On Saturday, December 19 ,2020, Newnan Theatre Company held a Holiday Extravaganza Telethon! The six-hour fundraising event consisted of a variety of acts, including a story contest, holiday readings by local celebrities, song and dance performances, and cameos from some of your favorite characters from NTC past shows. Funds raised will benefit Coweta’s only nonprofit theatre company that produces live theatre with local, volunteer talent.
Any donations that we receive will help support the theatre operations while we remain closed during the Covid-19 pandemic. We are currently working to improve the theatre for our patrons as well as plan a new season that everyone will enjoy.
We reached our goal but are gladly still accepting donations. Thank you to all our patrons and we hope you enjoy the clips from the telethon.
And a special Thank You to all of the people that provided their time and talents to make this telethon a success.
