Dear friends,
This season has been a great success with new and exciting shows. The month of February when love is in the air, make a date night and come sit back, relax, and let us entertain you at the theatre. We have the collaborative concert of Brigadoon March 18–19 and a special event that we are so excited about that we have to tell you now so you can mark your calendars. The American College of Dublin with 30 students will be performing A Grand Night for Singing May 3.
An Evening with Vivian Reed: Standards and More
Feb. 8
Two-time Tony nominee (Bubbling Brown Sugar and High Rollers) Reed presents a new show of her favorites. Reed dedicates her show to the classics, but detours into less musical territory—all delivered with her trademark energy.
Love and Other Unnatural Acts
Feb. 13
Please join us Monday, Feb. 6 with a new play by Don Webster. This play is about a couple (Jan and Ed Hubble) in the early stages of their marriage when Ed has just had his head turned by another women. Five vignettes follow the couple through various stages of intimacy, all while growing old together.
The New Shanghai Circus
Feb. 18–19

The Lynn community would like to give a special thank you to Mrs. Elaine Johnson Wold, generous exclusive sponsor of Brigadoon, the theatrical highlight of the Wold Performing Arts Center season. This collaborative concert of the Lynn Philharmonia Orchestra and the Live at Lynn Series, showcase musical of the season brings this old-fashioned time-travel romance to life through song, dance and fanciful Highlands regalia.

All the way from Dublin, Ireland with 30 students from The American College of Dublin will be here to perform a full production of A Grand Night for Singing. A musical with songs from Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein.
