Calling All Muggles! Inaugural Quidditch Tournament and Festival to Be Held at Blount Cultural Park---Benefitting the MMFA and ASF

Montgomery, AL- Join the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts and Alabama Shakespeare Festival in the Blount Cultural Park for an Inaugural Quidditch Tournament to be held Saturday, February 23 from 11 AM to 5 PM.  

Working in partnership, the Alabama Shakespeare Festival and the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts located in Montgomery’s Blount Cultural Park, are pleased to host Montgomery’s first Quidditch Tournament and Festival. The event has been organized to increase public awareness about the Blount Cultural Park, the charities, and to raise financial support for their programs.

Alabama State University's Department of Theatre Arts will bring to life one of classical theater's most beloved villains in Shakespeare's “King Richard III.” The play is directed by ASU faculty member Brian Martin and runs Nov. 7-17 at 7 p.m. nightly in ASU's Leila Barlow Theatre.

In “King Richard III,” the medieval king of England cuts through politics, power-mongers and even his own family to ascend and wear the crown. Before he makes his last moves to seal his position and enjoy the fruits of his ill-gotten gain, something stirs in him that stops him in his tracks -- his conscience.

The play is based on the same King Richard III whose remains were supposedly unearthed in England last month.Experts stress that the remains must be subjected to rigorous DNA testing, to be undertaken over the next three months, to be sure if it is him.
