Florida Studio Theatre presents the original music revue, Friends in Low Places, celebrating the contemporary country musicians who transformed their genre and shot to the top of the charts. Exploring the artists who brought country music into the mainstream, like Garth Brooks, Miranda Lambert, and George Strait, this all-new Cabaret features such songs as “Could I Have This Dance,” “Bluebird,” and “Good Hearted Woman.”

The winner of the 2012 Tony Award for Best Musical, Once, begins performances on August 22 in Northwest Arkansas at TheatreSquared. The play is based on the surprise hit independent film by John Carney, adapted for stage with input from the original stars of the movie, songwriters Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, along with renowned Irish playwright Enda Walsh. TheatreSquared's production of Once is led by Associate Artistic Director Amy Herzberg, who returns to the helm after last season's sold-out production of Fun Home.
