Attention Cheeseheads: Fox Cities Performing Arts Center to go Green and Gold!

Hey, Packers fans, the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center has an upcoming show you won’t want to miss! Green and Gold Legends with Dave Robinson will appear in the Kimberly-Clark Theater at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2013.

Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Dave Robinson at the
Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.

The unique live stage performance will examine the former Green Bay Packers outside linebacker’s life, the NFL and his career with the Green Bay Packers. Sports fans also will hear an introduction narrated by sportscaster Wayne Larrivee, play-by-play voice of the Packers Radio Network.

The first half, running between 45-60 minutes, will be hosted and produced by Wisconsin native Royce Boyles who has written three books – “The Lombardi Legacy,” “The Lombardi Impact” and “Lombardi’s Left Side” – with Robinson. The audience will learn about the football player’s life from the time of his birth in Moorestown, N.J. to his Aug. 3 induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Following intermission, the remaining 30 minutes will allow audience members to ask questions.

ABOUT THE SHOWS

The Phantom of the Opera
June 11-22, 2014
Midweek Matinee: June 12, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.
Season Ticket Holder Week: June 11-17, 2014
Following an acclaimed sell-out tour of the United Kingdom, Cameron Mackintosh’s spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s phenomenal musical success, The Phantom of the Opera, will come to the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center as part of a brand new U.S. National Tour. Hailed as, “Stunning, intense and spectacular,” by the Sunday Express, this production features a brilliant new design by Paul Brown, costumes by the much missed Maria Björnson, a new staging by Laurence Connor – director of the recent acclaimed 25th anniversary celebration at the Royal Albert Hall – and new choreography by Scott Ambler. The production is overseen by Matthew Bourne and Cameron Mackintosh.

Sister Act
May 6-11, 2014
Sister Act is Broadway’s feel-amazing musical comedy smash! The New York Post calls it, “ridiculously fun,” and audiences are jumping to their feet in total agreement. Featuring original music by eight-time Oscar® winner Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Little Shop of Horrors), Sister Act tells the story of Deloris Van Cartier, a wannabe diva whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a crime and the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look—a convent. Under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, Sister Act is reason to rejoice! Sister Act is locally sponsored by CR Meyer and SECURA Insurance Companies.
