It can make you laugh, cry, or just appreciate the sound of a soulful county voice. An Evening in the Round delivers all the above. Plan to join us at the Sumter Opera House for this intimate night of acoustic music starring Grammy winner Linda Davis and hit song writers Lang Scott and Bill Whyte on April 10th!
