Talent Abounds In East Texas

Talent Abounds In East Texas

QUITMAN- Every February, the Quitman Community Theatre and Quitman Rotary Club produce a musical revue dinner theatre that is eagerly awaited by the music lovers of the area. The theme for this year’s show is Return To Rock ‘N Roll, a 50’s and 60’s musical songfest, featuring over 20 area performers. Producer Becky Hibbard is often asked how so many talented people end up on the Carroll Green Civic Center stage, and her response is that gifted musicians/singer/actors are everywhere…and when given the opportunity, are eager to share their abilities with appreciative audiences. A shining example is Glenda Schill (shown in photo), who plays keyboard and banjolele, as well as sings during the show. Glenda has a masters degree in piano and organ performance from Baylor.

Performances are Friday and Saturday, February 8,9 @ 6:45pm; and Sunday, February 10 @ 1:15pm. Tickets are available at Wood County National Bank in Quitman and Bank Texas locations in Quitman, Mineola, Winnsboro, and Holly Lake Ranch. The dinner meal is catered by The Texas Tea Room. Ticket price is $28 per person. For more information call Becky @ 903-967-2164.
