The Spotlight is About to Shine on LIMELIGHT!

Join the Orangeburg Part-Time Players for LIMELIGHT, an original music-driven drama filled with ambition, betrayal, hidden truths, and unforgettable performances.

As tensions rise inside a thriving jazz club, alliances shift, secrets are exposed, and one woman must decide what is worth fighting for—and what she must leave behind.

Written and directed by Beth Watkins-Brown, with music by Donald Lee, Jr., LIMELIGHT features additional lyrics by Kai-Lee Kenniz and choreography by Beth Watkins-Brown, Niyla Highsmith, Kayla Glover, and Michelle Hunte, bringing this powerful story to life through captivating music and movement.
