DeWitt Performing Arts Series
Quick Links
The DeWitt Performing Arts Series, which dates back to 1999, is funded through the Richmond Community College Foundation by funds donated from the family of the late Carrie B. DeWitt. The series was started as a way to showcase the capabilities of this state-of-the-art theatre and to make top-quality performances assessable and affordable to residents and visitors to the sandhills area of North Carolina.
Each season the series features nationally-recognized touring performances representing a diverse range of genres starting in the fall of each year and concluding late in the spring. Season ticket sales begin in late summer. Individual show tickets are available until the night of each performances. Admission and ticketing for all of the DeWitt Series performances are a reserved-seat basis based on this seating arrangement.
