Set deep within the mysterious Tombigbee Swamp, Wiley and The Hairy Man centers around a young fatherless boy, his conjure-woman Mother, his faithful Hound Dog and the Hairy Man who haunts Wiley’s days and dreams. In an exciting duel of wits, Wiley learns to rely on his own resources and conquers two villains: the Hairy Man and his own fear.

If you're ready to join us in the theatre as Wiley fends off the Hairy Man in the wilds of the Tombigbee swamp, we think you will also enjoy stories as told by faculty member Rives Collins!  Spooky tales, funny tales, with perhaps a folk song or two to add spice — our storyteller will ignite the imaginations of listeners as families experience stories together.  Appropriate for children 5 and up, and for the young at heart of all ages.

Tickets: General admission: $5 general public or FREE to Family Series subscribers with advance reservations!  Single tickets will go on sale May 28.
