BIOGRAPHYCalled “effective, funny and imaginatively presented”

by the New York Post, RING OF FIRE: THE LIFE AND MUSIC OF JOHNNY CASH was created by Richard

Maltby, Jr. and conceived by William Meade. The jukebox

musical tribute salutes the late six-time Grammy winner,

who charmed generations of music lovers and ruled music

charts with I Walk the Line, Folsom Prison Blues, Man in

Black, Give My Love to Rose, and Solitary Man.

Primarily celebrated as a Country singer, Cash’s style

also spanned Gospel, Folk, Rock, and Blues. Touching

on the life and times of one of the world’s most legendary

musicians, Ring of Fire features a company of performers in a

presentation of Cash’s storied life and legendary music, from

the cotton fields of Arkansas to the Grand Ole Opry. Tales

of faith, family, redemption, and humor set the stage ablaze

in this musical extravaganza, which features Cash’s biggest

hits, such as A Boy Named Sue, If I Were a Carpenter, I’ve

Been Everywhere, Jackson, Ring of Fire, and Daddy Sang Bass.

The production has garnered praise from critics and

audiences around the country, with the Associated Press

hailing it as “touching and exuberant.” The Star Tribune

said the “staging is homespun, [the show is] confident in

voice and well-executed.” It added, “The cast finds the right

twang and heart of songs about heartache, humor.” n

AN EVENING WITH SMOKEY ROBINSON


This performance will not include an intermission. The taking of photographs or use of recording devices is strictly prohibited.

BIOGRAPHYIn AN EVENING WITH SMOKEY ROBINSON,

the music icon presents the timeless hits that made him a

legend, such as Just to See Her and The Tracks of My Tears.

During the course of his longstanding career in music,

Robinson has created more than 4,000 songs and continues

to thrill sold-out audiences around the world with his high

tenor voice, impeccable timing, and profound sense of

lyric. The Los Angeles Times raved, “[He makes] music with

enough grace and passion to transcend any era.”

Once pronounced by Bob Dylan as America’s “greatest

living poet,” Robinson has amassed a long list of honors

during his career. A recipient of the Grammy Living Legend

Award, NARAS Lifetime Achievement Award, Kennedy

Center Honors, and the National Medal of Arts Award,

Robinson has also been inducted into the Rock and Roll

Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

A native of Detroit, Michigan, a teenage Robinson

founded The Miracles, which was the first vocal group

signed by Berry Gordy for Motown. Robinson’s Shop Around

became Motown’s first No. One hit on the R&B singles

chart. The Miracles also climbed music charts with You’ve

Really Got a Hold on Me, Ooo Baby Baby, Going to a Go-Go,

More Love, Tears of a Clown, and I Second That Emotion.

Robinson also wrote and produced hits for other

Motown greats, including The Temptations, Mary Wells,

Brenda Holloway, and Marvin Gaye. Iconic songs that

Robinson penned include The Way You Do the Things You

Do, My Girl, Get Ready, You Ain’t That Peculiar, and My

Guy. During his solo career, the crooner garnered more

success with Just to See Her, Quiet Storm, Cruisin’, and Being

With You. n

ALTON BROWN LIVE – EDIBLE INEVITABLE TOUR

Saturday, October 19, 2013, 8:00 PM

There will be one 20-minute intermission.

The taking of photographs or use of recording devices is strictly prohibited.

BIOGRAPHYIn 1999, Alton Brown reinvented the food show

with his award-winning Food Network program Good Eats,

which the Los Angeles Times describes as “a unique blend

of cooking meets entertainment meets mad-cap science.”

Good Eats was recognized as a Peabody Award winner, a

distinguished prize presented for excellence in broadcast

news, education, and entertainment.

