Up The Ante For The Playhouse

Written By: Patrick Owings | Issue: 2018/06 - June

Step down the red carpet and help support a shining star on the Plateau – the Highlands Playhouse.

On Sunday, July 1, the playhouse will host a fundraiser, StarStruck, at the Highlands Country Club beginning at 5:30 P.M. Tickets are $200 per person or $1,800 for a table of eight, which includes eight complimentary movie tickets at the Playhouse for use at any time.

Along with a multi-course seated dinner and drinks, StarStruck will showcase live theatrical vignettes from the casts of “Guys and Dolls” and “Damn Yankees.” Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in a live auction and bid on unique lifetime experiences. Highlands’ own Al Scudder will lead the fast-paced and exciting auction that is sure to up the ante for a good cause.

All proceeds from the event will go to support the Highlands Playhouse. As a nonprofit and 501(c(3) organization, the playhouse relies on the generous support of the community so they can provide live, professional summer theatre and year-round cinematic entertainment for residents and visitors alike.

Tickets to StarStruck can be purchased by calling (828) 526-2695, by visiting HighlandsPlayhouse. org, or at the Playhouse Box Office, 362 Oak Street.
