Ansley Park Playhouse is the home of "Peachtree Battle," the hilarious comedy that has become Atlanta's longest running theatre production. It celebrates it's four-year anniversary in September 2005 and shows are STILL sold out. The comedy tells the story of the battling Habershams family, led by a matriarch dealing with her gay son, alcoholic mother, and her straight son who's engaged to a Hooter's Girl. Writers John Gibson and Anthony Morris keep the script fresh by throwing in lines about current events and a host of local celebrities have had walk-on parts, including WSB-TVe anchor Monica Kauffman, who's ever-changing hair styles have long been a running joke in the show. Gibson and Morris will soon premiere a new show, "Sunday Afternoon At Loehmanns" and "Peachtree Battle 2" is in the works.