A regular on Food Network Star, Iron Chef America,

and Next Iron Chef, the gourmand now takes his winning

recipe for entertainment on the road in ALTON BROWN LIVE – EDIBLE INEVITABLE TOUR. Audiences will

be amazed, amused, edified, and perhaps a bit terrified as

the television personality whips up his quirky humor and

culinary-science antics on stage. The show is a unique

blend of stand-up comedy, food experimentation, talk-show

antics, multimedia lecture, and – for the first time – live

music. Audience interaction is anticipated throughout the

evening, and those recruited to be culinary assistants for

onstage food experimentation are warned that things could

get a little messy.

Winner of the 2011 James Beard Award for “TV Food

Personality/Host” for Good Eats, Brown is also the best-

selling author of I’m Just Here for the Food, I’m Just Here for

More Food, and Feasting on Asphalt.

A three-book series on the Good Eats program

showcases everything Brown’s fans have ever wanted to

know about the popular television show. The first book

in the series, Good Eats: The Early Years, landed on The

New York Times bestseller list for 13 weeks. The series’

second tome, Good Eats 2: The Middle Years, is chock full of

behind-the-scenes photographs and trivia, science-of-food

information, cooking tips, and recipes. It also earned a spot

on The New York Times bestseller list. The last installment

in the series, Good Eats 3: The Later Years, was hailed “a

victory lap” by the Chicago Tribune. n

WHERE THE ACTION IS Featuring

PAUL REVERE & THE RAIDERS, THE ASSOCIATION, and MITCH RYDER

Sunday, October 20, 2013, 3:00 PM


BIOGRAPHIESA spin-off of Dick Clark’s American Bandstand, the

music-based variety show Where the Action Is dominated

television sets across the country in the 1960s. Taking audi-

ences back to that time, the WHERE THE ACTION IS

tour features Paul Revere & The Raiders, The Association,

and Mitch Ryder.

Celebrated for the singles Indian Reservation and Kicks,

the Rock group PAUL REVERE & THE RAIDERS

served as the de facto house band for the popular televised

program Where the Action Is. The band’s many hits include

Hungry, Just Like Me, Louie Louie, and Steppin’ Out. The

group’s current lineup consists of founding member Paul

Revere, lead guitarist Doug Heath, bassist Ron Foos,

keyboardist Danny Krause, lead vocalist and Vocal Group

Hall of Fame inductee Darren Dowler, and drummer Tommy

Scheckel.

The lineup also features THE ASSOCIATION, who

masterminded the Gold hits Windy, Cherish, and Never My

Love. One of the most successful bands of the 1960s, the

group has sold more than 80 million albums. Its discography

includes six Gold and two Platinum albums. The Los

Angeles Times Magazine named The Association as one of

the top 50 bands formed in Los Angeles. The ensemble’s

current lineup includes original members Russ Giguere,

Larry Ramos, Jim Yester, and Jules Alexander; drummer

Bruce Pictor; keyboardist-guitarist Jordan Cole; and bass

guitarist Del Ramos.

Known for his dynamic high-octane performances,

veteran Detroit Rocker MITCH RYDER is set to deliver

his timeless hits, which include Sock It to Me, Devil With a

Blue Dress/Good Golly Miss Molly, Little Latin Lupe Lu, and

Jenny Take a Ride. In 2012, the singer released the R&B-

flavored The Promise. The musician’s raw autobiography,

Devils & Blue Dresses, is a candid account of his tumultuous

life and career and the Soul-Rock sound that helped to

establish the foundation for the Detroit music template. n

CRAIG A. MEYER: ALMOST ELTON JOHN & THE ROCKET BAND



BIOGRAPHYNamed on Rolling Stone’s list of “100 Greatest Artists

of All Time,” Sir Elton John has produced 50 Top 40 hits,

including I Guess That’s Why They Call It the Blues, Sad

Songs (Say So Much), Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me, I’m

Still Standing, Rocket Man, and Little Jeannie. The Grammy-

Oscar-Golden Globe-Tony award winner has sold more

than 250 million records worldwide and was inducted into

the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. Queen Elizabeth

II knighted John in 1998, honoring his commitment and

service to music and charity.

