SPARTANBURG – From the queen of country music to the original candy man himself, the Spartanburg Little Theatre’s 65th anniversary season will celebrate some of American theatre’s most beloved classics and exciting new favorites.

“Hello, Dolly!” will be presented September 10-12 and September 17-19.

One of America’s most beloved musicals is back on the SLT stage after more than 30 years. Hired to find a mate for the incorrigible millionaire Horace Vandergelder, matchmaker Dolly Gallagher Levi finds the perfect match – herself. But first she must stop his impending marriage to someone else. Brimming with beautiful tunes such as “Put on Your Sunday Clothes,” “Before the Parade Passes By” and “It Only Takes a Moment,” this classic of stage and screen is a musical lover’s dream.

The “Perfect Wedding” is set for production November 5-7 and November 12-14.

A groom wakes up after his bachelor party the morning of his wedding and finds he's in bed with a woman he doesn't know. The chaos that ensues reaches nuclear proportions. At once a riotous bedroom farce and touching love story, this is one comedy that may have you rolling "down the aisle."

Sassy, heartfelt and a whole lot of fun, “Always…Patsy Cline” will be presented Jan. 14- 16, 2011, and Jan. 21-23, 2011. The show more than just a tribute to the legendary queen of country music. Inspired by Cline’s letters to her biggest fan, Texas housewife Louise Seger, this hit musical will have you laughin’, cryin’ and maybe even singin’ along to 27 of her greatest hits. Boasting such unforgettable hits as “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Walking After Midnight,” “Always… Patsy Cline” will be an evening of musical memories you’ll never forget.

“Willy Wonka,” Roald Dahl's timeless story of the world-famous candy man and his quest to find an heir, comes to life in this musical adaptation of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," which features the songs from the classic family film, including “Pure Imagination.” “The Candy Man” and “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket.” The show features spectacular flying effects by the Las Vegas company "Flying by Foy" and is set for production March 4-6 and 11-13, 2011.

The classic screwball comedy, “Arsenic and Old Lace,"will be presented May 6-8 and 13-15, 2011. When the elderly Abby and Martha Brewster offer their lonely gentleman callers a glass of homemade elderberry wine, the results are always fatal – and hilarious. This hilarious farce is just as funny today as the day it premiered.
