One of my favorite musicals, The Phantom of the Opera. How awesome was it to have this tour stopping in Austin. If only they joined the age of the internet and let you take a photo inside the theater either before or after the show. So much free publicity that could be had on social media sites. You will just have to trust me that the show and the sets on stage were great.
At the Bass Concert Hall they still had a few last minute Friday night tickets for Mamma Mia. The musical was great and the music of ABBA is always cool.
If you ever have the opportunity to see a show at the Majestic Theater in Downtown San Antonio, please go. Such a great venue.
Tonight’s fun was found at the Georgetown Palace Theater. 42nd Street is a musical based upon a Broadway cast as they practice and prepare for a new show set to open soon. In walks Peggy Sawyer, from Allentown Pennsylvania. She is new to the business and on her way to becoming a star. The Georgetown Palace Theater is an older theater and a cool place to catch a show like this. Here are a few photos to give you an idea of what the Theater looks like.
Beware Ogre! Yes a very fun loving and entertaining Ogre! Shrek the Musical is the production this year at the Zilker Hillside Theater in Austin. Go and check out the characters if you find yourself in the area through August 13th.
The Summer Musical at the Zilker Hillside Theater this year is Hairspray. As usual, they do an awesome job. In this one, they sing, dance, fall in love, protest, and end up in jail among other things. Check it out if you find yourself in Austin.
