The first show of the 2019 summer season of Lincoln Community Theatre will open this week at the Johnston Center for the Performing Arts on the campus of Lincoln College.

"A Grand Night For Singing" is a musical revue showcasing the music of Richard Rodgers and the lyrics of Oscar Hammerstein II and is directed for LCT by Brandon Davis with vocal direction by Tim Searby.

The production is fast-paced and loaded with beautiful, well-known and not-so-well-known songs from several of the Rodgers and Hammerstein collaborations, filled with comedy and some beautiful, tender moments.

The show opens Thursday at 7:30 p.m. at the Johnston Center and will run Friday and Saturday also at 7:30 p.m. and then at 2 p.m. Sunday.

A powerhouse cast of voices include Aaron Hinton, Julie King, Barry King, Kelly Rosendahl, Randy Dunham, Linda Cole, Brian Bolton, Sheralyn Bolton, Curt Schleich, Lauren Stanfield, Jill Voyles and Emmary Roemer. The show is accompanied by Kay Dobson.

Songs from the performance include selections from "Carousel," "State Fair," "The Sound of Music," and "Oklahoma" among others.
