In the Heat of the Night

In the Heat of the Night at Barter Theatre

April 19, 2018

 

Based on the award-winning book that inspired the Oscar-winning film and Emmy-winning television series, In the Heat of the Night, comes to the Barter Theatre stage.

​

It’s 1962.  A hot August night lies heavy over the small town of Argo, Alabama. A dead white man is discovered. The local police arrest a black stranger names Virgil Tibbs, but discover their prime suspect is a homicide detective from California. 

 

As it happens, Tibbs becomes the racially tense community’s only hope in solving a brutal murder that is turning up no witnesses, no motives and no clues. 

​

This exciting detective murder mystery story is enlarged by its vivid, shocking portrayal of what it meant to be an African American man in the deep south in the 1960’s.

​

Don’t miss this action-packed production which offers theatre-goers a distinctly new and timely version of In the Heat of the Night.
