Carlsen Center to Present BANDSTAND December 17 Image

The 2019 - 2020 season of the Carlsen Center Presents Series continues with Bandstand on 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, December 17, in Yardley Hall.

After World War II, soldiers came home to a new America and made music that inspired the nation. From three-time Tony Award® winner and Hamilton choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler comes an inspiring new American musical that explodes with infectious music and high-octane, heart-stopping dancing.

It's 1945, and six soldiers return from war to a changed nation. When NBC announces a national competition to find the nation's next great musical superstars, they form a band unlike any the country has ever seen. Along the way, they discover the power of music to face the impossible, find their voice, and finally feel like they have a place to call home.
