Turn It Up and Hit The road.
Set to a soundtrack of legendary, classic country music Honky Tonk Angels is a feel-good, foot-stompin’ show filled with laughter, friendship, and beloved tunes. This lively jukebox musical delivers a boot-stomping celebration of iconic music and camaraderie, following three small-town friends—Angela, Darlene, and Sue Ellen—who set their sights on Nashville in pursuit of country music stardom. As they hit the road, the music fuels laughter, heartache, and a bond that grows stronger with every mile. Packed with toe-tapping tunes, down-home charm, and plenty of twang, Honky Tonk Angels turns the stage into a full-on honky-tonk and reminds audiences that sometimes the best part of the journey is who you share it with.

One of the most enduring stories ever told comes alive on stage in The Wizard of Oz. When a sudden tornado carries young Dorothy Gale far from home to the enchanting land of Oz, she sets out on a journey to find the Wizard who can help her return to Kansas. Along the Yellow Brick Road, Dorothy is joined by three unforgettable companions—a Scarecrow searching for a brain, a Tin Woodsman longing for a heart, and a Cowardly Lion in need of courage. As they travel together, they must outwit the Wicked Witch of the West, who is determined to reclaim the magical slippers now in Dorothy’s possession. Through adventure, friendship, and a little bit of magic, Dorothy discovers that home has been with her all along.
