Victoria Theatre Association Announces 2017-2018 Line-Up

By:

Victoria Theatre Association announced the 2017-2018 Premier Health Broadway Series, Projects Unlimited Star Attractions, the Morris Furniture Company Family Series, and National Geographic Live Series, sponsored by Winsupply and The Win Family of Companies, tonight at a special event for Season Ticket Holders, donors, sponsors and friends of Victoria Theatre Association.

"Our 2017-2018 Season of the Premier Health Broadway Series brings some hot new titles," says Ken Neufeld, VTA President and CEO. "Current Broadway hits AN AMERICAN IN PARIS, BEAUTIFUL - THE Carole King MUSICAL, and SOMETHING ROTTEN! are on the season, along with the spectacular new production of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, a beautiful new revival of THE SOUND OF MUSIC, and Lin-Manuel Miranda's first Tony Award®-winning hit IN THE HEIGHTS."

"Our Morris Furniture Company Family Series includes fun family shows with MR. POPPER'S PENGUINS, JOURNEY TO OZ and many more," continues Neufeld. "The National Geographic Live Series presentations are almost sold out each night. To meet the growing demand, we have added a second presentation on Sunday afternoons, so more of Dayton can enjoy an intimate look at our world through the eyes of National Geographic's explorers, photographers, and filmmakers. Our Projects Unlimited Star Attraction Series includes Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID, MYSTIC INDIA: THE WORLD TOUR, The Illusionists present Adam Trent, A CHRISTMAS STORYand the return of A CHRISTMAS CAROL."

The announcement event was held in the Mead Theatre of the Benjamin & Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center to an audience of more than 650. The evening included surprises appearances from Sarah Bockel from BEAUTIFUL-THE Carole King MUSICAL and Nick Rashad Burroughs from the national tour of SOMETHING ROTTEN! Ms. Bockel performed two songs from the show. She had been understudying the role of Carole King on the national tour and is now starring in the New York Broadway production. Nick Rashad Burroughs shared stories about SOMETHING ROTTEN! and helped sling t-shirts into the crowd. Students from Wright State University's Musical Theatre department, Eli Davis, Lauren Everett and Alejandria Solis also played roles in the event.
