GHOST, WAR HORSE & More Featured in Hershey Theatre's 2013-14 Season

By:

Hershey Theatre will welcome four main Broadway shows for the 2013-14 season, and they all have a similar theme - they are popular movie titles. "Hershey Theatre is thrilled to welcome four critically acclaimed shows as the foundation of the upcoming season," said Dennis Norton, Entertainment Programming Manager. "The lineup promises something for everyone -a mixture of new offerings and classic favorites."

The 2013-2014 Broadway Season programming includes: Ghost The Musical, War Horse, Sister Act , Flashdance - The Musical

The Broadway season kicks off October 29-November 3, 2013 with Ghost The Musical. Based on the popular 1990 film, the story follows Sam and Molly, a young couple whose connection takes a shocking turn after Sam's untimely death. Trapped between two worlds, Sam refuses to leave Molly when he learns she is in grave danger. Desperate to communicate with her, he turns to a storefront psychic who helps him protect Molly and avenge his death.

War Horse tells the story of young Albert and his beloved horse, Joey. This heart-warming tale of loyalty and friendship, and winner of five 2011 Tony Awards will play in Hershey from December 10-15, 2013. War Horse is powerfully moving and imaginative drama, filled with stirring music and songs. At its heart are astonishing life-sized puppets created by South Africa's Handspring Puppet Company, that bring to life breathing, galloping, charging horses strong enough for men to ride.

Playing February 25-March 2, 2014, Sister Act tells the story of Deloris Van Cartier, a wannabe diva whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a crime and the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look - a convent. Under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her won. Sister Act is a reason to rejoice, with a tribute to the universal power of friendship.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the story of Flashdance comes to Hershey from April 29-May 4, 2014. Flashdance - The Musical tells the inspiring and unforgettable story of Alex Owens, a Pittsburgh steel mill welder by day and a bar dancer by night with dreams of one day becoming a professional performer. When romance with her steel mill boss threatens to complicate her ambitions, Alex learns the meaning of love and its power to fuel the pursuit of her dream. Flashdance - The Musical will include big hit songs from the movie, including the Academy Award-winning title song "Flashdance - What a Feeling."
Tickets are available at Hershey Theatre Box Office, online at www.HersheyTheatre.com, or by calling 717-534-3405.

The 2013-14 Broadway series is proudly presented by Capital BlueCross.
