The Show Must Go On




New Bern Civic Theatre 

Over the past few months, I have been to quite a few shows. I am a HUGE Broadway fanatic just incase you didn't know. RENT would have to be my favorite. New Bern Civic Theatre did an excellent job with that play too!  I've seen a few plays on actual Broadway and just recently saw RENT at DPAC and it was amazing. What's even more amazing is that New Bern has its own Theatre with amazing local talent.

A couple of months ago, my friend, Stewart, was in a play called DEATHTRAP! Now, usually I am a musical type of woman, but this was an amazing play and cast. Only 5 or 6 Actors in that play and it kept me entertained the entire time. Also cause Stewart died twice in the play so it was good!



This past Friday night, I had the privilege to get tickets to a SOLD OUT completely show to Mary Poppins. Surprise Surprise--I have never seen the actual movie so I definitely was excited for this play. One of the things I have always been fascinated about was kid actors in movies. How do they memorize long scripts that good? Well--these kids in Mary Poppins were a HIT! They had the entire play memorized and were phenomenal.

A lot of times, people think "Oh, its just our local theatre putting on a show"....NO, let me tell you something. These are TALENTED actors. If I didn't know I was in New Bern, I would've thought I was on Broadway. I mean, you trying spelling "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" at least 10 times. I had to copy and paste that word into my blog--thats how hard it is to spell. Not only were the adults spelling that word in the song--so were the kids!!

So--with all this talk, get out of your house and go support our local theatre and see these talented people who live right here in our town. Check out the 2017 schedule at the Civic Theatre:


  • Next to Normal
  • Gem of the Ocean
  • Once on this Island
  • To Kill A Mockingbird
  • Catch Me If You Can
  • Around The World in 80 Days
  • Aida


Not only is there the New Bern Civic Theatre ,  there is another Theatre down the street called RiverTowne Players.
