Welcome to Town Hall Arts Center’s 2013-2014 Season!

It was a lot of work,but I think you’ll agree that their choices for this year have somethingfor everyone! I know that you will want to be with us for the Holidaysto experience Annie as only director Bob Wells and Town Hall can doit. Immediately followed by the wonderful comedy, Boeing-Boeing!also directed by Bob Wells. Director Nick Sugar opens the season

with his uniquely creative vision of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. In April, he willalso direct Tony Award winning Best Musical Spring Awakening. Joining Boband Nick this season in his Town Hall director debut will be Matt Peters whowill lead the production of Swing! We end the season with the wonderful family favorite, The Music Man directed by Chris Willard (director of thehugely popular 9 TO 5: The Musical in 2013).

Then, don’t miss all of the special concerts and events! Charlie Carroll bringsin the Littleton Jazz Foundation Festival to kick everything off. The Jerseysreturn once again for a rockin’ and rollin’ time that will have you dancing inthe aisles. For two weekends in October, Backstage Theatre brings Nora andDelia Ephron’s compulsively entertaining Love, Loss and What I Wore. InApril, the 17th Avenue Allstars, one of the best contemporary a cappellagroups in Colorado, brings their exceptional music to Town Hall Arts Center.
