Lakewood Theatre Company

    About Us


    Over thirty-five years ago a popular acting troupe know as The Lakewood Theatre Company did their performances in unusual locations, such at their first production of “Our Town”, which was produced along the banks of the Cumberland River. This talented group of actors needed a home. Soon they found the old Becker’s Bakery, located in the heart of the Old Hickory Community and positioned in one of the oldest buildings in Davidson County, had closed its doors. But in 1983, Lakewood Theatre Company renovated the old building, gave it new life and opened those same doors to the world of theatre.

    It tells the story of a gay couple’s loving but turbulent five-year relationship in Manhattan. The twist is that one of the lovers is a born-again Christian, while the other is an atheist. When Luke is in an accident and slips into a coma, atheist Adam must lean on Luke’s family for support. Adam and Luke’s story is told mainly in flashbacks: their different lifestyles inevitably cause them to butt heads, and the play is full of questions about love, life, and faith.
