Second City

 

The Second City 50th Anniversary Tour

Friday, September 11, 7:30 p.m.

Celebrating 50 years of turning out America's great improv and sketch comedians, The Second City returns for one night. No topic is off limits, no subject too sensitive; get ready for a night of laughter!

 


Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers

Friday, September 18, 7:30 p.m.

Grammy Award winners Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers prove there is harmony in family as they travel from dusty west Texas stages to the White House. Larry, Steve and Rudy have performed together since childhood, when they sang in church and on several local Texas television shows. The oldest brother, Larry, broke new ground for the family with a solo deal in Nashville in 1972, and shortly after invited his brothers, Steve and Rudy, to join him on backup. Within two years Larry had a no. 1 hit with "Sweet Becky Walker," followed by next year with Grammy winning "Broken Lady."

The brothers have produced more than a dozen Top 40 hits, including "One Day Closer," "She Used To Be Somebody’s Baby," "The Lady Takes The Cowboy Every Time" and ACM Single of the Year Award Winner, "All The Gold In California."

 

Join us for a preshow BBQ on the lawn! Order on the ticket form.

RAIN: A Tribute to the Beatles

SOLD OUT
Tuesday, September 29, 7:30 p.m.

RAIN, the acclaimed Beatles concert, returns by popular demand! They look like them and they sound just like them! All the music and vocals are performed totally live! RAIN covers The Beatles from the earliest beginnings through the psychedelic late 60s and their long-haired hippie, hard-rocking rooftop days. RAIN is a multi-media, multi-dimensional experience...a fusion of historical footage and hilarious television commercials from the 1960s lights up video screens and live cameras zoom in for close-ups. Sing along with your family and friends to such favorites as “Let It Be,” “Hey Jude,” “My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Come Together” and “Can’t Buy Me Love,” and relive Beatlemania from Ed Sullivan to Abbey Road!

 

“The next best thing to seeing The Beatles,” raves the Denver Post.

“A thrilling bit of time-warping nostalgia…Boomer Heaven!” raves The Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

 

“Uncanny! RAIN are a quartet of fine musicians in their own right…as The Beatles, they triumph!” cheers the Boston Herald.

“An adoring Valentine to The Beatles,” declares the Washington Post.
