Hey cool cats and kittens, grab your Valentine and rock on down to the Carroll Greene Civic Center, in Quitman for Rock'n'Roll Romance. It's the Quitman Community Theatre's annual Valentine's dinner theater extravaganza.
Choose Friday Feb. 5 or Saturday, Feb 6 to rewind to the 50's and savor the popular teen love songs still tucked away in your memory, plus other oldies. Dinner starts at 6:30 pm prior to each performance, and is catered by none other than the Texas Tea Room.
Scheduled a week before Valentine's Day, it's a fun and romantic way to get that lovin' feeling early. Expect to be dazzled. The QTC talent pool is exceptional. Their performances typically blend some serious bits, along with some hilarious antics.
In case you missed my recent post about the "Best of..." awards, QCT captured the Best Community Theatre award for 2009, as announced in the January edition of County Line Magazine. It's no accident. Bob and Becky Hibbard, along with a loyal band of singers/actors/musicians, have raised the bar for community theater in East Texas.
This fundraising event is produced in cooperation with the Quitman Rotary Club. Tickets are $20 each. You can buy tickets at Bank Texas and Wood County National, both Quitman and Mineola branches. Or, you can call Becky Hibbard at 903-967-2164. Please note, seating is open unless you reserve an entire table for 12.
Becky said you can wear regular clothes or. . . whip together a 50s look or dig out the vintage clothes you simply couldn't part with. Go ahead, guys, wear that varsity jacket and relive those high school glory days for a few hours. (We promise not to notice it "shrank" since the last time you wore it!) And gals, feel free to wear your poodle skirt.
Quick tip: Last year's Valentine's dinner and performance was a sell out, so make your reservations early.
