Rudy Ruettiger Brings 'VOICES OF RUDY' to Smith Center Tonight
Rudy Ruettiger will take the stage at The Smith Center tonight, April 25, starring in "Voices of Rudy: The Journey to the Movie." The multi-media production, which tells the inspiring story of how a one man's name became synonymous with perseverance and triumph, will return to the Troesh Studio Theater for one night only. Tickets are now on sale.
Since its 1993 premiere, "Rudy" has become one of the most treasured and iconic films in history, and has been hailed by ESPN as one of the Best 25 Sports Movies Ever Made and included on AFI's list of Most Inspiring Films of All Time. The iconic story of how a college underdog was able to persevere against obstacles to earn a coveted spot on the Notre Dame University football team has made a major impact on everyone from students to professional athletes to U.S. presidents.
Produced and directed by Tony Sacca, "Voices of Rudy: The Journey to the Movie," invites audiences to join Ruettiger in his story, from humble childhood beginnings, to his experience at Notre Dame, to his quest to share his story with the masses. Narrated by Ruettiger, the production also features the talent of renowned comic impressionist Rich Natole, who lends a voice to both the supporters and naysayers he encountered on his journey.
"I am so excited to be a part of such an inspirational project," said Sacca. "Rudy has touched the world with his movie and now he will again touch, inspire, and entertain people with his one-man play."
"Voices of Rudy: The Journey to the Movie" can be seen at the Troesh Studio Theater at The Smith Center on Saturday, April 25 at 7 p.m. Tickets for the one-night-only production are priced from $34 to $39 and are currently available for purchase.
