Bristol Riverside Theatre Sets Summer Music Fest Three-Concert Series

Bristol Riverside Theatre announces its Summer Music Fest's three-concert series featuring a kaleidoscope of styles - from the African-American songbook to pop music of the 70's to the golden years of Broadway.

The series kicks off on June 16-26 with Bursting with Song, a celebration of Broadway's African-American composers and performers. The program pays tribute to favorite songs such as This Joint is Jumpin', Accentuate the Positive, Ain't Misbehavin', and many more.

The hits of the 1970s are back by popular demand in Love Will Keep Us Together on July 14-24. BRT will rock to memorable favorites like Time in a Bottle, Your Song, and Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head, just to name a few.

The summer heads out on a high with Broadway Gold on August 11-21. The hottest concert of the season features golden hits from Broadway including Oklahoma!, West Side Story, Babes in Arms, Hello, Dolly!, and others.
