Let’s twist again, like we did last summer with this BRAND-NEW SHOW and celebrate the teen idols and teen queens of the 1950s and 60s one more time. Travel back to a simpler time and listen to summer tunes that will take you back to picnics in the park and vacations to the beach. The story follows the summer adventures Johnny, Diana, Bill and Susie as they celebrate friendship, first love and days in the sun. This nostalgic teenage love story will take you back in time with the help of colorful characters like the sharp dressed Dooley, the surfer Joe, Paul the lifeguard, the boyfriend stealing Ivy, a homesick frog, some rockin robins and the drifting pelicans. Songs include such hits as “Laughter in the Rain”, “Rockin Robin”, “Pink Shoelaces”, “Yellow Polka Dot Bikini”, "Diana", "“Fun, Fun, Fun”, “Surfin U.S.A.” , "Under the Boardwalk", "Wake Up Little Susie", "Summertime Blue", "Here Comes the Sun" and many more.

Last season R.E.S.P.E.C.T. had audiences on their feet and begging for more so we are bringing it back due to popular demand. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. pays tribute to the woman who deserve our respect for paving the way for powerful, talented and exceptional African-American musical divas including Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Natalie Cole, Patti LaBelle and more. The original cast returns with a new expanded disco celebration, more dancing and a tribute to Diana Ross. Featuring over 30 hits, R.E.S.P.E.C.T. will raise the roof and bring down the house at each performance.

Truvy’s salon is Chinquapin, Louisiana’s go-to place for a beauty fix with a hearty side of gossip. Along with her overeager assistant Annelle, Truvy pampers her small-town clients with hairdos, manicures and all kinds of unsolicited advice. Anybody who’s anybody is a regular: There’s the doting M’Lynn and her soon-to-be-married daughter Shelby, the moody Ouiser and the well-to-do widow Clairee. Through witty banter and wisecracks, this hodgepodge group of women form friendships as strong as steel, which they are forced to lean on when tragedy strikes.
Evening Shows – July 26 & August 2
Matinees Shows – July 27, 28, August 1, 3 & 4
