My wife and I attended the matinee on Thursday July 31st. It was a lovely afternoon. The food selection was very good and service was above par. The theater, lobby and gift shop were nicely decorated in a very tasteful and modern fashion. The performance was WONDERFUL. The three young ladies were a treat to watch. Ms. Loos' rendition of Harper Valley PTA was just a stitch to watch and her voice A+. Ms. McPhee's 9 to 5 did justice to Dolly Parton. Finally there are not words to describe Ms. Nyhan-Zygos turn on Fancy...she is a beautiful young lady and has a voice that should be in a Broadway production. I suggest that you get tickets to this production as soon as possible because it is a hit. I look forward to seeing these talented ladies again on stage. Collapse

i was so enthralled by the work of Ruby Ray tonight.! I've seen her work for years but had no idea who the photographer was. The large format black and white prints really drew me in. I've been telling everyone to go. If the 80's punk scene holds a special place for you it's a don't miss.! I also found the artist herself to be very down to earth and easy to talk to. great show.! thumbs up.! Collapse

Once again the Prescott Regulators and their Shady Ladies have put on an excellent competition - In spite of Saturday afternoon's rainout. The hard work and dedication of their members was clearly evident to this "Old-Timer" veteran of many competitions around the country over the past 15 years. The PRSL hospitality was great as was the commraderie with the other groups ("I never met a competitor, Regulator, or Shady Lady I didn't like!"). I feel the judges (costume & skits) were all very knowledgeable and did an excellent job. I especially liked the simultaneous judging of the men's and women's costume categories - Nice innovation! Randy & Cheryl, please convey my sincere thanks to all your members for their hard work and friendly attitudes that made this weekend a success. We will be back next year! Collapse

I've seen at least 8 ABT productions and this one is at the top of my list! The lead's were of course good, but the supporting cast can make or break the performance, and this one made it great! Marian has a remarkable voice, the mayor's wife and "ladies" gave me some belly laughs, the choreography was very entertaining, the quarter had powerful voices that took me to a different era and the children brought sparkles to my eyes. The set designs great and set changes were seamless- couldn't believe it was intermission already! The costume changes, of which there were a lot, were sugary sweet and the ladies were audacious! Loved the energy on stage! What a great way to drift away to a simpler era. Some of the cast members even come out to greet you. I watched several guest children in awe! It's a great place to have some family fun and enjoy real " NY Broadway" entertainment! Collapse

I went to go see Oliver just last week. I was in Oliver! in the original cast on broadway. These orphans did a AMAZING JOB. Their performance was great. The scene changes were quick and the set was AWESOME. I felt just like i was in 19th century London. I give this production 5 out of 5 STARS. THIS SHOW IS A HIT!!! You have got to go see this.

This is an excellent exhibit. It features a couple dozen or so artists and photojournalists who are either from Mexico, or spent significant portions of their life photographing there. It is all black and white, mostly film photography, though a small portion of it is digital. The bulk of the work is from the 80s and 90s, though some of it dates back to the 1940s, I believe. A small portion of it is also within the last five years. The work touches on various themes such as indigenous culture, poverty, the elderly, globalization, protest, and the industrialization of Mexico. I highly recommend this exhibit Collapse

I am not really sure what the last two people (Jason) are talking about, they must have auditioned for one of the parts and did not get it. We went to see the children's performance of The Wizard of Oz (This is how we found out about ABT,GREAT children's show)! We were so amazed with the venue we decided to bring our family to see "The Music Man". I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed ourselfs, the food was excellent, the costumes were amazing, the actors were AWSOME and the show was foot stomping, hand claping fun. We will go back to see other shows that ABT has to offer for sure. Collapse

This was the best thing I have seen at Broadway Palm. Everything was perfect. The cast was wonderful, especially Zygo as Nancy. The children had so much energy and were so involved with their character. The costumes were beautiful and colorful. The best part was the set which included two levels, two staircases and numerous doorways and tunnels. This show is great and is not to be missed. Collapse
