From the Lone Tree Arts Center: “One of the common themes [that our audience enjoys]:  American musicals with great scores were at the top of each list. As a result, LTAC will be presenting South Pacific in Concert (a dynamic way to focus on the music and artistry of the singers) and a full production of Big River , a sweeping and familiar musical based on Mark Twain’s Huck Finn. After last year’s Home for the Holidays success, LTAC team members were flooded with requests to bring this Lone Tree original show back. This year, in conjunction with Starkey Theatrix, LTAC will revive the show, with director Paul Dwyer joining the artistic team. While the framework for the show will remain the same and some of the most popular performers will once again be featured, Home for the Holidays 2013 will also include new acts and performers to keep the show fresh. Other theatrical productions will include the Colorado premiere of Handsome Little Devils’ Squirm Burpee: a Vaudevillian Melodrama
