Matthew Buckner News

Dear Readers, if you’re not familiar with the rock musical “Lizzie” with music by Steven Cheslik-deMeyer and Alan Stevens Hewitt and Lyrics by Steven Cheslik-deMeyer and Tim Maner then I pity you. This kick ass, girl power show has one of the most infectious scores that I’ve come across in years. But I can also offer you some good news, as theater company Just Us Girls & Co. have brought this rocking tale to Seattle and just in time it seems. Now some bad news, it’s only running for two weekends, so I implore you to get your tickets now!

Chad Doreck, labeled 'Ambitious Danny' during his stint on the reality show 'Grease: You're the One that I Want,' will join the cast of Altar Boyz, the acclaimed musical comedy at New World Stages, taking over the role of Matthew beginning September 3.

Ken Davenport and Robyn Goodman, in association with Walt Grossman, Ruth Hendel, Sharon Karmazin, Matt Murphy and Mark Shacket, have announced that Altar Boyz, the acclaimed musical comedy at New World Stages, will play its 1000th performance on Sunday July 22nd

A winning combination of catchy songs, heart-pumping dance, and good wholesome Jesus-loving makes 'Altar Boyz' a non-stop rockin' evening.

The L.A. opening of the Altar Boyz National Tour marked the first time Shadoe Stevens saw the show; his work and family keep him in LA, so he had never seen the show for which he has voiced G.O.D. for the last two years.

Altar Boyz, starring Matthew Buckner (as Matthew), Ryan J Ratliff (Mark), Jesse JP Johnson (Luke), Jay Garcia (Juan) and Nick Blaemire (Abraham) will kick off a two-week engagement at The Wadsworth Theatre in Los Angeles tonight.

'Altar Boyz,' now in its first National Tour, is the hysterical account of five singing heartthrobs from Ohio whose soul-searching performance leads to some surprising discoveries during their New York City debut.

It's funny, it's witty, it's energetic, and it's smart, but one only needs a single word to describe Altar Boyz-heavenly.
