Riverbank Theatre Presents TITANIC THE MUSICAL
Titanic the Musical combines one of the greatest tragedies with exceptional music, impressive scenic design, and exquisite period costuming in a powerfully moving theatrical production.
Grand in scale and featuring an ensemble cast of twenty-two performers, the audience is introduced to the real-life individuals who played an integral part in the fateful voyage. Whether they travelled first class, second class, or steerage, the Titanic passengers stepped on board the massive ship with the hope and desire to accomplish their life's dreams.
Unaware of the fate that awaits them, the third class immigrants dream of a better life in the song "Ladies Maid" featuring the three Kate's (Brittany Everitt Smith, Hilary Dutourgeerling, and Jordan Gagnon). The second class Alice Bean (Christy Kreidler) is constantly on the look out for opportunities to rub elbows with the rich and famous on board and the millionaire Barons of the first class dream of their mastery lasting forever. Songs like "In Every Age" sung by ship builder, Thomas Andrews (Aaron Dennis Smith), reflect on great human accomplishments made over the course of history, Titanic being among them.
Randy Skotarczyk, who plays Captain E.J. Smith, puts it this way, "People are surprised when they hear this version is a musical due to the tragic nature of the incident, but they forget that in order to have tragedy, you must also have joy. The show manages to convey both."
The beautiful music throughout is stirring and monumental, and audiences will soon discover why the show won the Tony for Best Musical, Best Original Score, Best Book, Best Scenic Design, and Best Orchestrations.
Performances are Wednesday - Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3:00 p.m. Tickets are $28.00 for reserved seating and are available online at www.riverbanktheatre.com or by phone at 810-278-1749.
