Enjoy a night of Broadway, Opera and

greatest talents: Daniel Rodriguez, Andy
Cooney and Michael Amante – The New
York Tenors. Rodriguez, known as “The
Singing Policeman” and “America’s Tenor,”
soothed the nation’s grief in the days
following September 11. Cooney, christened
“Irish America’s favorite son” by the New
York Times, has performed internationally,
including two sold-out performances at
Carnegie Hall. And Amante, “The People’s
Tenor,” is a combination of All-American good
looks, romantic Italian charm and an incredible
voice. Individually, the three men are superb,
but together, The New York Tenors provide an
overwhelming, “can’t miss” showcase of some
of the world’s greatest vocalists and repertoire.

The Tony Award winning production of HAIR
is at once both a joyous celebration of youth
and a poignant journey through a tumultuous
1960s America! This exuberant musical about
a group of young Americans searching for
peace and love in a turbulent time has struck
a resonant chord with audiences young
and old. HAIR is an electric celebration on
stage, featuring an extraordinary cast and
unforgettable songs, including “Aquarius,”
“Let the Sun Shine In,” “Good Morning,
Starshine” and “Easy To Be Hard.”
“For mature audiences.
While many find this show
suitable for young adults (13
& older), parental discretion
is advised. There is a dimly lit
20-second scene with nudity
that is non-sexual in nature.”
“The ultimate American
rock musical!”
– New York Times
“HAIR speaks to a whole
new generation!”
– Time Out
Let the brassy big band sounds of In the Mood

greatest musical generations – the 1940s

Mood Singers and Dancers, together with
the String of Pearls Big Band Orchestra, show
you a retro look at a time in history when
music moved the Nation’s spirit. In the Mood
features classic hits by Frank Sinatra, Glen
Miller, the Andrews Sisters, Benny Goodman,
and more; music that ranged from up-tempo
big band rhythms to mellow ballads that
inspire a future filled with hope, promise
and prosperity.
“This band really brings the music.”

“The costumes, the choreography
and the music arrangements are
