Steven Wright
“I was born. When I was 23 I started telling jokes. Then I started going on television and doing films. That’s still what I’m doing. The end.”
Driving Miss Daisy
Winner of the 1988 Pulitzer Prize and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Play, Driving Miss Daisy is a warm-hearted, humorous and affecting study of the unlikely relationship between an aging, crotchety white Southern lady, and a proud, soft-spoken black man.
The Capitol Steps
OVER 30 YEARS AGO, the Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. In the years that followed, many of the Steps ignored the conventional wisdom (“Don’t quit your day job!”), and although not all of the current members of the Steps are former Capitol Hill staffers, taken together the performers have worked in a total of eighteen Congressional offices and represent 62 years of collective House and Senate staff experience.
Sinatra Forever
Rick Michel, who has performed and headlined in Las Vegas since 1981, presents “Sinatra Forever,” focusing totally on the music of Frank Sinatra. Michel salutes and interprets the Ol’ Blue Eyes standards. Michel has been called: “The closest thing to Sinatra we have ever heard” by “Variety.” Michel, a master impressionist for more than 40 years, has been touring his “Sinatra Forever” show around the country as well as internationally with performances in Canada, Mexico and Chile.
Ladysmith Black Mambazo
In 2014 Ladysmith Black Mambazo, the South African a cappella group formed by Joseph Shabalala during the 1960’s, was awarded their fourth Grammy Award for the CD Singing For Peace Around The World. Not just a CD title but a statement of the group’s career mission. It was Nelson Mandela who designated Ladysmith Black Mambazo “South Africa’s Cultural Ambassadors to the world.”
Cathie Ryan
The acclaimed Irish singer Cathie Ryan and her award-winning band celebrate a traditional Irish American Christmas with The Winter’s Heart®. Featuring Cathie’s heart-stirring vocals, virtuoso musicianship on fiddle, mandolin, guitar, harmony vocals, and percussion, championship Irish step dancing, and beloved stories, this musical celebration of the holidays is sure to warm the heart.
Dark Side of The Moon
Get ready for an evening of Pink Floyd, with Ohio’s own Dark Side of the Moon. Many groups call themselves cover bands, but few reach the distinction of being a tribute band. That designation means more than just playing songs that another band made famous — it means performing those songs in a way that would make the original band proud.
