“Memphis the Musical” is coming to Jonesboro, AR, produced by Center Stage Productions in conjunction with the Arkansas State University Theatre Department. We are so excited about bringing this opportunity to NEA! Come visit us in the Astate Drama Theater, where we will be following a beautiful story inspired by actual events that occurred close to home.
Memphis is about a white radio DJ who wants to change the world and a black club singer who is ready for her big break. Come along on their incredible journey to the ends of the airwaves– filled with laughter, soaring emotion, and roof-raising rock ‘n’ roll. Winner of four 2010 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and two 2015 Olivier Awards, Memphis features a Tony-winning book by Joe DiPietro and a Tony-winning original score with music by Bon Jovi founding member David Bryan.

Our Second Annual Balls of Fury Ping-Pong Tournament benefitting local charitable organizations will take place on April 2nd, 2023.You can sign up at Native or by emailing ellen@nativebrewworks.com
It’s $15 to enter and all of those fees will go into a pool that the WINNER gets to donate to a local non-profit/charity.
We have also selected EIGHT non-profits/charitable organizations in our community to benefit from this event (details on each to come later this week). When you sign up you will choose which one you would donate the money to if you won. All eight non-profits will be represented by a jar in the taproom.
Every time anyone (spectators or participants) orders a b**r the week leading up to the tournament, they will receive a token worth $1 they can put in whichever jar they choose – so essentially a dollar of every b**r is being donated to a local charity, but YOU get to choose which one. We’ve also got prizes for the winners, obviously!
