126 N. St. Andrews St. Dothan, AL 36303

Welcome to Las Vegas meets Arena Rock.
Hairball isn’t just a concert—it’s a full-blown, high-octane Rock & Roll experience! For over 25 years, Hairball has brought the thunder across the country, paying explosive tribute to the legends of the ‘80s with a 2+ hour show packed with the biggest hits of Van Halen, KISS, Queen, Motley Crue, Journey, Aerosmith, and more.

It’s more than music—it’s smoke, screaming guitars, and spot-on recreations of the greatest rock shows ever staged.

If you grew up on ‘80s rock, this is your night. If you didn’t—you’ll wish you had.

SEACT Presents The Birds

7:00 pm to 10:00 pm

Daphne du Maurier’s short story, also the basis for Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film, is boldly adapted by Conor McPherson—a gripping, unsettling, and moving look at human relationships in the face of societal collapse. In an isolated house, strangers Nat and Diane take shelter from relentless masses of attacking birds. They find relative sanctuary but not comfort or peace; there’s no electricity, little food, and a nearby neighbor may still be alive and watching them. Another refugee, the young and attractive Julia, arrives with some news of the outside world, but her presence also brings discord. Their survival becomes even more doubtful when paranoia takes hold of the makeshift fortress—an internal threat to match that of the birds outside.

SEACT Studio productions emphasize performance and process, giving directors and actors the opportunity to explore their craft over a shortened rehearsal period. Staged in an intimate black box setting with minimal technical elements, these productions offer a unique theatrical experience for participants and audience members alike.

JJ Grey & Mofro: Olustee Tour with Miles Miller

7:30 pm to 10:30 pm

Steve Hall Productions Present
JJ Grey & Mofro: Olustee Tour
at The Plant in Dothan, AL
Oct 9th | Gates 6:00p | Show 7:30p

www.jjgrey.com
www.facebook.com/MOFROBAND
www.instagram.com/jjgreymusic
www.youtube.com/JJGreyMusic
www.tiktok.com/@jjgreymusic
www.soundcloud.com/jj-grey-mofro
www.pandora.com/artist/jj-grey-and-mofro/AR6lmj4zPvp6klk

According to musician, singer and songwriter JJ Grey, “The best songs I’ve ever written, I never wrote. They wrote themselves. The best show I ever played, played itself and had little to do with me or talent. To me, those things come from the power of an honest moment, and I guess I’m trying to live in that power and not force life to cough up what I want.”

Since his first album, Blackwater, back in 2001, Grey has been releasing deeply moving, masterfully written, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music. Now, with his new album, Olustee – his tenth and first in nine years, and the first he has self-produced – Grey is back, singing his personal stories with universal themes of redemption, rebirth, hard luck, and inner peace. With his music, Grey also celebrates good times with lifelong friends, oftentimes mixing the carnal with the cerebral in the very same song. Fueled by his vividly detailed, timeless originals spun from his own life and experiences in the Northern Florida swampland, Grey’s gritty baritone drips with honest passion and testifies with a preacher’s foot-pounding fervor.

With Olustee, JJ Grey has once again pushed the boundaries of his own creative musical, lyrical and vocal talents, delivering an album that is destined to become a stone-cold classic. Many of the songs are all steeped in the mythical Southern stories of his ancestral Florida home and filled with people from JJ’s life. The songs overflow with the sights and sounds of the region as told through the eyes of a poet and sung with pure, unvarnished soul. The album’s ten songs range from the introspective opener The Sea to the raucous, celebratory first radio single, Wonderland, to an escape from an out-of-control wildfire in the title track, to the inward-looking closer, Deeper Than Belief. Singing of his own personal triumphs and struggles, his hopes and desires, his friends and family, Grey’s message is simple and strong: respect the natural world and always try to live in the moment. And never forget the importance of having a good time.

