It’s our first show of 2019, an this is going to be another incredible year of musical theatre here in Southern California….We love that there are so many CLASSIC shows this season that a lot of us will get to see for the first time… Lara talks about her experience at Wicked with her children and we also look back at the fantastic performance in Pasadena from the Lythgoe Family Panto's 'Wonderful Winter of OZ.) Then we discuss the amazing season to come at Pantages and Ahmanson! HELLO DOLLY (late January) KINKY BOOTS (February) CATS (late Feb) CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY (March) FIDDLER ON THE ROOF (April) LES MISERABLES (May) THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (June) RENT (July) the 20th anniversary tour Miss Saigon (late July) And then looking ahead to the fall…the national tour of FROZEN will roll into LA! And over in Downtown LA at the Ahmanson Theatre…. CINDERELLA (Feb) Matthew Bourne has transformed the fairy tale that we all know and love into a wartime romance! FALSETTOS (April) This is a Tony-award winner that is a funny and touching look at all the different possibilities of a modern family. INDECENT (June) The true story of a groundbreaking piece of theatre, GOD OF VENGEANCE, and the artists who risked their lives to perform it. THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG (July) Just like the name suggests, this is a play about a play where everything is going wrong in a classic murder mystery: actors forgetting their lines, a leading lady who is unconscious, a corpse that can’t play dead… We wish we had more time to cover more theaters, but if there’s something coming up that you’re looking forward to anywhere in Southern California, please reach out to us! @larascottmedia on FB, IG, and twitter and WillArmstrongPR across all platforms. We can’t wait to hear from you! So Once again! Happy 2019! If you’d like to catch up on any of our previous episodes from 2018…or even 2017….check out WestOfBroadwayPodcast.com.
