JTC Summer Theatre Festival 2024: “Mrs. Mannerly”

August 10 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$38

Judson Theatre Company presents the 3rd Annual JTC Summer Theatre Festival! For the last two years, JTC’s Summer Theatre Festival has been a smash, with most shows selling out their entire runs. With three shows running July 19th-August 25th, enjoy a six-week journey of professional theatre right here in the Sandhills! Step into the gorgeous and intimate McPherson Theater Black Box at the Bradshaw Performing Arts Center and immerse yourself in the magic of live theatre.

The second show of the JTC Summer Theatre Festival is Jeffrey Hatcher’s charming comedy Mrs. Mannerly. Performances run Friday, August 2nd-Sunday, August 11th. “Mrs. Mannerly is the semi-autobiographical story of playwright Jeffrey Hatcher’s childhood etiquette class in 1960s Steubenville, Ohio. The plot may remind you of stories by humorists David Sedaris or Daniel Pinkwater. Young Jeffrey is a misfit little boy who wants nothing more than to be good at something, and he finds his unlikely niche at an etiquette school where no student has ever achieved a perfect score. Mrs. Mannerly, his instructor, is a refined lady with a dedication to social climbing and Emily Post in spite of her secret past. The two butt heads at first, but eventually form an unusual friendship.” Tickets are $38. For full details and online ticket purchases, CLICK HERE.

The JTC Summer Theatre Festival will conclude with Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black’s intimate musical, Tell Me on a Sunday. Performances run Friday, August 16th-Sunday, August 25th.

Tickets are available as a single; however, the best deals are either the 3-Show Packages or the Group Discount (automatically applied for groups of 10 or more). Private performances are available for groups of up to 60 people. For more information, CLICK HERE.
