Chicago
Saturday, September 27, 2008
at 8:00 PM
Murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and
treachery – the cornerstones of the sultry and alluring Broadway musical
hit Chicago. Chicago is based on the 1926 play by the same name. In
2002, Chicago took to the big screen, winning six Oscars and leading to
the rebirth of the musical. Chicago is the story of seductive nightclub
dancer Roxie Hart who finds that the road to fame can be a trail of
blood. Throw in a cunning lawyer and a bit of razzle dazzle and Roxie
goes from cold hearted killer to the toast of the town... and all that
jazz!

An Evening with Linda Eder
Saturday, November 15, 2008
at 8:00 PM
Springfield loves Linda Eder! Linda’s career is built on a solid
Broadway base, but reaches far beyond it. Over the years, passionate
fans across the country have packed concert venues, including New
York’s Carnegie Hall. Among her many milestones, Linda has been
profiled by the Bravo Network, had a solo concert run at Broadway’s
Gershwin Theater, and performed the track Gold to which Kristi
Yamaguchi skated during the opening ceremonies at the 2002 Winter
Olympics. Singing with amazing power and clarity, Linda delivers an
intimate evening of glorious songs and proves that she is a vocal
force to be recognized as one of the world’s great solo voices!

To Kill A Mockingbird
Friday, April 24, 2009
at 8:00 PM
Published fifty years ago, To Kill A Mockingbird proves to be as
moving, poignant and resonant today as when it first burst upon the
American literary landscape. This classic tale of justice,
acceptance, growing up and forgiveness lives from generation to
generation as we pass along the story of Atticus, Scout, Tom and Boo
Radley, and discover that the issues of a sleepy Southern town in
the 1930’s – prejudice, racism, and human values – are issues for
all time. The Montana Repertory Theatre brings you this powerful
adaptation of the Harper Lee novel, exploring the heart of the
American character with its warmth, wit, and wisdom.
