Legacy Theatre Announces  2007-2008 Season

 

     Considering the fact that the tickets for The Legacy Theatre's scheduled performances of High School Musical were sold out even before most news media had even written about it and that the schedule had to be extended to accommodate the demand for tickets, it might be a good idea for theatre lovers to be made aware of the upcoming schedule well in advance to insure sufficient time for ticket purchases.

Legacy Announces 2007 - 2008 Season

 

The hilarious comedy about Texas' third smallest town, where the Lion's Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies.  The eclectic band of citizens that make up this town are portrayed by only two performers, making the satire on life in rural America even more delightful as they depict all of the inhabitants of Tuna-men, women, children and animals.  Sept. 21-Oct. 14

 

This beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life as a live 1940's radio broadcast.  With the help of an ensemble that brings a few dozen characters to the stage, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds as he considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve.  Nov. 23-Dec. 16

 

More so than any composer and lyricist who have written for the stage, the songs of Rodgers & Hammerstein have become an integral part of our everyday lives.  This stunning collection of compositions places five performers in a theatrical setting, offering the audience a glorious parade of genuine hits.  Jan. 25-February 17

 

A feisty parolee follows her dreams to a small town in Wisconsin and finds a place for herself working at Hannah's Spitfire Grill. 

"An abundance of warmth, spirit and goodwill! Some of the most engaging and instantly infections melodies heard in an original musical in some time."  USA Today April 18-May 11

 

Arnold Lobel's well-loved characters hop from page to the stage in this new musical that remains true to the spirit of the original stories as it follows two great friends, the cheerful and popular Frog and the rather grumpy Toad through four fun-filled seasons.  A score that bubbles with melody and wit, it's jazzy upbeat sound is a perfect match for the hopping, crawling and flying denizens that inhabit Frog and Toad's world.  June 26-July 13 (Thursdays-Sunday)

 

 

Tickets for the Legacy Theatre 2007-2008 season are on sale now by calling the box office at (404) 895 - 1473 or by visiting the theatre located at 1175 Senoia Road in Tyrone.