Grey made his recording debut in 2001 with Blackwater, following up in 2004 with Lochloosa. Both albums were released on the Fog City label under the name Mofro, a moniker the young Grey chose to describe his music and sound while still working his day job at a lumberyard. He has since used the word to name his band of world-class players. In 2007, Grey signed with Alligator Records and released a string of five popular and successful albums: Country Ghetto, 2008’s Orange Blossoms, 2010’s Georgia Warhorse, 2011’s live CD/DVD Brighter Days and 2013’s This River. Ol’ Glory was released on the Provogue label in 2015. Throughout this amazing run of releases, press, radio and years of touring helped catapult JJ Grey & Mofro further into the mainstream.

JJ Grey & Mofro have played countless festivals, including Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, Austin City Limits Festival, Byron Bay Blues Festival (Australia), Montreal Jazz Festival and Fuji Rock (Japan). Over the course of his career, Grey has shared stages with the likes of Lenny Kravitz, B.B. King, The Allman Brothers Band, The Black Crowes, Los Lobos, Jeff Beck, Ben Harper, Booker T. Jones, Mavis Staples, and many others. Grey and his band continue to play over 75 shows a year across the U.S. and around the world.

JJ’s songs have appeared in films and on television, including on House Of Cards, Criminal Minds, Bones, House, Flashpoint, Crash, Friday Night Lights, The Glades, The Deadliest Catch and in films including The Hoot and The Gray Man. In November 2009, JJ wrote his first film score for the critically-acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning documentary The Good Soldier, which appeared in theatres and on Bill Moyers Journal on PBS.

Grey, an avid outdoorsman, is a dedicated fisherman, a skilled visual artist (he has designed and drawn the cover art on all of his albums), an avid surfer and he holds an honorary position on the board of the Angler Action Foundation, dedicated to the protection of coastal fish and fish habitat. He has written passionately and articulately about his love for the untrammeled environment of his North Florida home and continues to advocate for its preservation.

From his early days playing cover music behind chicken wire at a west side Jacksonville juke joint, to playing sold-out shows at some of the largest venues and music festivals in the world, JJ Grey has always delivered his soul-honest truths. Now, with Olustee, JJ Grey & Mofro will bring their music directly to fans as they hit the road for a massive months-long tour across the country and throughout the world. AllMusic says JJ Grey’s music is “as authentic as the ground under your feet because that’s where it comes from — just before it moves, simply and directly, through the body of the listener, into the human heart.”

TAYLER HOLDER:
TikTok sensation and the platform’s most-followed country music artist, Tayler Holder, is set to ignite the charts once again with his highly anticipated new single, “Dyin’ Flame.” Dropping November 22nd, this heartfelt track takes listeners on a journey through the struggles of a fading relationship, weaving together country storytelling with a pop sensibility. “Dyin’ Flame” resonates with the singer-songwriter’s signature blend of powerful guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and anthemic vocals, delivered with the raw, emotive energy fans have come to love.
Holder shares, “I wrote this song about a relationship that both sides know won’t work but they don’t want to give up on it which is why I give the comparison of ‘throwing matches at a dyin’ flame’ in the same sense of trying to restart something that is clearly burning out, this song represents that to a T. I got to write this song with some amazing writers by the names of Beau Bailey, Graham Barham and Dallas Wilson. Through the process of creating this song, I feel I found my sound with these lyrics and this track and I am extremely excited to share this song with you.”
Coming on the heels of chart-topping singles like “Nothin’ But Neon,” “Someone You Knew,” and “Climb My Way to Heaven”—a powerful duet with Christian music icon Cory Asbury—“Dyin’ Flame” showcases Holder’s unique blend of country and pop. Fans were treated to exclusive performances and signings from Holder at CMAFest 2024 in June, including sets at HOLY! WATER, Country Goes Global, and the Good Molecules Reverb Stage at Bridgestone Arena, along with multiple signings at Nashville Universe, CreatiVets, and the CMA Booth.
Holder who has had an exciting entre into the country music scene with a lot of accolades has been enjoying the light shown of acceptance within the space. He has amassed over 30 million fans across all his social media platforms, on his ride into his country music journey. Holder, fresh in the industry, has transitioned as an influencer seamlessly to a budding country music star. “I am very thankful that I have been welcomed by the Nashville Community and industry alike. I am humbled every day for the continued support, and I want to keep on bringing the best I have for the people that have championed me.”
Speaking of accolades, PEOPLE MAGAZINE boasts, “Holder gives listeners a taste of the sound that just might infiltrate the Nashville music scene very soon. But as impressive as his voice is, it may be his vulnerability that will make him downright irresistible to an audience craving a brand-new male superstar.”
Outside of music, many may know Holder from his viral success on TikTok where he has nearly 20 million followers. Growing up outside of Dallas in a small town called Alvarado, TX. Tayler Holder has always been an entertainer. At the age of 3 Tayler began racing and competing in motocross, a passion that Tayler still holds to this day, but now more of a hobby than a profession. After finishing High School via homeschooling Tayler moved out to California to follow his dreams to be an entertainer, and starting to create content for Instagram and Musical.ly, quickly growing his popularity on the platforms with his viral lip sync videos as well as his daily lifestyle content. Soon after that Tayler branched out into the world of acting with the online series DIRT where Tayler played the main character Luke who deals with love, and addiction as well as tapping into Tayler’s first love in motocross. After joining TikTok, Tayler quickly grew to millions of followers on the platform, continuing to create viral content. Today, Tayler Holder continues to create lifestyle content for his fans on social media, but he is now focusing most of his energy on his music career as things are quickly taking off for this talented singer-songwriter. Stay tuned to Tayler’s socials below for more updates on releases as well as upcoming tour dates.

