Julie, of Chatterbox fame, passed along something she said was right up my alley. She knew when she saw it to pass it along to me, the Gone with the Wind fan, book and doll collector and someone who has watched the movie so many times I know many of the lines .
Yes, I actually have a script from the movie. I know it’s kind of sad but I am a great fan of the lovely Scarlett. Maybe not a fan of those dresses being pulled so tight. Ouch…
Scarlett’s Southern Barbecue Spectacular! Meet up with Rhett, Scarlett, Melanie, Mammy, Ashley, and all the characters of Gone With the Wind on Friday August 29th. I originally wrote the event was at the Lockport Palace Theatre but it’s being held at the Riviera Theatre 67 Webster St.in North Tonawanda. Sorry for the mix up, the Riviera is a great place to see the Southern drama unfold and it all starts on Friday night. The dinner is at 5pm and the movie at 7pm.
The advance ticket price is $19.99 (at the door $25.00) There is All You can eat BBQ Chicken, Pulled Pork and Fixins. Ice Cream and Lemon Sorbet.

The BBQ that opens Gone with the Wind is more than just pulled pork, dancing and cigars. The link above is the first scene when Scarlett meets Rhett. It sets the tone for a long and rocky relationship.
Make yourself comfortable at the movie since it’s almost 4 hours long. History buffs and romantic movie fans will enjoy it.

Here’s a little more of Rhett and Scarlett set to music. Enjoy.
The big BBQ bash is actually going to take place friday at the Riviera theatre in North, Tonawanda, and not the Lockport Palace! The Riv is located at 67 Webster Street
North Tonawanda, NY 14120 (716)692-2413
It’s an easy mistake to make since we’ve been writing so much about the great things happening here at the Palace!!
Wow, Thanks for letting me know. I will go all over the place to see GWTW, but I need to know where exactly it is I’m going to end up!
I changed the blog entry. Thanks again!I’m sure the readers that are GWTW fans will check it out…
