National Theatre’s 2024-25 Performance Series to kick off in October with stand-up comedian
The Friends of Historic Breckenridge organization, which owns the National Theatre in downtown Breckenridge, has announced the lineup for its 2024-2025 Performance Series.
The season will kick off with comedian Jonnie W., who is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 19. Then, in January, the National Theatre will host its second song swap. This year’s event will feature returning musicians Kyle Fambro and Jared McLane, along with Jess Goodlett and Garrett Bryan. Then, in February, “New York, New York Dueling Pianos” will come to Breckenridge, and the season will wrap up in April with the Brandon Davis Band.
All shows this season will be on Saturdays, with doors opening at 6 p.m. and the shows beginning at 7 p.m.
Ticket prices will vary from show to show, and tickets will go on sale online on Sept. 1. Blackhorse Mercantile & Cafe is returning once again as the Performance Series’ presenting sponsor.
Jonnie W.
The first performer in the series will be Jonnie Wethington — who shortened his performing name to the easier to pronounce Jonnie W. — who will perform on Saturday, Oct. 19.
He is a Christian, family-friendly stand-up comedian. According to the information on his website, Jonnie W. combines music and off-beat comedy with a skewed view of the world. He has performed in 48 states – from comedy clubs to Fortune 500 companies, churches, and leadership conferences. His comedy is played daily on Sirius XM Satellite Radio, and his latest Drybar Comedy special has garnered over 5 million views. Jonnie lives with his wife, Curry, in Nashville.
Tickets for the Jonnie W. performance will cost $25 for adults (18 and older) and $15 for students (17 and under). Online ticket sales will start on Sunday, Sept. 1, and will end at 3 p.m. the day of the show. Click here to purchase tickets online.
