As has been the tradition of Camp Theatre Jacksonville for over two decades, our staff is gearing up for some very exciting summer projects
full of the music, dancing, and acting the likes of which our campers, their
families, and friends have come to expect and love! We're very eager to present a few changes to our regular routine that we hope will further invigorate the creativity and energy of our campers.
TWO PERFORMANCES ONLY!
Saturday, June 30, 2012
Theatre Jacksonville takes you back to the homefront during WWII with a celebration of Jacksonville's contribution to the war effort in the 1940's.
Join cabaret artist Sarah Boone (aka TJ Executive Director) and a cast of talented Jacksonville musical performers on a journey back to the days of
swing, big bands and the jitterbug. Stay tuned for more information to follow, but mark your calendars now. It's a benefit for Theatre Jacksonville you won't want to miss!
Thanks to a generous grant from the Harold K Smith Playhouse Endowment at the Community Foundation, audiences will see our stage transformed by recently installed energy efficient LED stage lights and a new lighting control board. Not only are we keeping up with theatrical industry artistic and technological standards, we're reducing our carbon footprint, not to mention taking a load off our electric bill! It's a win-win for everyone.
NAME YOUR OWN SEAT at Theatre Jacksonville
and The Weaver Family Foundation will foot the bill for 20% of the cost!
The Weavers have pledged $4,000 to match the sale of 20 auditorium seats. Because of this generous gift, you'll only have to pay $800 instead of $1,000 to have your name permanently affixed to a seat of your choosing. ACT NOW to get one of the few remaining seats at this great price. How's THAT for a Teal Deal?
Seats can be purchased at all upcoming mainstage performances. You may also reserve your seat during business hours by calling the theatre office at 904.396.4425.
