Television Stars, Familiar Faces Highlight 2013-2014 Lubbock Broadway Season

 
LUBBOCK, Texas - Sept. 4, 2013 - PRLog -- Celebrity Attractions and Civic Lubbock’s upcoming 2013-14 Broadway Season is brimming with stars and brand-name Broadway. Opening the season is a cast of professionals and competitors from television’s hottest dance shows in BALLROOM WITH A TWIST, followed by 2009 Tony Award® winner for Best Musical revival, HAIR. Sally Struthers closes the season leading a stellar cast in HELLO, DOLLY!

Created and choreographed by Louis van Amstel (Dancing with the Stars), BALLROOM WITH A TWIST boasts a cast from Dancing with the Stars and So You Think You Can Dance performing favorite dances including Samba, Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep and Jive. Two American Idol finalists lend vocals to the production that sizzles with energy that will ignite the stage.

“This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius,” and this is the classic rock musical HAIR. The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical is touring the nation after a successful Broadway revival. Groundbreaking at its time, the musical introduced “Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In” to American Top 40 charts as well as the title song “Hair.” HAIR gives audiences a look back at the 1960s through a lens that may show how themes from that day are still relevant.

Broadway’s classic HELLO, DOLLY! will star Sally Struthers in the title role. Struthers, best known for her role as Gloria in television’s All In the Family and more recently in Gilmore Girls, plays meddling matchmaker Dolly Levi who. After her husband’s passing, Dolly is welcomed back into society at full throttle when she finds a potential match for herself while arranging the love connection for others.

HELLO, DOLLY! played over 3,000 performances on Broadway from its original 1960s run to its three revivals. Jerry Herman’s score won the 1964 Tony Award for best Musical, Best Composer and Lyricist and took home a total of eleven Tony Awards that evening! “Put On Your Sunday Best,” and “Before The Parade Passes By,” are just two of the tunes from this classic musical whose title song is now part of the American Songbook, boasting performances by a variety of artists including Carol Channing, Louis Armstrong, Barbra Streisand and even Harry Connick, Jr.
