Romeo & Juliet

Sunday, March 7, 7:30 p.m.
A BUCK A KiD!

Shakespeare’s iconic romantic tragedy of innocent young lovers falling victim to family hatred and cruel destiny comes alive on the Gallagher-Bluedorn stage. Swords clash, everlasting love is promised, and a treacherous sleeping potion is swallowed in this sorrowful tale, considered the greatest love story of all time. Evoking the lyricism of Shakespeare’s sonnets, “Romeo and Juliet” embodies the brief joy of passion and ecstasy felt by these two young lovers before their heartrending fate. This stunning work is performed by the award-winning theater ensemble, The Acting Company.


In the Mood

Thursday, March 11, 7:30 p.m.

Much more than a concert, In the Mood presents a retro 1940s musical featuring singers, dancers and the sensational String of Pearls Big Band Orchestra. The music and the arrangements are as authentic as it gets. This was a time that all America was listening and dancing to the same kind of music. In the 1940s, the combination of up-tempo big band instrumentals and intimate, romantic ballads set the mood for a future filled with promise, hope and prosperity. This was the time when music moved the nation's spirit!


Avenue Q

Wednesday, March 31, 7:30 p.m.
ADULT HUMOR, COMIC VULGARITIES AND LANGUAGE. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN. FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.

“Avenue Q” is Broadway's smash-hit 2004 Tony Award® winner for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book. A hilarious show full of heart and hummable tunes, “Avenue Q” is about trying to make it in NYC with big dreams and a tiny bank account. Called "one of the funniest shows you're ever likely to see" by Entertainment Weekly, “Avenue Q” features a cast of people and puppets who tell the story in a smart, risqué and downright entertaining way. The New Yorker calls it "SUBVERSIVE and UPROARIOUS!”
