LampLight Theatre will host a brand-new patriotic tribute this year. “Stars and Stripes” will resonate the message of freedom with music classics, dance, and comedy. This is the 19th Annual Americana show that LampLight has produced. These patriotic extravaganzas have become a favorite for patrons and performers alike.

“The greatest joy in performing in our patriotic show is the unity we share in our freedom, liberty, and faith,” says producer/director Billy Wayne. “Stars and Stripes is a salute to those who have served or are currently serving our country. Their firm stand and sacrifice have provided for our freedoms.”

“Stars and Stripes” will pay tribute to not only America, but to someone that makes Tennessee extra unique, Dolly Parton. The show will feature Dolly favorites such as “Welcome Home,” “Color Me America” and of course, “9 to 5.” 

“We will be honoring the different branches of the military and paying respect to all of our military heroes with their anthems sung proudly. We will also pay tribute to country singer, Toby Keith, whose love for this country was undeniable,” said Billy Wayne.

Incredible solo vocalists, ensembles, and a chorus of over 50 members will lift their voices in celebration of America’s freedom. The public is invited to join Billy Wayne and a multi-talented cast of singers, musicians, comedians, and dancers as they celebrate the nation’s heritage.

Performances of “Stars and Stripes” will be June 28 – July 20, Fridays through Sundays at 7 p.m. with additional matinees on Saturdays at 2 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. Admission is $15 for adults, $10 for students, and FREE for children 5 and under. Doors will open one hour prior to all performances. A special performance will be held at Natural Tunnel on July 21 at 2 p.m.

In appreciation to all veterans, active duty and reserve military, police officers, and first responders there will be FREE admission for them and their families. (ID may be requested)
