We begin our season with a celebration of the sensational pop music duo Emilio and Gloria Estefan in ON YOUR FEET! From their humble beginnings in Cuba, Emilio and Gloria Estefan came to America and broke through all barriers to become a crossover sensation at the very top of the pop music world.

ON YOUR FEET! takes you behind the music and inside the real story of this record-making and groundbreaking couple who, in the face of adversity, found a way to end up on their feet. Get ready to get on your feet, and dance to the smash hits Rhythm Is Gonna Get You, 1-2-3, Live For Loving You, Conga, and many more. July 9 – August 23, 2020.
Next up, we take you to the stoops of the Bronx in the 1960s with the hit musical based on the classic movie, A BRONX TALE. Based on Chazz Palminteri’s classic movie, this streetwise musical will take you to the stoops of the Bronx in the 1960s—where a young man is caught between the father he loves and the mob boss he’d love to be. Featuring a doo-wop score, A BRONX TALE is a story about respect, loyalty, love, and above all else: family. September 10 – October 25, 2020.
