RALEIGH, NC, May 23, 2012 (Press-News.org) Kristin Buie, communications manager of North Carolina Theatre (http://www.nctheatre.com), has announced the 2012-13 Broadway Season including three touring hits presented by special arrangement with Broadway Series South and three NC Theatre productions, at the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts. Productions scheduled to appear include:
- Catch Me If You Can (Nov. 6-11, 2012, National Tour): Based on the hit film and incredible true story that inspired it, Catch Me If You Can is the high-flying, splashy new Broadway musical that tells the story of Frank W. Abagnale, Jr., a teenager who runs away from home in search of the glamorous life.
- SHREK The Musical (Nov. 27-Dec. 2, 2012, National Tour): Shrek The Musical brings the hilarious story of everyone's favorite ogre to life on stage that is part romance, part twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun for everyone.
- NERDS, A Musical Comedy (Jan. 18-Feb. 3, 2013, NC Theatre Production): NERDS is a cheeky musical comedy that follows the incredible journey of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates as they blaze a path from "garage inventors" to warring titans of the computer revolution. Before Bill and Steve were household names and billionaires, they were ... NERDS. Raleigh audiences will have the unique opportunity to take part in the making of a musical aiming for a future Broadway run.
- Monty Python's SPAMALOT (Feb. 12-17, 2013, National Tour): Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Musical, the funniest show on earth is back to taunt Raleigh for a second time. The musical comedy sensation, lovingly ripped off from the film classic Monty Python and the Holy Grail, tells the story of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table as they embark on their quest for the Holy Grail.
- The Drowsy Chaperone (May 7-12, 2013, NC Theatre Production): The Drowsy Chaperone boldly addresses a great unspoken desire in all of our hearts: to be entertained. It all begins when a die-hard musical theater fan plays his favorite cast album on his turntable, and the music literally bursts to life in his living room, telling the rambunctious tale of a Broadway starlet trying to find, and keep, her true love.
- Altar Boyz (July 12-21, 2013, NC Theatre Production): Altar Boyz is a foot-stomping, rafter-raising, musical comedy about a fictitious Christian boy-band on the last night of their national "Raise the Praise" tour. Hailed as "high-octane entertainment" (Talkin' Broadway), Altar Boyz tells the holy inspiring story of five small-town boys - Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan and Abraham - trying to save the world one screaming fan at a time.
Season tickets start as low as $170.60 for all six shows. To purchase, call the North Carolina Theatre Box Office at (919) 831-6941 ext. 6944. For more information, please visit http://www.nctheatre.com or http://www.broadwayseriessouth.com.
