Town Theatre’s Home for the Holidays Celebrates the Season with Veteran Performers, Talented Youth and Special Guests

Town Theatre is thrilled to present Home for the Holidays, a heartwarming celebration of the season, filled with festive music, dance, and community spirit. Running for only seven performances from December 6-15, this seasonal showcase unites an exceptional cast of Town Theatre veterans, advanced youth theatre students, and cherished friends returning “home” to Columbia’s most historic stage.

Audiences will revel in the holiday magic as some of Town Theatre’s most beloved performers take the stage, including powerhouse vocalists like Lisa Akly (Peter Pan), Lou Boeschen (The Marvelous Wonderettes), Kathy Hartzog (Hello, Dolly!), Heather Hinson Miller (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical), Rebecca Seezen (Anything Goes), Shannon Willis Scruggs (Always… Patsy Cline) and Kayla Welch (Beauty and the Beast). They’ll be joined by a stellar lineup of male vocalists, including Alex Cowsert (Million Dollar Quartet), Jeremy Hansard (Big Fish), Davis Herndon (The Wizard of Oz), Clayton King (The Addams Family), David LaTorre (Something Rotten), and Scott Vaughan (The Music Man). Bill DeWitt (Moon Over Buffalo) serves as our evening’s emcee.

Adding even more excitement to the stage are our talented dancers: Agnes Babb (Nine to Five), Ashley Epperson (The All Night Strut!), Christy Shealy Mills (Mary Poppins), Zanna Mills (Bright Star), Kristy O’Keefe Satterwhite (Mamma Mia) and Kendall Scruggs (Anything Goes).

Town Theatre’s youth theatre students, the Town Tweens and Town Teen Troupe (T3), bring fresh energy and dazzling talent to the holiday festivities. Special guests returning to the Town Theatre stage include Josh Finch (Big Fish, Beauty and the Beast), Nathan Jackson (Elf: The Musical, The Sound of Music), Lee Martin (Hairspray, Hello, Dolly!), and Kerri Roberts (West Side Story, My Fair Lady). This extraordinary cast, blending new and familiar faces, creates a true homecoming that promises an unforgettable mix of nostalgia, joy and holiday cheer.

Home for the Holidays is more than a show; it’s a special tribute to our incredible Town Theatre family and the Columbia community. The production celebrates not only the holiday season but also the deep connections and memories that Town Theatre has fostered over the years.

Audiences can anticipate a vibrant repertoire of holiday classics, enchanting surprises and touching moments conceived by Michael Simmons, who also serves as music director alongside Jane Cato and Amanda Hines Wrona. The show’s choreography is led by Joy Alexander, Ashley Epperson, Christy Shealy Mills, Roxanne Rich, Kristy Satterwhite and Kendall Scruggs. Home for the Holidays boasts set design by Bob Bramhall, lighting by Jeremy Hansard, sound design by Clark Wilson, props by David LaTorre and stage management by Morgan Ruebusch.
