For the last two years, JTC’s Summer Theatre Festival has been a smash, with most shows selling out their entire runs. And now we’re proud to announce the 2024 Festival schedule–six continuous weeks of professional theatre right here in the Sandhills!

Schedule of Events:

They’re Playing Our Song:

Book by three-time Tony Award winner Neil Simon
Music by Oscar and Tony Award winner Marvin Hamlisch
Lyrics by Oscar and Grammy Award winner Carol Bayer Sager.

America’s premier funny man and the Tony Award-winning composer of A Chorus Line collaborated on this hit musical; a funny, romantic show about a wisecracking composer finding a new, offbeat lyricist. Professionally, their relationship works beautifully, but personally, romance blossoms, conflict rears its head, and comic sparks fly. The story is based on the real-life relationship of Hamlisch and Sager. They're Playing Our Song opened at Broadway's Imperial Theatre on February 11, 1979, where it ran for 1,082 performances.

Mrs. Mannerly:

Step into the Hilarious World of Mrs. Mannerly!

Starring Linda Purl (The Office, Happy Days, Matlock) and Jordan Ahnquist (Shear Madness)

Join Judson Theatre Company's Summer Theatre Festival for a riotous journey back to 1967 with Jeffrey Hatcher's side-splitting comedy, Mrs. Mannerly! Set in Steubenville, Ohio, this uproarious play follows the ambitious and mischievous young Jeffrey as he enrolls in an etiquette class taught by the formidable Mrs. Mannerly, a teacher with a mysterious past and a zero-tolerance policy for rudeness. With sharp wit and clever humor, Mrs. Mannerly explores the hilarious clash between a rebellious student determined to master the art of manners and a strict instructor who’s seen it all. As Jeffrey discovers Mrs. Mannerly's secrets, he learns that there's more to etiquette than meets the eye.

Packed with laughs, surprises, and heartwarming moments, this charming play is a delightful romp that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. Don't miss your chance to see Mrs. Mannerly - it's a lesson in comedy you won’t want to skip!

Tell Me on a Sunday:

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber
Lyrics by Don Black

Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black's musical Tell Me on a Sunday follows a young English girl who has recently landed in New York. Brimming with optimism, she sets out to seek success, companionship and, of course, love. But as she weaves her way through the maze of the city and her own anxieties, frustrations and heartaches, she begins to wonder whether-in fact-she’s been looking for love in all the wrong places.

The show contains some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most-treasured songs, including “Tell Me on a Sunday" and "Unexpected Song."

This intimate musical was performed on Broadway by Bernadette Peters as part of the evening titled Song & Dance.
