Actors Renaissance Theatre presents: The HEAT of Southside

🔥 A Stage Play Written by Mary Ann Washington

Set against the vibrant backdrop of South Memphis, The Heat of Southside is an enthralling urban stage play exploring themes of family, betrayal, love, and ambition. After dedicating twelve years to helping her sister Luna with her bakery, Chloe decides to launch her own establishment, igniting a fierce rivalry that unearths longstanding wounds of loyalty and competition.

As their overbearing mother Darlene pressures the youngest daughter Kaylee into marrying wealthy Prince Rashad, Kaylee secretly yearns for the love of another man. Meanwhile, the charming yet deceitful Eddie Earl enters the scene, feigning the role of a food critic while plotting to rob the bakery. Intrigued by the family's tangled secrets and emotional turmoil, he finds himself caught in their chaos.

✨ This production promises a blend of comedy, romance, and dramatic twists, revealing that the real heat in this family doesn't come from the oven — it simmers within the bakery’s walls.
