Eisemann Center Presents AMAZING GRACE THE MUSICAL for three performances on Thursday, April 19 at 2:00 and 8:00 pm and Friday, April 20, 2018 at 8:00 pm. AMAZING GRACE is a new original musical based on the awe-inspiring true story behind the world's most beloved song. A captivating tale of romance, rebellion and redemption, this radiant production follows one man whose incredible journey ignited a historic wave of change.

One of the most charismatic figures from the Peace and Free-Love era is celebrated in the Broadway musical SOUL DOCTOR, which tells the fascinating story of the father of popular Jewish music, Shlomo Carlebach.   A modern-day troubadour, Carlebach ignited the spirit of millions around the world with his soul-stirring melodies, engrossing storytelling and boundless love.

The Harris Center is committed to bringing new theatrical work to the Sacramento area, like Amazing Grace - the Broadway musical based on the true story behind one of the world's most beloved songs; a story that is not well-known.

The biographical musical Soul Doctor tells the incredible story of real-life 'singing rabbi' Shlomo Carlebach and his unlikely friendship with Nina Simone, the high priestess of soul. Together their music became an important voice of social change.   A smash hit off Broadway, this spirited San Diego production begins Tuesday, April 3 and will run for three weeks only at the Lyceum Theatre in downtown San Diego, the first stop on a major tour which heads to the Saban Theatre in Los Angeles, May 3- 13 and then to the Hirsch Theater in Jerusalem.

The incredible true story behind the beloved song, Amazing Grace The Musical is heading to the Keith Albee Performing Arts Center in Huntington, WV thanks to the Marshall Artist Series on Tuesday, February 20th, 2018. This production features music and lyrics by Christopher Smith and a book by Smith and Arthur Giron.

Internationally recognized four-time Grammy Award-winning singer, actress, and community activist Olivia Newton-John performs live in concert at the Majestic Theatre (224 E. Houston St.) in San Antonio, TX on March 23, 2018 at 8PM. Tickets go on sale this Friday, February 2 at 10AM.

Amazing Grace opened at the Shubert in New Haven, Connecticut over the weekend, with an emotional performance that brought the audience to tears.

There's a lot to like at the World Stage Theater right now. While this production and any subsequent national tour stops is likely to find its most receptive audience in people with an upbringing and faith similar to my own, it's not only for those that can recite every verse of the title song (and many other hymns) without even thinking for a minute, or can identify with the idea of God showing His presence in their lives. The idea of putting yourself on a better path after losing your way is something most everyone, regardless of faith or lack thereof, can understand. Even if the whole idea sounds schmaltzy, at the very least there's reason enough to check out the many talented members of the young cast.

The Broadway musical AMAZING GRACE will take its inspirational message on the road as it launches a 23-week national tour, kicking off with an eight-week run at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, as it inaugurates the new museum's state-of-the-art, 472 seat theatre. The DC run begins tonight, November 17, for a run through January 8, 2018, opening on November 20.
