West Side Story at the Craterian
West Side Story
West Side Story
This landmark musical updates the story of Romeo and Juliet to the urban jungle of 1950’s New York.
Broadway was never the same after the jolt delivered by this powerhouse show, whose stunning choreography, soaring music, and searing story of racial tension retain all their original impact. Leonard Bernstein’s matchless score features such classic songs as “Something’s Coming,” “Maria” and “Tonight.”

Camelot Theater does “Sound of Music”
Sound of Music at Camelot Theater Mar 13 – April 14
Camelot Theater Does the Classic Sound of Music
My friend Diana Roome sent me this email message:
If you like musicals, Talent’s Camelot Theater production of The Sound of Music (starting next week and running until mid-April) is going to be quite electrifying. I know — I’ve been watching rehearsals! In fact, I’ve had the novel experience of being part of them, as a singing nun — which has given me a renewed respect for what it takes to put on a show. The lead singers and the von Trapp children are outstanding, and the place is oozing with energy and talent. I realize for some it might be a little far to come all the way to Oregon — even to see such a production! — but thought you might be tickled to see the flyer anyway.

Shrek The Musical at the Craterian
Shrek The Musical
Shrek The Musical
This hilarious, high-spirited Broadway hit draws its inspiration from the hugely popular movie, a sardonically witty, yet touching fractured fairy tale featuring a lovable ogre, a wise-cracking donkey, a pint-sized, big-headed villain, and a damsel in distress, who is more than she seems.
Boasting a book and score by award-winning writers Jeanine Tesori and David Lindsay-Abaire, Shrek the Musical is family entertainment at its most sublime!

Nunset Blvd at the Craterian
Dan Goggin’s “Nunset Blvd.”
Dan Goggin’s Nunset Blvd, starring Cindy William.
This final installment in the Nunsense franchise — perhaps the most successful series in theater history — stars Cindy Williams, better known as “Shirley” to fans of the long-running TV sitcom Laverne and Shirley.
In Nunset Boulevard, the Little Sisters of Hoboken are thrilled to be invited to sing at the Hollywood Bowl — until they discover that the venue is actually the Hollywood Bowl-a-Rama Bowling Alley. Hijinks, both comical and musical, of course ensue.
Go here for more information on the nunsensical (sorry couldn’t resist) revue.

1776 June 20 – July 22
Book by Peter Stone, Music and Lyrics by Sherman Edwards, based on a concept by Sherman Edwards
The seminal event in American history blazes to vivid life in this most unconventional of Broadway hits. It’s the summer of 1776, and the nation is ready to declare independence, if only our founding fathers can agree to do it! Follow John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia as they attempt to convince the members of the second Continental Congress to vote for independence by signing the Declaration of Independence. 1776 puts a human face on the pages of history as we see the men behind the national icons: proud, frightened, uncertain, irritable, charming, often petty and ultimately noble figures determined to do the right thing for our fledgling nation.
