The boots are back! Kinky Boots will lift your spirits to high-heeled heights! Celebrated with six Tony
Awards®, including Best Musical, a Grammy Award® for Best Musical Theatre Album, and London’s Olivier
Award for Best Musical, this big-hearted musical hit will have you strutting out of the theater saying
“Yeah!”
Kinky Boots captivates and entertains audiences around the world with the dazzling Tony-winning score
by pop legend Cyndi Lauper, hilarious and uplifting book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein,
and original direction and Tony-winning choreography by Jerry Mitchell.
Based on true events, Kinky Boots follows the journey of two people with nothing in common— or so
they think. Charlie Price reluctantly inherits his father’s shoe factory, which is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Trying to live up to his father’s legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of
Lola, a fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. As Charlie and Lola work together to turn the
factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they realized… and discover that you change the world when you change your mind.
The kids are bored.. again..! What to do with YOUR Thing One and Thing 2?!
Here’s an idea: Bring the whole family to the Worlds Number 1 ‘The Cat in the Hat’ show for an experience they’ll never forget. The story has been around for over 50 years and kids still love it… just like you did!
Two bored kids (This was way before iPads). One rainy day (We’ve all had a few of those) And one crazy cat wearing a red-striped hat (Where was the background check for that babysitter?!)
In 1957, Dr Seuss used only 200 words to write his classic tale. More than 50 years later, The Cat in the Hat is a much-loved children’s phenomenon. The play was adapted for the stage in 2009 by the National Theatre of Britain. The Cat in The Hat interrupts this rainy afternoon with his unexpected visit to Sally and her brother’s cozy home. Their outspoken and outraged pet Fish is astounded and concerned, but this cat will not be deterred. He will teach us all to make our own fun with nothing but a little imagination. “It’s fun to have fun, but you have to know how” Along with Thing One and Thing Two, the cat will fill the theatre with mischievous humour and madcap style.
A timeless tale with a twist —this energetic adaptation bursts onto the stage (and maybe into the aisles). Expect laughs, surprises, and just a bit of delightful disorder!
STOMP is explosive, provocative, sophisticated, sexy, utterly unique and appeals to audiences of all ages. The international percussion sensation has garnered an armful of awards and rave reviews, and has appeared on numerous national television shows. The eight-member troupe uses everything but conventional percussion instruments – matchboxes, wooden poles, brooms, garbage cans, Zippo lighters, hubcaps – to fill the stage with magnificent rhythms. The return of the percussive hit also brings some new surprises, with some sections of the show now updated and restructured and the addition of two new full-scale routines, utilizing props like tractor tire inner tubes and paint cans. As USA Today says, “STOMP finds beautiful noises in the strangest places.” STOMP. See what all the noise is about.
Everyone’s favorite Scottish nanny is headed to Bangor in this internationally acclaimed hit musical critics

good, family-friendly comedy that delivers” (The Hollywood Reporter). Based on the beloved film, MRS.
DOUBTFIRE tells the hysterical and heartfelt story of an out-of-work actor who will do anything for his
kids. It’s “the lovable, big-hearted musical comedy we need right now,” raves the Chicago Tribune – one
that proves we’re better together.
