Brunswick
Little Theatre is incredibly busy as we move into spring. The past two
Sundays we've had three shows rehearsing and a children's workshop in
full swing. We are thankful for the cooperation of so many in our
community that help make that possible, especially our hosts at
Brunswick Community College, South Brunswick High School, Trinity United
Methodist Church and On My Toes Dance Studio that provide us the
rehearsal spaces needed to do so much at one time. Community theater
depends on this sort of support and we are extremely lucky to have such
generous and accommodating partners.
All this rehearsing is great, but what REALLY has us excited is the opening of our first show of the season. I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change
takes to the stage beginning 7:30 Friday, February 21 at the Brunswick
Center at Southport, 1531-1 N. Howe Street behind the Wingate Inn.
Tickets are available at www.brunswicklittletheatre.com
and at the door for just $17 for adults and $12 for students with ID.
You have five chances to catch this hilarious adult musical revue about
the trials and joys of relationships -- three evening performances 2/21,
2/22 and 3/1 at 7:30 pm, and two matinees 2/23 and 3/2 at 3:00 pm. All
seats are general admission and please note that sales at the door are
cash or check only. We can't wait to see you at BLT's debut in the
Brunswick Center. It's a wonderful facility and we look forward to
filling it with happy patrons of the arts!
Having
three shows in production at once is a wonderful thing, but it requires
substantial
financial resources. One way we can keep this ball rolling, and have a bit of fun doing it, is to throw, well, a Masquerade Ball! Brunswick Little Theatre is going to laissez le bon temps roulez this year with a Fat Tuesday fundraiser party at the St. James Community Center on March 4th. Join us from 6-10 Fat Tuesday night for a feast of shrimp and grits and a gourmet pancake bar, entertainment by the Brunswick Big Band, a silent auction and a costume contest to name the King and Queen of Mardi Gras! You just know a costume party with theatre people is going to be a good time, whether you join in by wearing your Mardi Gras finery, come costumed as creatively as you can or just enjoy the spectacle from the comfort of your table. Our $30 ticket includes dinner, beer, wine, soft drinks and all entertainment. Get your tickets at brunswicklittletheatre.com or in person at The Grape & Ale in Oak Island or Isaac Allen Salon in Southport and help support YOUR community theatre while having a really great night out.

All the recent
ice and snow has us longing for spring, and for the return of BLT's very
own rock stars to Franklin Square Park. Rehearsals have already begun
for American Band, Music of the Rock Revolution (1965-1973), the
follow-up to last year's hugely popular My Generation shows. This time
we turn our attention to American rock during the late sixties and early
seventies and bring you the best of the era of Flower Power and
California Dreamin'. Mark your calendars and pack your lawn chairs so
you can join the party in the park May 16-18 and 23-25.
With
all that we have going, how is one supposed to keep up? Brunswick
