Summer Programming From The Fox Tucson Theatre Announced

Summer at the Fox is abuzz with activity. Ticket sales are ongoing for the recently announced line-up of 50+ shows, hiring of staff that it takes to run the theatre, and a thorough maintenance program is under way to make sure the "Crown Jewel of Tucson" is picture perfect on opening day August 19th when the Mavericks take the stage. There is a limited quantity of tickets still available for the popular, innovative country band. Visit https://foxtucson.com/events/ for more information.

Planning for the new "Gala in Three Acts" is also in progress. This year instead of having a single large event as in the past, three separate affairs are planned, celebrating the variety of styles presented at the Fox from Jazz to Country and Rock to Broadway, and nearly everything in between. The first will take place on September 11, 2021 with the legendary jazz/swing band group Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, the second on December 4, 2021 a triple header with Mary Chapin Carpenter, Mark Cohn, Shawn Colvin and the third on January 30, 2022 featuring Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth. All will include a sit-down dinner at an off- property destination prior to the performance at the Fox. A variety of local restaurants will provide three unique courses at each event and creative cocktails from Tucson's top mixologists will be available along with a range of beverages. Ticket packages start at $300. For details and to purchase tickets to the gala contact jonathon@foxtucsontheatre.com
