Document has been reformatted to meet World Wide Web specifications.) A house RESOLUTION To congratulate Sumter little Theatre upon the occasion of its eighty-fifth anniversary and to commend sumter little theatre for its many years of dedicated service to the sumter community and the people and the state of south carolina.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to recognize Sumter Little Theatre as it celebrates this important milestone;
and Whereas, it all began on a fall September evening in 1939 in Sumter, South Carolina, among a group of optimistic individuals with a shared idea to build something new, a place where their town's stories could come to life. A modest announcement was placed in the local newspaper. A little theatre was forming where marvelous plays were brought to audiences by local talent at affordable prices;
and Whereas, Sumter Little Theatre connected itself to generation after generation, its magic being threaded into the lives of young actors, directors, playwrights, stagehands and audiences who all wanted to see the small yet mighty theatre survive and thrive for years to come;
and Whereas, eighty-five years later, Sumter Little Theatre is a place where generations of actors have gathered to build legacy and a family, educating and entertaining generations for over eight decades;
and Whereas, ever since opening night in 1939, a multitude of songs have been belted out, a dizzying amount of costume changes have been accomplished, hundreds of sets have been moved on and off the stage to create new worlds, but it is the people, the ever-changing faces, both old and new which give the theatre its life. The new generation of passionate artists will forge their own path just as past generations experimented and found their voice to represent their respective eras;
and Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives greatly appreciate the dedication and commitment of Sumter Little Theatre to serving the people and the State of South Carolina. Now, therefore, Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Sumter Little Theatre upon the occasion of its eighty-fifth anniversary and commend Sumter Little Theatre for its many years of dedicated service to the Sumter community and the people and the State of South Carolina.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Sumter Little Theatre. ----XX---- This web page was last updated on January 16, 2025 at 10:00 AM
