The Orpheum Theatre is truly one of Memphis' most remarkable success stories; a theatre able to overcome a variety of adversities that ranged from bankruptcies to a devastating fire and the threat of demolition. Yet the "South's Finest Theatre" rose above all this and is the Mid-South's premiere performing arts center. In 2008, the Orpheum Theatre will celebrate its 80th anniversary. Orpheum Theatre is keeping up with the tradition of amusing its regulars. Wicked a popular Broadway musical is especially loved by tweens, who can relate to its tale of a young woman struggling to fit in, but audiences of all ages can appreciate the themes about prejudice and friendship, as well as the pop-infused score by Stephen Schwartz. If you're thinking of bringing your pre-tweens, bear in mind that, while there is nothing of a vulgar nature, yet there are adult themes. The Wizard of Oz itself also has some scary scenes. The enthusiasts are keen to make their evenings memorable and are thrilled to get the tickets of Orpheum Theatre shows. Be the first to grab it! |
