HOMETOWN ARTISTRY ON STAGE at THE REX
HOMETOWN ARTISTRY is an evening of one act plays written by our very own Patrick Butler and David Beach. First up is “Precipice” written and performed by Patrick Butler and directed by David Beach. In “Precipice”, love, memory, and grief have come to the edge of — everything. As the story of Melvin and his longtime marriage unfolds, told with wry humor, tenderness, and vulnerability, we see a man navigating the vast territory of love, aging, loss, and what it means to stand on the brink of the unknown — still reaching for the sun. Act two features David Beach’s new one-man play, “Lost & Found in Pulaski” which is a memoir of sorts (the names have been changed to protect the innocent and the guilty!). “Lost & Found in Pulaski” is a wise and charming tale of transformation in rural Virginia wherein the main character “lost the city and what he found wasn’t what he lost. After leaving the city behind, Russell finds himself in rural Pulaski, Virginia, trying to put down roots with his straight best friend, two eccentric Mormon neighbors, and a porch view offering strange comfort. Through memory, wit, and quiet revelation, ‘Lost and Found in Pulaski” explores queer belonging in unexpected places. The plays will be performed at the Rex Theatre in Galax, May 21, 22, 23 & 24, 2026.
Tickets will go on sale on our Box Office page starting on May 1st!
