About This Tour
Celebrating our 26th season! Truth is stranger than fiction. Who would have thought that a story about characters in a sleepy little southern town would have created such a stir? Shocking soirées! Scandalous affairs! Don’t let the Southern charm fool you! Even the rumors whispered beneath dripping Spanish mass are enough to make a man blush- and it’s all true! We are proud to present to you a lovely saunter through the pages of John Berendt’s runaway best seller Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. If you love gossip, you’ll love his tour!!
