“We are excited to be opening…for our 60th Anniversary…,” said TLP Executive Director Dan Danielowski. “It’s been a long year without anything going on at TLP. We are looking forward to this summer’s events at the playhouse!”
TLP’s May 2021 concerts will be held outside due to COVID-19 restrictions. They will be held in The Barn parking lot. Bring your own lawn chairs or blankets.
Concerts throughout the next weeks are “A Tribute to Buddy Holly Featuring Zachary Stevenson” and the “Oh Boys!” on Saturday, May 22, 2021, at 7:00 p.m. The Buddy Holly Concert is a dynamite, two-act show, featuring such hits as “That’ll Be the Day,” “Peggy Sue,” “Oh Boy,” and “Rave On.” The Oh Boys! features TLP alum Kieran McCabe on the drums. He performed in “Evita,” “Scapino,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Million Dollar Quartet.”
On Saturday, May 29, TLP will feature 52nd Street, a popular band from the Chicago, IL, area, playing the music of Billy Joel. This is a full concert show, featuring an eight-piece band of some of the most talented musicians in the Region. It is packed with hits from start to finish. With Baby Grand at center stage and an energetic performance from the supporting cast, 52nd Street is a show that you won’t want to miss!
The Summer Mainstage Season will delay opening until Thursday, June 17, with “Pippin.” Following will be “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” “Jesus Christ Superstar,” “The Robber Bridegroom,” and “Ain’t Misbehavin’.”’ In September, TLP will bring “The Buddy Holly Story” to the stage. It is not included in the basic subscription price of $119. Subscription holders may add Buddy at the Subscription price of $20.
TLP has moved “A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline” to October and the world premiere of “What a Wonderful World” to perform at Christmas. “Since this is a Christmas show,” said Paul Stancato, TLP Artistic Director, “moving it to the Christmas slot seemed the appropriate thing to do, to give this production the full TLP treatment!” “A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline” is still a part of the Summer Subscription Series.
Subscription tickets to see all six summer productions are available for $119. Add “The Buddy Holly Story” to your subscription for an additional $20.
Individual tickets for all shows, including “What a Wonderful World” are also on sale. Ticket prices are $30 for adults, $25 for Seniors, and $20 for students and children. Subscriptions or individual tickets may be purchased online at www.timberlakeplayhouse.org.
As plans for the summer continue, additional concerts, youth productions, and special events will be announce. They can be seen, as well as details of TLP’s COVID-19 protocols, at www.timberlakeplayhouse.org.
