Glen Templeton at The GEM Theatre on Saturday, Aug. 18, 2018 at 7: 30 p. m. Glen has developed a large fan following since he was handpicked in 2008 by Conway Twitty’s daughters to portray Twitty in a touring musical tribute to their father. “With more than 20,000 hopefuls auditioning for the part, they found a powerful voice capable of conveying many of the same qualities Conway had.” Early in his career, Glen developed a reputation as one of the best s i n g e r- s o n g w r i t e r s playing shotgun bars and honky tonks in Nashville. That talent has propelled him to bigger stages such as The Grand Ole Opry and The Ryman. Now you can hear him in at the GEM in Georgia. Tickets go on sale on Tuesday, April 10 at 4 pm. You can purchase at our Box Office on Tuesday or Thursday from 4-6 pm or online at calhoungemtheatre.org.
