Plumb Theatre News

By BY PAUL AND MATTIE MALOY

Plumb Theatre is proud to present Sherrill Douglas performing the three voices of Loretta Lynn, Stevie Nicks and Dolly Parton (and a little bit of Patsy Cline).

There will be two full hours of the great females of country music on July 22.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m.

There will be a drawing for “Dinner for Two” at Dobbers at halftime. It can’t get much better than that.

We are celebrating our 20th year of music at Plumb Theatre and Sherrill was one of the first big names to get our theatre on the map to becoming a destination place. Time is moving fast, you need to get your tickets for the Number 1 Gospel Male Vocalist of the year Jason Crabb, who will perform on Sept. 30. Tickets are selling fast and you don’t want to be left out.

Call 918-360-9329 for tickets and more information.

Plumb Theatre, 16505 SH 9 E 74432 in Longtown.

Phone: 918-360-9329 or 918-452-2020.

Family friendly – no drugs or alcohol.
