Once On This Island “will stay in our hearts”

Friday was a warm sunny evening for the huge audiences who came out early to the Arboretum to set up their picnic baskets, blankets and chairs for KCTC and Dr. Nick Kouns present SummerFest’s Once On This Island.  Our audiences were  delighted with a wonderful night of memorable songs and dance as the sun set and the slipper moon and stars glowed as brightly as  director Margo Buchanan’s enormously talented “Island” cast and crew, and they rewarded the “Island” cast  with a spontaneous and rousing standing ovation at its conclusion!

Once On This Island continues Saturday and Sunday, July 24, 25, and 26 with an 8:45 p.m. curtain. The gates at the Arboretum open at 7 p.m.  General admission at the gates will be available for all “Island” performances for $10 for adults and $5 for kids 12 and under, be sure and bring your own blanket or chair!  For reserved seating (including the chair) or a blanket area, you can use our on-line reservation system, or call us at (859)608-3805.

We are pleased to announce Lexington Mayor Jim Newberry is scheduled to welcome our SummerFest audiences to Once On This Island  at tonight’s Saturday, July 25th performance.
