From The President:

I would like to thank you for coming to our shows and supporting theatre in Barrow County.  We choose our shows each year with the intention of providing you with different types of entertainment during the year.  I think you will find that our Main Stage shows this year will accomplish this goal.
 

In July we will do our first musical.  Li’l Abner will be directed by Elinor Hasty and Candy Stoffel, and it is a fun-filled, foot-stompin’ musical based on the comic strip.  It will be fun for the whole family.  Our Main Stage Season will close with the mystery It Was A Dark and Stormy Night.  Billie Nye-Muller will direct this show that opens on October 24th.  Auditions will be held on August 24th & 25th at the theater.
 

Our Children’s PLAYhouse will present several events this year that children can participate in.  A Cat’s Tale will have two shows on Saturday, July 12th, and this show requires a number of children as well as adults.  Our Christmas show this year will be on December 6th & 7th.  This play will be an original script written by Winder’s own Jimmy Terrell.
 

Two drama camps for children will be made possible this year by a generous grant from the Jackson EMC Round Up program.  The grant will pay for the instructors so that the children can attend camp free of charge. The Winder Cultural Arts Center and WBCT will be presenting these two camps to teach children the fun and benefits of dramatic arts.

If you would like to join the theatre group, please feel free to attend one of our monthly meetings or let one of us know.  We are always looking for people to work back stage, help with concessions, hand out programs, and the list goes on and on.  This is a volunteer group so we count on people like you to help us. 
 

Thanks again for your support through the years.  As we continue to grow, we pledge to do our best to provide first class entertainment for you and your family.  Our Children’s PLAYhouse Division works to provide camp and events suitable for children while our Main Stage Season is geared towards older teens and adults.  Let us know what you think about our shows.  We love to hear from you.
 

See you at the theater.
