Synchronicity Theatre Kicks-Off 21st Season With Garden Soiree

The lush, green gardens at the beautiful Ansley Park home of Jane Harmon and Mikell Jones, served as the backdrop for Synchronicity Theatre's Season Kick-Off Party launching its 21st season of smart, gutsy, and bold theatre on August 22.

Top supporters and season subscribers were treated to scenes from upcoming productions, a performance by the award-winning Synchronicity Theatre's Playmaking for Girls program, yummy food, delightful drinks, and great company.

The staff was also presented with the 2018 Managing for Excellence Award from Lisa Cremin of the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta.
