Celebrating The Arts In Lawrenceburg

The City of Lawrenceburg will sponsor two very special cultural events this fall, beginning with a special concert presented by Tennessee’s pride and joy - The Nashville Symphony - on Saturday evening, Oct. 24th, at 7:30pm. 

Tickets for the event will go on sale next week and will be $25.00 for reserved seats, $20.00 for adult general admission tickets (downstairs), and $15.00 for adult general admission (in the balcony). 

Tickets for students K-12 are $10.00.  Tickets for children under five are $5.00.  Tickets may be purchased at the Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce or at the front window of the City Administration Building during regular business hours.

Anne Morrow, the event coordinator, gives the details of this very special evening with The Nashville Symphony, “We have been working on securing an engagement with The Nashville Symphony for quite some time. 

They do not ordinarily perform out of town since acquiring their beautiful new home in Nashville.  So, we were very excited when they agreed to perform at our Historic Crockett Theatre on October 24th. 

We were also very happy to be able to request a special program for their event, which will include beautiful classical pieces during the first part of the evening, and familiar Broadway selections during the second half of the program after Intermission. 

I think it will be a magical evening those who attend will remember fondly forever.”

“We are also very excited about Ballet Memphis’ return to Lawrenceburg on Friday, November 20th.  They had such a wonderful experience here last year, they were more than happy to work us into their very busy fall schedule.

If you were fortunate enough to attend last year, you were treated to a wonderful program performed beautifully by some very talented young professionals. 

These same wonderful dancers will perform excerpts from some of their favorite ballets again this year, including everyone’s favorite holiday ballet, The Nutcracker Suite.”

“As an additional treat, this year’s performance by Ballet Memphis will be in conjunction with the Friends of Lawrenceburg’s 6th Annual Trees of Christmas Festival of Lights, which is held in the Crockett Arts Center adjacent to the Historic Crockett Theatre.

  Student field trips will be available the afternoon of the 20th, which will include a tour of the Trees of Christmas and a special preview of the evening’s performance by Ballet Memphis.”

Tickets for the performance by Ballet Memphis are $20.00 for reserve seats, $15.00 for adult general admission (downstairs); $10.00 for adult general admission (in the balcony). 

K-12 student tickets are $5.00.  Tickets for children under five years of age are $2.50. 

Tickets may be purchased at the Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce and at the front window of the City Administration Building during regular business hours.
