Grease was the top show on the season ticket holder’s survey, according to GTC president Micky Shearon. “There are classics like Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Wizard of Oz, and Driving Miss Daisy but also fun new shows like Mamma Mia and The Addams Family,” Shearon commented. “There is something for everyone.”

Season tickets for the 2019 productions are available now on the company website at www.granburytheatrecompany.org.

Through August 31, theatre patrons can take advantage of an Early Bird special. A package for admission to all eight shows is $245 – a savings of $35 or the equivalent of one show. With the Christmas show add-on, the Early Bird package is $275, a $40 discount off the regular season ticket price.
