Artists Striving to End Poverty is celebrating its Tenth Annual New York City Christmas: A Concert to Benefit ASTEP, taking place on Monday, December 10 at 7:00 PM at Joe's Pub at The Public in New York City. A special auction through Charitybuzz will feature exclusive experiences from Hamilton, Mean Girls, My Fair Lady & Wicked in addition to The Prom, Come From Away, King Kong, and many more!

It's a beautiful show, gorgeously mounted, with a couple of questionable moves that do not detract from its overall loveliness.

freeFall's 2018/2019 season opens with our most requested musical, THE FANTASTICKS. "Try to Remember" a time when this romantic charmer wasn't enchanting audiences around the world. THE FANTASTICKS is the longest running musical in the world and with good reason: at the heart of its breathtaking poetry and subtle theatrical sophistication is a purity and simplicity that transcends cultural barriers. The result is a timeless fable of love that manages to be nostalgic and universal at the same time.

FreeFall extends their summer smash THE MUSICAL OF MUSICALS (THE MUSICAL)! Through July 22. Audiences and critics have fallen in love with this hilarious lampoon of the Great White Way. Some patrons have even proclaimed that THE MUSICAL OF MUSICALS is the "funniest show they've seen in years."

The San Francisco Conservatory of Music (SFCM) today announces the details of its 2018-19 season, the 101st year of the institution's existence. After celebrating the Conservatory's centennial last season, SFCM looks to the future in its curricular model combining performance, history, and the humanities in thematically linked programming. This season's theme, 'Sound and Image,' brings the fine arts together with classes, concerts, and other events that examine the relationship between music, visual art, and the moving image.

It's a musical theatre lover's dream show!

What happens when you put four musical theatre actors together and have them tell the same classic melodrama (I can't pay the rent!!) as scored by musical theatre heavyweights Jerry Herman, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Stephen Sondheim, Kander & Ebb and Rodgers & Hammerstein? You get the hilarious musical comedy spoof, THE MUSICAL OF MUSICALS THE MUSICAL!!
