Best Stage Flint Near Me

Niki Strickland: Intimate setting. Less than 100 seats. The production of The Future is Female was very good. The crew did a great job with the staging and costuming. If that is the high level of production value in all shows, they are not to be missed!

Ethan Dawson: It's a small quaint theater that makes the play feel more realistic. You are so close to the stage that you literally touch it at some points. The small theater atmosphere makes the emotional scenes in any play that much more intense because you can clearly see the pain on the actor's face and it feels almost as though you are part of the story. I saw their showing of Death of a Salesman and the cast was absolutely fantastic. I have seen plenty of plays in a lot of different places and I think this is my favorite theater I've ever been to. I highly recommend seeing something here!

Judi Lieffers: Just saw Death of a Salesman! Best performance in community theatre I have ever seen!!!!!

Robert Vallier: Nicely done. The theater looks wonderful and this production of The Fantasticks was incredible. Had a great time.

Jonathan Fuhrman: Their reimagined world-premier LGBT version of The Fantasticks was the first show I've seen here. I'm pretty spoiled when it comes to theater as I go to NYC several times a year to see shows. This production was on par with professional shows I've seen in New York. I was blown away with the quality of the actors, set design, and how absolutely moving this was. I can't wait to see another show here!

JuliAnne Diesch: An extraordinary production in an intimate setting! While the theatre is small (seating fewer than 100, I believe), the staff maximized every part of the lobby and display cases to "set the stage" for the production. Last night we saw The Fantasticks as it has been rewritten by the playwright; it was phenomenal. The new concept merged with the incredible talent was a powerful and wonderful experience. This production is running through Father's Day 2022 - get there if you can! Or come for one (or all) of the next several productions. The lineup is incredible! Photo includes performers, staff, and a supportive mom!

Sherrema Bower: The New McCree Theatre is one more locale that makes Flint a great place to live. Offering community theatre in the African American tradition, McCree's shows are a must-see. Their plays and musicals feature rich storytelling in drama, music, dance, poetry, spoken word, and narration to depict the sorrows, triumphs, and daily lives of African Americans in various places and historical time periods, from long ago to today. Musicals that highlight the tunes and dramatic lives of Motown, Berry Gordy, and the ascension of groups like The Velvelettes, The Supremes, and artists like James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Tammy Terrell, and many more - both names we recognize and those lost to obscurity - are given new life again as their stories are told onstage with rich musical vocals, lively narration, and costuming appropriate to the times. McCree's gospel plays depict the rich musical history of Mavis Staples, James Cleveland, The Caravans, and more; while other plays and musicals tell the story of the Civil Rights Movement, such as "Detroit, 1968," and "The Saints of St. John Street" in Flint; interracial love like "Memphis;" Black-experience depictions like "Purlie;" and classics like "The Wiz."These shows and more, including film screenings and concerts by local groups and choirs and nationally known names, like The Dramatics, make McCree a vibrant community theatre. McCree also sponsors and hosts afterschool programming in the creative arts and shows specific for introducing the arts to young, creative minds. Finally, McCree's Executive Director, Charles H. Winfrey, is a Flint playwright, having penned such musical plays as "Christmas at the Crossroads," "Give Me That Old Time Religion," "Those Dazzling Divas of Motown," "Voices from Heaven: The Story of the Caravans," "Rock the Boat: The Fleming Williams Story," "The Motown Story," and more, have all graced McCree's stage and some have gone on tour. Together, its featured concerts, shows, films, and dramatic arts programs make The New McCree Theatre a community center for creative and performing arts, well known for weaving tapestries of musical memory.
