“Mind blowing in every sense, the singing, the imagination, the acting… a total ‘wow’!”
– Stage Whispers, 2023 –
A limited number of printed program books will be available for $10 each at the concert.
A highlight of 2023 was our Golden Age of Broadway concert with the Symphony Chorus – an irresistible evening of toe-tapping tunes and sheer entertainment that sent us all home with smiles to ‘make the world worthwhile’. We simply had to do it again, so we’re back in 2024 with a celebration of Rodgers and Hammerstein showstoppers.
And we’ve got this beautiful feelin’ that Brett Weymark is planning something wonderful with rousing choruses and fabulous musical moments from R&H musicals that have stood the test of time to become classics – plus some rare treats from the ‘backstage comedy’ Me and Juliet and the 1945 film State Fair. And we know he’ll be spoilt for choice with all the memorable melodies, witty lyrics and touching themes that emerged from this legendary musical theatre partnership.
You’ll be singing along and cheering for encores.
