“Listening to you, I get the music;
Gazing at you, I get the heat.
Following you, I climb the mountain;
I get excitement at your feet.”
Peter
Townshend’s tale of a young boy’s journey from pain to triumph is the
most electrifying evening of rock and roll ever to play in a theatre!
After witnessing the accidental murder of his mother's lover by his
father, Tommy is traumatized into catatonia, and as the boy grows, he
suffers abuse at the hands of his sadistic relatives and neighbors. As
an adolescent, he’s discovered to have an uncanny knack for playing
pinball, and when his mother finally breaks through his catatonia, he
becomes an international pinball superstar.
The classic '60s rock opera by The Who includes the songs
“Acid Queen”, “Pinball Wizard” and “See me, Feel Me.”

“If you
open your mind,
Oh, the thinks you will find
Lining up to get loose...
Oh, the thinks you can think
When you think about Seuss!”
So says the mischievous Cat in the
Hat at the onset of this fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza!
Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty have lovingly brought to life all of
our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant,
Gertrude McFuzz, Lazy Mayzie and all of the Whos of Whoville!
These classic, colorful tales are seamlessly brought together by Jojo, a
young boy and “thinker of strange and wonderful thinks”! As each story
unfolds you will marvel at how relevant and profound Seuss’s subtle
themes are; making this musical one that appeals to all ages. The songs
are a Seussian gumbo of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing
to gospel, and R&B to funk!

“We’ll find a new way of living.
We’ll find a way of forgiving…
Somehow, someday, somewhere.”
Hot moves. Cool
tunes. Homeboys and immigrants fighting for life, love and the pursuit
of happiness. Fueled by theater geniuses Bernstein, Sondheim, Robbins
and Laurents, the world’s greatest love story takes to the streets in
this landmark 1957 ground-breaking musical theater classic.
Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” spills into modern day New York City,
as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring
street gangs, the “American” Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. Their
struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice makes
this show still one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching and relevant
musical dramas of our time.
Songs include
“Tonight”, “America”, “I Feel Pretty” and “Somewhere”.
