Tampa To Do — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 20:19:16 +0000

Winner of three 2010 Tony Awards including the award for BEST MUSICAL REVIVAL, this hilarious new production of LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, starring George Hamilton and Christopher Sieber, is appearing at The Straz Center for the Performing Arts February 21st through February 26th.

What seems to be the ultimate fantasy bachelor life, with intricately scheduled gorgeous flight attendants, turns out to be a dizzingly hilarious ride for one man, who finds out that one woman is all he can handle. Boeing Boeing is a high-style, knee-slapping romp through the age of glamorous, jet-setting air travel appearing at The Straz Center for the Performing Arts February 24th through May 6th.

Direct from Broadway, John Leguizamo’s Ghetto Klown comes to Tampa Bay’s Straz Center on March 8th! Ghetto Klown is the next chapter in John Leguizamo’s popular personal and professional story. It is his fifth one-man play, his third on Broadway, and follows in the uninhibited tradition of his Mambo Mouth, Spic-O-Rama, Freak, and Sexaholix…a Love Story. In Leguizamo’s trademark style, the piece explodes with energy, heating up the stage with vivid accounts of the colorful characters who have populated his life. He takes audiences from his adolescent memories in Queens to the early days of his acting career and on to the sets of major motion pictures and his roles opposite some of Hollywood’s biggest stars.

Pure, unadulterated and empowering-that has been Mary J. Blige’s calling card ever since her 1992 multi-platinum debut album, What’s the 411? And in the ensuing years, the singer/songwriter’s musical strong suit has attracted an intensely loyal fan base-responsible for propelling worldwide sales of more than 50 million albums. Join us at The Straz Center for the Performing Arts on March 19th for an amazing performance by Mary J. Blige.
