Picture
​Bartlett High School’s Panther Playhouse presents Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play by Joe Landry. This production runs for two nights only: Thursday, October 29th and Friday, October 30th in the NEW Bartlett High School Auditorium!
Spies, murder, love, and other trademarks of Alfred Hitchcock come to life in the style of a 1940s radio broadcast of the master of suspense's earlier films. With The Lodger, Sabotage, and The 39 Steps, Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play is a triple feature, complete with vintage commercials, that recreates a daring train chase, a serial killer's ominous presence, and a devastating explosion through the magic of live sound effects and musical underscoring. 
​
This production stars Shy’Kira Allen, James Barrows, Elizabeth Bennett, Abigail Bledsoe, Ethan Bogard, Steele Bowers, Matthew Brooks, Caydence Davis, Aubree Farrell, Zach Griffiths, Rachel Henry, Emma Less, Audrey Miller, Meg McVay, Taina Pardo, Kayley Perkins, Josh Pettit, Lucas Rayborn, Cole Reed, Holden Rogers, Eddie Shauwecker, Ben Sutton, Amara Trammell, Abby Wright, and Anna Wright.

This will be the first ever production performed in the newly built, state-of-the-art Bartlett High School Auditorium. You do NOT want to miss this suspenseful drama that’ll have you on the edge of your seat the entire night. 

Due to current Covid-19 restrictions, seating for this production will be limited to 25% capacity in order to maintain social distancing.  Patrons attending the live performance must wear a mask at all times in the building.  All performers will be masked and socially distanced throughout the performance. 

Tickets will go on sale, Monday, October 26th.  Adult tickets will be $10 and student tickets will cost $8.  For patrons wanting to enjoy the performance from the comfort of their own home, there will be a live stream available for the price of $15 per household.  

Bartlett High School is located at 5688 Woodlawn St, Bartlett, TN 38134.  If you have any questions, please contact bartlettpantherplayhouse@gmail.com.

This will be the inaugural production in the school's brand new auditorium set to open in just a few weeks.  This will be the largest scenic design ever executed by the Panther Playhouse.  The crew has recently finished all platforms needed for the show and are currently working on pieces for Ms. Motormouth’s Record Shop, Tracy’s bedroom, and much more! Be sure to catch Hairspray at the Panther Playhouse March 26th- April 4th!  Tickets go on sale on March 2nd.

Ben Sutton (Junior), measures wood to cut for set pieces.  “To me, this is one of the most crucial parts of our job,” said Sutton. “If we miscalculate one measurement, there’s always the possibility we have to go back and cut and ensure all over again, so it’s important we try and get it right our first time.”
Drawings for the record shop show the scenic crew what the finished product should look like.
