Light Opera Works Presents RODGERS & HART: A CELEBRATION, Begins Performances 10/2

From their first hit song in 1925 through their final showstopper in 1943, the prolific team of Rodgers & Hart continually redefined the musical theater with their wit, freshness and intelligence in such shows as "Pal Joey," "Babes in Arms," "The Boys from Syracuse," "I Married an Angel," and "By Jupiter."

RODGERS & HART: A CELEBRATION features such song classics as "Isn't it Romantic," "The Lady is a Tramp," "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered," "There's a Small Hotel," "I Could Write a Book" and "I Wish I Were in Love Again."

RODGERS & HART: A CELEBRATION is directed and choreographed by Light Opera Works artistic director Rudy Hogenmiller, with music direction by Linda Slein.

The cast of RODGERS & HART: A CELEBRATION is Amy Brophy, Tiffany Desmond, Bethany Thomas, David Geinosky, Jon Landvick and Rob Riddle.
