The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess is set in Charleston's fabled Catfish Row, where the beautiful Bess struggles to break free from her scandalous past, and the only one who can rescue her is the courageous Porgy. Threatened by her formidable former lover, and the seductive enticements of the colorful troublemaker, Porgy and Bess' relationship evolves into a deep romance that triumphs as one of theater's most exhilarating love stories.

Accompanied by a lush 23-piece orchestra, this re-envisioned Broadway production includes such legendary songs as "Summertime," "It Ain't Necessarily So," and "I Got Plenty of Nothing."
