HITS!

42ND STREETFriday, October 9 – 8pm Saturday, October 10 – 2pm & 8pmThe quintessential backstage musical comedy classic, 42ND STREET is the song and dance fable of Broadway with an American Dream story that includes some of the greatest songs ever written, such as “We’re In The Money,” “Lullaby of Broadway,” “Shuffle Off To Buffalo,” “Dames,” “I Only Have Eyes For You” and of course “42nd Street.” Based on a novel by Bradford Ropes and Busby Berkeley’s 1933 movie, 42ND STREET tells the story of a starry-eyed young dancer named Peggy Sawyer, who leaves her Allentown home and comes to New York to audition for the new Broadway musical Pretty Lady. When the lead breaks her ankle, Peggy takes over and becomes a star. With a book by Michael Stewart and Mark Bramble, music by Harry Warren and lyrics by Al Dubin, this sparkling new production will be directed by co-author Mark Bramble and choreographed by Randy Skinner, the team who staged the 2001 Tony Award-winning “Best Musical Revival.”

RAGTIMEFriday, January 22 – 8pmSaturday, January 23 – 2pm & 8pmAt the dawn of a new century, everything is changing…and anything is possible.

The stories of an upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician unfold – set in turn-of-the-century New York – all three united by their desire and belief in a brighter tomorrow. Their compelling stories are set to theatre’s richest and most glorious Tony Award®-winning score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens. Winning Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Musical Score, this 13 time Tony Award nominated musical is a timeless celebration of life – what it could and should be.

SATURDAY NIGHT FEVERFriday, February 19 – 8pmSaturday, February 20 – 2pm & 8pmSATURDAY NIGHT FEVER: THE MUSICAL, the iconic story of Tony – the kid from Brooklyn USA who wants to dance his way to a better life – is back!
