The Marvelous Wonderettes takes you to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet the Wonderettes – Betty Jean, Cindy Lou, Missy and Suzy, four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts and voices to match. We learn about their lives and loves in Act I, when we are treated to the girls performing beautifully arranged renditions of classic '50's songs. In Act II we join the girls at their ten-year reunion where we see how their friendships have changed and endured as they perform high-octane and soulful renditions of classic '60's tunes.
You've never had this much fun at the prom…
a must-take musical trip down memory lane!

Music and Lyrics by Jonathan Larson
The musical RENT, inspired by Puccini's La Boheme, is a joyous, breathtaking and often heartbreaking musical that celebrates a community of young artists in downtown New York looking for love and success and struggling to make their mark on the world. The most honored musical since A Chorus Line in 1976, RENT is only the fifth musical to ever win both the Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Musical. Critics have called RENT “the best thing that has happened to the Broadway musical in a long time!”
RENT captures the heart and spirit of a generation.

One of the most explosive movie musicals in recent memory bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results. This heartfelt story is of a father longing for the son he lost and of a young man aching for the father who walked out on him. To the rockin' rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score (the soundtrack album reached number one on the Billboard charts and has sold over 15 million copies!) and augmented with dynamic new songs for the stage musical, FOOTLOOSE celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind. 4 Tony Nominations.
“Exhilarating! You’ll have a hard time staying in your seat!” – WNBC
“This is a show you want to dance to! The score is the best kind of blast from the past!” – Cincinnati Enquirer
