Celebrating it's 30th anniversary, And the Ball & All is the longest running theater show in New Orleans! Appearing will be original cast members Becky Allen, Yvette Hargis, and Tracey Collins who have been with the show since 1995! Yvette said, “We’re finally the actual age of the characters we’ve been playing!”
Also in the cast is Mandy Zirkenbach, who has performed in the show since 1997. Ball alums Lisa Picone Love and Jessie Terrebonne Thompson round out the cast with newcomer Ashley Smetherman Lemmler – the fabulous comic villain in Rivertown’s recent production of Hairspray.

Besides Twelfth Night and King Cakes everywhere, nothing says “Carnival’s here” like AND THE BALL AND ALL!
