BLP presents Chicago! One Weekend Only!

3/1/2013

 
3/1-2  -  Okay -- trying to keep all "links" alive in the info below, because Chicago really IS a "big show" for the Blue Light Players - and only THREE performances! We are seeing it at 2pm Saturday, so my "review" won't have time to reach many. But having seen two of this group's previous "youth" variety shows (with three age-groups), I've been particularly impressed with the "senior" group which is now tackling a full length musical. Check out the Youtube video which is quite polished for being shot so early in the process. I have high expectations for this show - which is one of those special shows EVeryone should see at least once in their lifetime!

CHICAGO, The Musical is coming to a stage near you the first weekend in March!  This production is being brought to the Lansing area by the Blue Light Players.  You won’t want to miss this theatrical masterpiece which has thrilled audiences with it fabulous array of musical and dance acts and its satirical plot line since it first opened on Broadway in 1975.  The revival production in 1996 was the winner of six Tony awards, more than any other revival in the history of Broadway.

The Blue Light Players, a non-profit musical theater company which raises money for the families of fallen Michigan police officers, have assembled an extremely talented and multi-generational cast for their inaugural full-length musical theater production.  The Blue Light Players chose this highly-entertaining musical for its thought-provoking satire which highlights the glamorizing of criminals in modern society.  Criminals become superstars when the news of their crimes becomes sensationalized.

For a sneak preview of the show, we have the following video which was filmed "live" during a rehearsal in our dance room 5 weeks prior to the show (without the benefit of mics or retakes):  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrMxN3AbzHg  We also have created a Facebook event page at: https://www.facebook.com/events/137950043029239/ where you may view publicity photos for the show.

This “must see” show will take place at the Albert A. White Performing Arts Theater in the East Lansing Hannah Center with performances at 7pm on Friday, March 1st and 2pm and 7pm on Saturday, March 2nd.  Tickets are $15.00/each and may be purchased online, at the door, or at our Box Office.  All seating is reserved.  For further information regarding tickets purchases, please visit the Blue Light Players website at: www.bluelightplayers.com  You may also call: 517-490-4567 for additional information.

We hope you will be able to join us as the Blue Light Players take to the stage with CHICAGO, The Musical!!