Laughing Matters: Comedy Night with Bill Douglas

6:00 pm to 7:00 pm

Dothan, AL

Laughing Matters: A Comedy Night with Bill Douglas

Join us for an evening of smart, heartfelt laughs with Bill Douglas, a retired middle school science teacher from New Hampshire turned stand-up comedian on a mission to perform in all 50 states. Bill brings his classroom wit, family tales, and travel misadventures to the stage in a PG-rated show designed for adults and older teens.

Whether he’s riffing on the chaos of teaching, the quirks of parenting, or the oddities of everyday life, Bill’s humor is warm, true-to-life, and deeply relatable. With over 30 years of classroom experience, Bill’s been thoroughly trained by twelve-year-olds in the art of people not laughing at his jokes. Fortunately, grown-ups find him hilarious. His PG-rated show is packed with stories about teaching, parenting, marriage, and the absurdities of everyday life. He’s opened for comedy greats like Steve Bjork, Mitch Stinson, and Paul D’Angelo, and now he’s bringing his warm, witty performance to the library stage.

Perfect for fans of observational humor, educators, parents, and anyone who enjoys a good chuckle with a side of insight. Come ready to laugh, think, and maybe even learn something new.

The Dothan Opera House is proud to present a special screening of Puppet Combo’s Night Shift—a slasher film shot right here in Dothan, Alabama!

Unaware that a serial killer is stalking clerks at 24-hour convenience stores, Debra reluctantly takes the night shift at her minimum-wage gas station job after her co-worker disappears. What begins as routine shelf-stocking and floor-sweeping quickly spirals into a heart-pounding descent into paranoia, dread, and blood-soaked madness as the killer closes in.

Brick Masters LEGO Set Building (Ages 10+ and Over 19)

10:00 am to 12:00 pm

Need to Lego of a little stress? Join us and other brick enthusiasts at Brick Masters!

Register with a group of friends or family members or just yourself.

While this event is free and open to the public, we ask that you keep a few things in mind so that this is an enjoyable experience for our participants:

Everyone who participates needs to be registered in their name so we can plan appropriately and have enough sets available. If you are not registered, you will not be permitted inside the programming room.

This event is only for ages 10 and up, and we’ll be building various sets at this event. The library offers a different Lego Club monthly for patrons who are not old enough for this event.

All building sets will be provided and will remain at the library when completed.

Some of our sets are basic, and some are more detailed. Because of this, we’ve set aside two hours for the event. Don’t feel pressured to stay the entire time.

If your child is under the age of 13, per library policy, the parent or adult caregiver must stay with the child at all times during your library visit.

No experience is required, and there is no pressure for skill; just bring your creativity and willingness to have fun.
