Little House on the Prairie Visits Tampa
08th March 2010
The Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center offers some of the city’s great entertainment options and is the primary center for housing touring companies and major musical productions and other events. It is a standard aspect of evenings out for many of the city’s residents and also one of the main entertainment options for the numerous tourists that visit the city each year. Information on this complex, which is now referred to as the David A. Straz, Jr. Center for the Performing Arts , is available at many places around town, on the Internet and from the best resorts and hotels in Tampa.
One of the productions that is soon to be featured on the complex’s stage is Pericles: A New Rock Musical. This is presented by Jobsite Theatre and is scheduled to open April 8th. The show is an interesting, to say the least, adaptation of the Shakespearean play and is set in the contemporary United States. Rock musicals are popular and experience phases of extreme commercial success and popularity while also going through lapses in mainstream appeal. Currently, they are the hit, and Pericles should be entertaining to audiences with or without a familiarity with the Shakespeare play.
Little House on the Prairie, The Musical , which starred Melissa Gilbert from the original television series, finished its run at the Center, on Sunday. This musical has proved to introduce a whole new generation of fans to the amazingly successful book series. It also reminds the older generation of this hit program and for some people the musical is a bit of a nostalgic journey. Gilbert plays Ma in the musical production, which is a sort of full circle experience for her. Godspell continues its run in the Jaeb Theatre. It is scheduled to run through May 16th and there are plenty of options for family night ticket purchases. There will be a post show talk-back in the theatre, which will take place after the May 5th performance.
