Coming to the Showboat in 2014
The Taffetas - June 5-15
The Taffetas are a doo-wop group of four sisters who sing all the hits of the 1950s! This musical, in the style of Forever Plaid, includes such hits as “Sh-Boom,” “Mr. Sandman,” “Lollipop,” “Where the Boys Are,” and many more. Come join Kaye, Peggy, Cheryl, and Donna as they make their television debut and sing all of your favorites!
Annie Get Your Gun - June 19-29
Annie Get Your Gun follows the story of Annie Oakley, the sharp-shooter who takes Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show by storm, to the consternation of her love interest and fellow gunman Frank Butler. As Annie learns, “You Can’t Get a Man With a Gun”! This Irving Berlin classic also includes such songs as “There’s No Business Like Show Business” and “Anything You Can Do” and is sure to be a bull’s eye!
The Wizard of Oz - July 3-20
This audience favorite is one the whole family is sure to enjoy! The classic movie of The Wizard of Oz ranked sixth on the American Film Institute’s list of best movies of all time. Kansas farm girl Dorothy Gale dreams of what life might be like “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” and soon finds out when a tornado takes her to “The Merry Old Land of Oz”. Come join Dorothy on her adventures with the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and of course, Toto, as they travel down the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City!
Wonderful Town - July 24-August 2
Two sisters leave their small hometown in Ohio to chase their dreams in New York City. Wonderful Town follows their adventures (and misadventures!) as they find frustration, career opportunities, and romance in the big city of their dreams. The original production of this Leonard Bernstein favorite won five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and is sure to be a wonderful time!
Alice in Wonderland - August 9-17
In this stage adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic, Alice crosses through the looking glass into the world of Wonderland, where she meets such bizarre characters as the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter and March Hare, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts. If you haven’t revisited this story in a while, then perhaps it’s time to come watch Alice’s adventures in Wonderland come alive on the Showboat stage!
