It's the busiest time of the year

Jamie Ulmer • November 19, 2024

So much to do, and so much to be thankful for

We’re about to enter what is probably the busiest time of year. That mad dash between Thanksgiving and the end of the year. Filled with pumpkin spice everything, endless rolls of wrapping paper, and bottles of bubbly (followed by resolutions to never have bottles of bubbly again).


It is also a busy time at Theatre Lawrence. Our massive holiday musical “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” is about to open for a three-week run. We’re currently casting our first regular season show of 2025, “Native Gardens.” We’re also about to audition our concert staging of “Sunday in the Park with George.” That’s on top of our youth and education programs, and regular day-to-day operations.


We are truly thankful and appreciative of our entire community. Without your support in the audience, as volunteers, and financially, Theatre Lawrence would be a shadow of what we are today. So, we give thanks to you, and hope you are able to take a breath (catch a show) and enjoy this the most busiest wonderful time of the year.


See you at the theatre,
Jamie Ulmer

Executive Director
