Pasty Cobbett: The theatres are actually very different. The Fox is a venue for traveling, broadway style productions. It hosts tours of traveling theatre productions, concerts, comedians, etc.The Alliance Theatre is the largest producing theatre in the SE. It's won a Tony Award for best regional theatre. The Alliance produces new works and classics - from selecting the cast, to sewing the costumes, to building the sets - everything is done by the theatre company. The Alliance also partners with national playwrights and producers to produce new and original works on its stage. Its season typically includes 10-12 productions.
