Caught the last performance of Evita at the Hickory Community Theatre and was I glad. It was an amazing performance with actor’s singing, dancing, and acting.

The Hickory Theatre began in 1948 with a series of radio dramas and by 1949 the Hickory Little Theatre was created. It grew throughout the 1950’s and its home became the former city hall.

Throughout the years managing artistic directors have impacted the theatre growth as have volunteers, fundraisers, patrons, and the actors as well.

It is truly a community endeavor and well done.
