The Butler Philharmonic Chorus presents: Broadway Meets Blockbuster
If you enjoyed The Butler Philharmonic’s “Opera Meets Broadway” concert last year, you are going to love this year’s sequel called: “Broadway Meets Blockbuster!” They will be singing classic and modern Broadway hits from the “Sound of Music,” “A Chorus Line,” “Westside Story,” the “Greatest Showman,” “Mama Mia” and many more!
For our younger audience members, how about their favorite Disney songs from “Beauty & the Beast,” “Tangled” and the “Lion King?” And if it is theme music from blockbuster movies you like, they will be singing famous songs from “A Star is Born,” “Beetlejuice,” “Carlito’s Way,” “Tomb Raider” and many more! They’ll close out the concert with a couple of fun, upbeat audience sing-a-long numbers. It’s going to be blast! Join us this spring for a concert the whole family will enjoy!
