Installed Art at Germantown Community Theatre Today

Fourteen works are on exhibit now at Germantown Community Theatre. I took the art over this morning, opened the wrappings from around the paintings, found the wires and tools and ladder and hung them on the lobby walls. A short five hours later it was time to add the labels and photograph the installation. Everyone there had nice things to say about the artworks. Sales will benefit the theatre by ten percent of the price. And to help make this benefit successful, I rolled the prices way back for the duration of this show through April 29. The paintings may be purchased through the staff at GCT. The stage is set for the opening of Spitfire Grill, the musical this theatre has prepared.
Germantown Community Theatre is located at 3037 Forest Hill Irene Road, (between Poplar and Poplar Pike [which is what Park Ave is called in G.town]), Germantown, TN 38138. The show dates are April 13-29, 2012. The show begins at 7:30 Thursday, 8 pm Friday-Saturday and 2:30 on Sunday. Tickets are $25. for adults, $15. for Seniors and Students, and $10. for kids 12 and under. You can call the Box Office at 901 937-3023 or order tickets online at www.germantowncommunitytheatre.org



This theatre has a big line up for the 2012-2013 season. They will be presenting Steel Magnolias, Twilight of the Gods, Best Christmas Pageant Ever, Quilters, the Musical, A Murder is Announced, and Ruthless the Musical. And, they have a Membership Special now until April 15th for a $25.00 discount off the regular membership rate. Wow! An Adult 7–ticket Package is now only $80.00!!!
