Reviews of Cumberland County Playhouse (Dance School)

Davina Brewer

This is a great place! Would give 5 stars if they had theater style popcorn instead of microwave popcorn like you make at home.

Alexander Taunton

Awesome place

William Mrosewske

Very nice playhouse

James Ferguson

The website in my opinion is very poorly designed and needs to be improved. It needs to feature a now playing section. The plays are wonderful.

Linda Hickman

A group of seniors from my church came to see Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. We were disappointed that the play was not a Biblical play. Much to liberal for our beliefs. We left at intermission. I did explain to the girl at ticket counter and she was super nice. I understand that she has no control over the performances. I think there’s just not a lot of demand for conservative beliefs anymore.

Kimber Newby

Chris Kirk

The Playhouse gets a ton of shows every year. Most have local actors performing, however some of the plays have traveling actors in the lead roles. Even though they are small, the quality and production value is very respectable.

Monica Beasley

A wonderful place!

timothy long

Had never been and was so amazed at the talent and singing. Will go again for sure. Saw Mary Poppins and really enjoyed it..Everyone should go.

Marie Murphy

Enjoyed the Madagascar Show. Fun for the whole family. Everyone including Staff and Actors were FABULOUS

Quinnie Harper

Have been going to the playhouse for 30 plus years. Disappointed they are not having good classic plays anymore like Fiddler On The Roof, Sound of Music, etc. Holliday Inn was a disappointment. Was it really necessary in one act for the lady to have only a slip on? This certainly degraded the musical. This seems to be the new normal with millennials in management. When Mr. Crabtree was in charge all the performances had class and were above reproach. Hope things improve in the 2019 season. Quinine Harper

Danny Baisley

Beauty and the Beast was Phenomenal!

Luna Bella

Very enjoyable! I've enjoyed several plays, some more than once. Well put together and we'll maintained.

David Gravley

The beauty and the best was awesome. The cast and crew put in a really great show.very entertaining full of laughs and drama.

Chris Eaker

I love the venue and the quality of shows is great. I am giving it 4 stars because the audience did not know how to act at a public performance. It is totally unacceptable to hoot & holler during a live performance at the theater. Screaming at the top of your lungs is not how you show your appreciation for the actors. I noticed in the program that there is a page about how to act during a show, and I hope they will add something about screaming. Also they need to say something about it when the director comes up and speaks beforehand.

Danna Lowery

We love this Playhouse and are never disappointed.

When traveling to middle TN, we love coming to CCP!! Seeing Sister Act today. What a wonderful array of talent under one roof. If you are in the area, get tickets to this one. Praise Him with some excellent comic company!

I came here as a kid, came back 25 years later to see Million Dollar Quartet... And it was WONDERFUL ! I suggest picking out a show, and attend !

donna klaaren

What a lovely venue. We saw Holiday Inn last week. The professionalism of the acting, singing and orchestra exceeded our expectations. You must see this.

Janie Bratcher

The play “Don’t Dress for Dinner was fantastic! However our seats (Sec:CenterRow BB Seat 301and 302) were the worse! Our view off the stage was blocked by a wall. We could only see a small potion of the stage! While the ushers got center row seats! Staff... sit in these seats and see what I am talking about! We moved to empty seats right before the play started... however the people came in that the seats belonged to ...thus we moved to different empty seats. The usher was no help stating “:I will take care of it...she did nothing! Except go and sit in her center seat! The seats were better but still saw a lot of the back of the actors head! Really frustrating after spending thirty dollars to see the play!!!!

Our visit to the playhouse was to see "Annie Get Your Gun", with Kelly Cash as the lead (Annie Oakley), playing May 2 - July 11 2014. Our tickets were for the 2:30 afternoon showing on July 3rd. We purchased tickets online which were fairly reasonable (~$25, with kids under 18 being ~$13!), although since we were vacationing, seating was limited, and we sat in the first and second rows with our party of six. This made viewing the side stages (which were used for several scenes) much more difficult. If you have the option, take seating further to the rear, as that would seem to be a better option than the front rows in this venue. The production proved to be better than I had expected, and the leads (Kelly Cash and Britt Hancock) did a wonderful job. The story (with some minor modifications) was as expected, and the musical numbers, ensembles, and orchestra provided good accompaniment. The only downsides were the playhouse and parking access. The playhouse is showing it's age, and some signs (internal, superficial?) of water damage and dated decor. The parking is typically designed for arrivals, and not departures. Given the exceptionally reasonable pricing, I'm overlooking these shortcomings and rounding up my 4.5 start review to 5. I'd recommend this particular production to anyone, and if other productions are of similar quality, would consider seeing any of their productions money well spent while in Crossville, TN.

Annette Waddell

Fabulous rendition of "Beauty and the Beast"!

Jo Ann Strainer

Ref, White and Tuna was a fantastic show! Jason Ross and Patty Payne did a wonderful performance! Kudos to the staff for their hard work!

It was a very good show. We watched the Marvalous Wonderettes and laughed throughout the show. Tommorrow we are watching The Mousetrap and hope it is as good.

Kathy Harris

Last night we saw Smoke on the Mountain, fantastic!!! We laughed so much and had a great time.

Robert Berman

Broadway-quality entertainment in a small town, for a fraction of the cost.

Anthony Feeney

We really enjoyed both Sister Act and Beauty and the Beast, however we didn't realize that Sister Act would not be the same music, so that was a little disappointing. Didnt have cash for consessions, so no treats for us the first time. Seats are not staggered, so hard for us shorter people to see, but the performances were fabulous. Revamp seating would be our only suggestion. Staff and casts were super friendly and helpful.
