Auditions for Godspell - Feb 21, 22
2010 Schedule is Announced
A Message from the Director
(Winter 2010)
Why Community Theater is Important
All shows are subject to availability from the royalty houses that own the
rights and/or ASCAP, who owns rights to the music that we employ in non-musical
presentations. Lakeland does not produce or condone the production of any shows
where royalties and rights are not acknowledged and paid for by the producing
organization prior to its presentation.

L.O.V.E. Awards - Saturday, February 13 only
 Come help us celebrate the best of 2009 on Saturday night, February 13 at
8:00 PM as we recognize our many volunteers and the best performances of the
year with our version of the “Oscars”, our own L.O.V.E. Awards show!
Dress up “formal” like they do in Hollywood and see the best numbers of
the past season on stage for one last time, as we have a party here at “the
busiest community theatre in America” and honor the hundreds of folks who
make it happen every year.
Lakeland Theatre Company will be able admit all nominees for free and
only charge a nominal $8.00 per person for everyone else. What a bargain!
You get to see the best of our 2009 shows (and a preview of 2010!) for less
than the price of one show!
Call now for reservations for a great show for YOUR sweetheart as a
Valentine’s Day present this year. Reservations are recommended for the
show. Call Lakeland today and reserve your place at this annual celebration!
Bye, Bye Birdie - Opens Friday, February 19
 Join
us as we present an American classic as our first “book musical” of 2010 –
Bye, Bye Birdie, a high-energy homage to the rock-star mania of the
late 1950’s and 60’s with great music and lots of fun. The story of young
Kim MacAfee and her selection as the “All-American girl” chosen to kiss
Conrad Birdie (an Elvis-like singing star) “goodbye” as he leaves for
military service was the stuff of a legendary Broadway run and hit movie –
and just recently a Broadway revival.
Directed by Doug Wright, this show will have you laughing, dancing,
singing and remembering a time when life was a little more simple – except
when the whole place went crazy because a rock ’n roll star was coming to
town!
Bye, Bye, Birdie opens on February 19, and plays on Friday and
Saturday nights, February 19, 20, 26, 27, March 5 and 6, and on Sunday
afternoons, February 28 and March 7 (last performance). Make your plans now
to see this great show!!
Wearing O' the Green - March 12, 13 only
Lakeland presents an original play with traditional Irish music, just in
time for St. Patrick’s Day! We’ll also have a traditional Irish Dinner of
corned beef and cabbage before each show, so get your green together and
join us!
George Hamilton IV - Saturday, March 20 only
The International Ambassador of Country Music (and a regular performer at
the Grand Ol’ Opry in Nashville, Tennessee), George Hamilton IV, will be in
concert on Lakeland’s stage. This promises to be a night of great music and
great stories, too, and you don’t want to miss this legendary performer on
stage right here at Lakeland!
Comedy Club Returns - Saturday, March 27
only
Back by popular demand, our Comedy Club returns with dinner and a show by
great local and regional comedy talents. January’s event sold out quickly –
better make your reservations early on this one!
