‘Guys & Dolls’ Cast Announced Following Impressive Audition Turnout

June 11, 2023

Guys and Dolls at Pull-Tight Players

Director Mark Mason has chosen the performers who will open Pull-Tight Players’ 55th season this August. The classic musical Guys & Dolls will bring song, dance, and romance to Franklin audiences.

“How incredibly lucky we are at Pull-Tight,” said Mason. “The amount of talent we had was overwhelming. Several longtime Pull-Tight members who were present said it was the best vocal talent we’ve ever had at an audition for a musical. We had 50 people audition but were only able to cast 23 roles. Very tough decisions!”

“It is with much gratitude that we thank all who came, as well as our amazing audition crew and production staff. The group we have assembled is amazingly talented and diverse, ranging in age from 20 to 70-plus, with some beloved Pull-Tight regulars and a number of newcomers. We can’t wait to welcome you to magical, mesmerizing 1950s New York City!”

Pull-Tight Announces 53rd Season, Grand Reopening Plans

July 9, 2021

Pull-Tight Players 53rd Season of Shows

After a long and anxious time for the world, Pull-Tight Players announces its Grand Reopening and the shows slated for its 53rd season. Premiering Sept 10 and continuing through Sept. 25 is our greatly anticipated show The Real Inspector Hound.

This hilarious comedy directed by Tom Gregg was one week from opening when the pandemic shut down not only the theatre world, but much of the rest of the world. The set was built, the costumes were hung, lights and sound were programmed, the actors had rehearsed many weeks and were excitedly awaiting the audience. And then on Friday March 13, the theatre went dark and shuttered its doors for the first time in its more than 50-year history.

To welcome our patrons back, we are planning special Grand Reopening festivities for each night or matinee of Hound. Expect trivia challenges, door prizes, and preshow entertainment showcasing songs and scenes from “Pull-Tight Classics.” 

In addition, we are excited to announce our remaining lineup of shows for the 2021-22 season: The Curious Savage (December 3-18, 2021), Crimes of the Heart (February 4-19, 2022), Madame Buttermilk (April 1-16, 2022), and The Elephant Man (May 27-June 11). Read more about these shows on our 2021-2022 Season page.

During this transitional year, we will offering season tickets. All show tickets will be available on an individual basis. We hope to return to season tickets in 2022-23. For specifics, particularly for those with outstanding season tickets from 2019-20, please look for more information on our Box Office page.

Thank you for your patience, and welcome back!
