And that's a wrap on the 2026 summer season. ❤️🎭 We are so excited to announce that we have had over 27,000 audience members so far this year!

A huge thank you to everyone who made this summer so special — our incredible actors, directors, designers, musicians, technicians, staff, volunteers, students, families, sponsors, and, of course, our audiences. From the first note of Janis Joplin to the final bow of Dolly, you showed up for live theatre all summer long. We couldn't do it without you.

Happy closing to Karen Hester as Dolly! Thank you for spending your summer at Totem Pole Playhouse. ❤️

We would like to thank the good folks at 103.7 News Talk for welcoming Karen and the Totem Pole Community into the studio to talk about the passing Dolly Parton. You can hear the interview here via Soundcloud

💔 We will always love you, Dolly. With the news of her passing right before our matinee today, we felt it was only right to hold a moment of silence. We are grateful to Karen for leading us and our audience through this moment of great loss with such grace.

Today, the world lost one of its most beloved entertainers. Dolly Parton’s music, humor, generosity, and unmistakable spirit touched generations—and her legacy will live on through the countless lives she inspired.

We feel especially fortunate to have spent the past week celebrating her extraordinary legacy with Karen Hester as Dolly.

Thank you, Dolly, for the songs, the laughter, the kindness, and the reminder to always be a little more ourselves. ❤️
