Capitol Steps was born in 1981 when some Senate staffers wanted to stage a nativity play, but in the whole Congress they couldn’t find three wise men or a virgin. So, they dug into the headlines and created song parodies and skits that convey their special brand of satirical humor. November 9-10 + Saturday – 7:30 p.m. + Sunday – 4 p.m. RING OF FIRE Based on Music by Johnny Cash This toe tapping book musical features 14 incredible performers, including two-time Grammy Award winner Lari White and Tony Award winner Jarrod Emick. Coming from Broadway, this theatrical delight includes 38 hit songs by the legendary “Man in Black.” January 4-5 + Saturday – 7:30 p.m. + Sunday – 4 p.m. TAP – THE SHOW Tap your feet into the beat! This nonstop, rhythmic energy show is wrapped in dazzling costumes and backed by a soaring orchestra score. An extravaganza of award-winning dancers and singers, this show brings you re-creations of Broadway show-stoppers, soft shoe, flamenco, Irish step, and more. February 15-16 + Saturday – 7:30 p.m. + Sunday – 4 p.m. STAYIN’ ALIVE One Night of The Bee Gees! This show pays homage one of the most legendary groups of all time – The Bee Gees, who provided the soundtrack to the blockbuster disco flick, Saturday Night Fever. Three talented singers will rekindle the magic memories of numerous mega-hits like “How Deep is Your Love.” March 15-16 + Saturday – 7:30 p.m. + Sunday – 4 p.m. SWEET CHARITY The winner of five Tony Awards, this tender, poignant and consistently funny show created by Neil Simon follows the love-challenged misadventures of Charity Valentine, a “lady of the evening” who always gives her heart – and her earnings – to the wrong man. The tuneful score by Cy Coleman and Dorothy Fields includes “Hey, Big Spender” and other audience favorites. March 29-30 + Saturday – 7:30 p.m. + Sunday – 4 p.m. 4 GIRLS 4 It’s a “Girls Night Out” with Broadway headliners Christine Andreas (La Cage aux Folles), Andrea McArdle (Annie), Maureen McGovern (Little Women) and Faith Prince (Guys and Dolls).
