The Broadway Dreams Foundation (BDF) partners with Omaha Performing Arts for the fifth consecutive year to present TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT: Defining EXTRA-Ordinary, a unique Broadway concert event featuring performances by Broadway's brightest and Omaha's rising stars. Directed by acclaimed NYC director Stafford Arima (Carrie, Altar Boyz), TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT is the culmination of a weeklong musical theatre intensive taught by the industry's top directors, choreographers, and industry professionals.

TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT will transport you deep below the City of Dreams into the gritty, fast-paced world of the subway system where the B, D, and F trains are ready to propel you to the utter limits.

The explosive Broadway-style cabaret will showcase work and performances by BDF's Artistic Director Nicholas Rodriguez (Tarzan) and Education Director Craig D'Amico (Fiddler on the Roof), Quentin Earl Darrington (Ragtime), Gregory Haney (Bring It On The Musical), Skye Mattox ("Smash," West Side Story), Craig Meyer (Almost Elton John, Cats), Christiane Noll (Ragtime, Jekyll and Hyde), Nicole Parker ("MadTV," Wicked), alongside talent BDF students from Omaha.

TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT will feature selections from the 2014 Tony Award-nominated "Best Musicals" Aladdin and Beautiful, the 2013 Tony Award-winning "Best Musical" Kinky Boots, as well as Stomp, Crazy for You, and more.
