A Night to Remember!
Ghostlight Productions proudly celebrates the resounding success of our Crooners and Canaries Gala Fundraiser, held on April 18, 2026, at the Vern Burton Gym in Port Angeles. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, sponsors, and supporters, we raised over $40,000 to advance our mission and continue the restoration of the historic Lincoln Theater.
Milestones Achieved
Over 18 Music Stand Sponsorships were received, symbolizing the community’s commitment to supporting local arts and education.
Funds raised will help us complete the Lincoln Support Building, a vital step toward our ultimate goal of reopening the historic Lincoln Theater.
Gratitude and Recognition
We extend heartfelt thanks to the Port Angeles Food Bank for their outstanding catering, providing delicious food and refreshments that made the evening truly special.
Our appreciation also goes out to the many generous donors who contributed to both the silent and live auctions, offering unique items and experiences that energized the crowd and fueled our fundraising success.
A special shout-out to all the volunteers whose dedication, creativity, and hard work made this event possible. Your efforts behind the scenes ensured every detail shined.
Looking Ahead
With this year’s success, Ghostlight Productions is more inspired than ever to continue building momentum toward reopening the Lincoln Theater. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back next year for another unforgettable evening of community, creativity, and celebration.

Under the direction of Anna Pederson and music direction by Mark Lorentzen, audiences can expect a heartfelt, high‑energy journey down the Yellow Brick Road filled with color, nostalgia, and student talent.
Performances run May 1–2 and 8–9 at 7 p.m., with matinees on May 3 and 10 at 2 p.m. in the Sequim High School Auditorium. With affordable pricing for families and students, plus the option to purchase tickets online or at the door, the production invites the entire community to join in the magic.
