BEHOLD
Our beloved Christmas event returns in person to Fayetteville.
Tickets are Pay What You Can starting at $10.
Bringing together the energy and music of Sweet Tea’s pre-show, Behold leaves audiences soaring with a heartfelt holiday celebration.
Behold is hosted by Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Fayetteville and performs at 7pm, on December 2-4, & 9-11.
Entering its 10th Anniversary year, Sweet Tea Shakespeare has built its reputation on presenting plays unconventionally, with a live radio show-style concert before the play starts, live music throughout the show, and simple, elemental, interactive staging. The concert has become one of Fayetteville’s best-kept secrets that sends hearts soaring into the holiday season. Based on music from Andrew Peterson’s Behold the Lamb of God, the Oh Hellos, and a variety of other artists, Behold leans heavily on the Gospel and folk traditions with a full band.
The event will offer holiday treats for purchase, including beer, wine, light snacks, and more.
KING & COUNTRY
Richard II & Henry IV, Part One. Raleigh and streaming in January.
Shakespeare’s lyrical wonder, Richard II, follows a king on the cusp of civil war. His usurper’s story continues in Henry IV, Part One, where we meet Prince Hal (later Henry V) and Sir John Falstaff.
Our shows feature pre-show musical entertainment, snacks, audience interaction, and more. Join us for an event. Join us for an epic.
