Final showtimes Thu June 25 at 2 PM, Fri June 26 at 7 PM, and Sat June 27 at 2 PM and 7 PM. Presented in partnership with J. Edward Knight.

"The Bikinis" - Lincoln County Community Theater (LCCT) encore performances - Grab your beach towel towel and sunscreen and get ready to head on down to the Lincoln Theater in July to join the reunion concert of "The Bikinis." Directed by John Mulcahy and choreographed by Emily Mirabile, the show stars Kelly Caufield, Victoria Hamilton, Mirabile and Rebecca Rinaldi. Back together after 20 years, that girl group from the 60s everyone loves, is bringing back sun, fun and all the great songs they sang down on the boardwalk at the Jersey Shore… all to raise money for the good folks at Sandy Shores Mobile Home Beach Resort. With a show that promises to get everyone dancing in the aisles, The Bikinis, or “The Jersey Girls,” relive their heyday and beyond, beginning the summer of 1964, the night these four inseparable friends got their name, winning the Belmar Beach Talent Contest, wearing just their bikinis! The boardwalk was smitten with the four teens… Jodi and Annie, two sisters from Paramus New Jersey; Karla, their slightly manipulative first cousin from Philly; and best friend Barbara, from Staten Island. It's a nonstop celebration of song filled with hits like "It's In His Kiss," "Yellow Polka Dot Bikini," "Heat Wave," "Under the Boardwalk," "These Boots Are Made For Walking," 'Incense and Peppermints," "Look What They've Done To My Song, Ma," "When Will I Be Loved," "I'm Every Woman," "I Will Survive," "It's Raining Men," and oh so many more! Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Friday, July 10; Saturday, July 11; Friday, July 17 and Saturday, July 18 with matinees at 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 12 and the 19th.
