Tickets are available to Tibbits members Benefactor level and above on Wednesday Oct 19 and will be available to the general public on Oct 26. Tickets for this event range from $15-25 including fees ($25 premium, $22 adult, $15 for upper balcony with member and student discounts available). Doors will open and seating for this event will begin 30 minutes prior to showtime.

Featuring the powerful vocal harmonies of Paul Felch, Chuck Colby, Mark Stiles, and Glenn Williams, these same four guys have been touring together for 30 years, and the show is better than ever. Over the years, the group has performed in thousands of venues to millions of people, bringing smiles at every performance.

This delightful holiday show is filled with feel-good Christmas favorites, lots of laughs, and some very sweet and sentimental moments. Highlights include a reggae version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town, a serenade from Elvis, a beautiful crowd participation moment in Silent Night, Christmas originals The Boots and The Beard and Frosty the Bluesman. This show is perfect for audiences of all ages.

Great pop vocal music, quick-witted humor, and overall likability make THREE MEN and a TENOR a unique show experience for audiences that cannot be matched. The group has a national touring schedule and has opened shows for national legends like Jay Leno, Chuck Berry, and The Beach Boys, and had it’s own national PBS-TV special (“Three Men and a Tenor- In Concert”) that was shown across the country from Los Angeles to Nashville.

Admission to the classic film series is FREE; donations are accepted. Concessions including a cash bar will be available for purchase at our Ghost Light Bar. The theatre will open 30 minutes prior to showtime with concessions and seating beginning at that time as well.

Nothing says holidays like the classic Tchaikovsky ballet “The Nutcracker.” The ballet is loosely based on the E.T.A. Hoffmann fantasy story “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King” about a girl who befriends a nutcracker that comes to life on Christmas Eve and wages a battle against the evil Mouse King. This beautiful film presentation of the stage production by Peter Wright features the Australian Ballet. With sugar plums, snowflakes and mice dancing to Tchaikovsky’s beloved score, it’s a magical experience for the whole family!

Tibbits Young Audiences will hold auditions for its spring musical “Peter Pan: A Musical Adventure” on December 12 and 13 at 5pm at Hope Church in Coldwater (200 N Fremont St, Coldwater, MI 49036)

Soar away to Neverland in this fresh musical adaptation of the novel “Peter Pan” with book by Craig Sodaro, music by Eric Rockwell, and lyrics by Joanne Bogart. In the beloved tale, the Darling children love to hear of Peter Pan’s adventures during his visits through the open window of the nursery. Then one night after Nana has taken his shadow and Wendy has sewn it back on, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell whisk the children off to Neverland to be part of the adventures. All your favorite characters are there, including Captain Hook and his pirate crew, Princess Tiger Lily and her tribe, and of course, the Lost Boys and Girls!

Auditions are open to any student in fourth through eighth grades. Students should bring a current, non-returnable photo, their completed audition form, and be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Students will audition in small groups and be asked to introduce themselves, read parts from the script, sing a familiar children's song, and do some simple dance moves.
 
Audition forms and the part of the script the auditionees will be reading are available online at Tibbits.org. Rehearsals will begin January 2, 2023 and will be held Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:30-6:30; not all roles meet all days. The show will be presented March 17-19 at Tibbits Opera House.  
 
Peter Pan: A Musical Adventure will be directed by Julia Littley with musical direction by Jayne Lillis and produced by Tirsha Odisher. This production is generously sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Coldwater. Students involved will learn characterization, blocking, costuming, makeup and all aspects of a stage production.
 
Tibbits Young Audiences offers programs both for and by area youth to develop their interest in the arts. Two shows yearly, a non-musical in the fall and a musical in the spring, provide students an enjoyable introduction to the world of theatre. By putting on a show, they learn teamwork, discipline, theatre skills, self confidence and an appreciation for the arts.
 
Auditions will be held at Hope Church (Formerly Free Methodist Church) at 200 N. Fremont Street in Coldwater, Mich. Students need only attend one time. Audition forms and portions of the script that will be used for auditions are available at Tibbits.org.
 
For more information about auditions, call 517.278.6029 or visit Tibbits.org. Performances will be held at the historic Tibbits Opera House, 14 South Hanchett Street, Coldwater, Mich.
