Avatar the Last Airbender-In Concert “blew” into the Hershey Theatre on Thursday, August 8th and was met with “thunderous” applause.

TITANIC ON ICE: THE MUSICAL is a cross between a semi-successful “Saturday Night Live (SNL)” skit and a ridiculous hour-long sketch from the old “Carol Burnett Show.” The script, adapted by Rob McLemore, includes all the memorable pot points from the film, plus every silly joke or sight gag that came to mind. The production had the feel of an improve troupe presenting a concept show based on an idea tossed out from the audience. It is plausible to think that during rehearsals the cast and crew collaborated to continue adding jokes and sight gags.
