Spring into theatre fun!

Jamie Ulmer • April 15, 2025

Spring is always an exciting time. We get more hours of sunlight, the landscape transforms from brown and gray to vibrant shades of green, and everyone just seems a little bit happier. It’s also an exciting time at Theatre Lawrence!


This week, we officially announced our 2025–2026 regular season—a fantastic mix of beloved classics and fresh contemporary hits. Get ready for plenty of laughs, catchy music, and stories that entertain while also offering something to reflect on. Early bird season tickets and renewals will be available very soon!


But let’s not forget everything happening in our current season. Audiences are loving the fast-paced comedy of Clue—so much so that we’ve already added another performance! And coming up, Escape to Margaritaville will soon begin rehearsals. It’s the perfect way to kick off a fun, laid-back summer. (Spoiler alert: there’s a new machine in the bar—can you guess what one of the specialty drinks will be?)


Speaking of summer, it’s not too early to plan for the kids. Our summer classes are enrolling now, and several are already more than halfway full!


So get outside, soak up that sunshine, and be sure to enjoy everything Theatre Lawrence is bringing to life this spring.


See you at the theatre,

Jamie Ulmer