ALMOST ELTON JOHN & THE ROCKET BAND, featuring Craig A. Meyer as the musician,

celebrates Sir John and his decades of chart-topping hits.

With uncanny resemblance and outrageous costumes

(including platform shoes and fur coats!), award-winning

performer Meyer brings to life the Rock legend’s colorful

persona, charisma, and chart-topping songs, including

Benny and the Jets, Philadelphia Freedom, Crocodile Rock,

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Daniel, and Candle in the Wind.

Meyer is “a top-notch performer!” cheers Daily Variety.

Meyer’s other theatrical projects have included

Broadway roles in Meet Me in St. Louis, Cats, Starlight

Express, and Irving Berlin’s White Christmas. He

choreographed Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living

in Paris, which won a Suzi Bass Award for “Best Musical

Production.” Meyer’s work in the original production of Brel

earned a Suzi nomination for “Outstanding Choreography.”

Meyer’s many roles have led to collaborations with

the entertainment industry’s biggest names, including

John and Tim Rice on The Lion King and Alan Menken on

Disney’s Aladdin. Barry Manilow praised Meyer, calling him

“one of the most talented people I have ever worked with.

He can do anything!” Meyer has appeared on television’s

Will & Grace and General Hospital. His cinema roles

include Necessary Roughness, Leatherheads, Joyful Noise, and

Identity Thief. n

BIOGRAPHIESWith darkness as a canvas and light as a brush, LUMA

performers paint dazzling, sparkling images that tell stories

and spin a visual magic, evoking awe and delight. The San

Francisco Chronicle has praised the luminescent production,

calling it an “enchanting touring theatrical light show.”

MICHAEL MARLIN (Creator), who has been

touring his Luma show since 1999, was an aspiring comic-

juggler in the ’70s and ’80s. He performed in street acts, the

circus, and a belly-dance troupe, and he headlined for many

entertainers at comedy clubs. Despite an appearance on the

’70s show Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert, which highlighted

comedy and musical acts, Marlin grew increasingly

disillusioned with the fast-paced Los Angeles lifestyle and

his stagnant juggling career. He sold his belongings and

moved to paradise.

On the Big Island of Hawaii, he lived in a tree house,

where the only light at night emanated from the moon’s

glow, glittering stars, or fiery volcanoes. Inspired by the

natural beauty and the splendor of the night sky, Marlin

created a riveting production that has enraptured audiences

of all ages by bringing to life what previously could only be

imagined: mind-boggling, magical realms of light, color,

motion, and music.

With the help of eight-time Tony award-winning

lighting designer Jules Fisher, Marlin fine-tuned the

production to incorporate physical disciplines and hi-tech

illuminated objects. The result is a “techno-circus” that

has audiences sitting on the edge of their seats, mesmerized

by natural, artificial, and metaphysical light depicting

dancing fireflies and shooting stars on a darkened stage.

Add flashing screen savers and imaginary carnival rides, and

Luma becomes an “engaging show with some truly magical

moments that play creatively upon our age-old fascination

with the wonder that is light,” proclaims the San Francisco

Chronicle. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin notes that Luma “had

the kids’ attention from start to finish, and even many of the

adults in the crowd oohed and aahed at some of the more

elaborate geometric lighting effects.”

Luma has been featured on The Tonight Show and

in theaters throughout the United States, Japan, Italy,

Scotland, Holland, India, Venezuela, and the Dominican

Republic. For more information, please visit Luma at

www.lumatheater.com or on Facebook.

ALAN HOWARD (Performer) has performed

comedy-juggling acts in casino revues, concert halls,

colleges, cruise ships, and comedy clubs around the world.

His career in show business began on Romper Room.

Howard has won several honors from the International

Jugglers Association and is publisher and editor of JUGGLE

magazine. He resides in Las Vegas, Nevada.

GERALDO DITTER FLORES’ (Performer) career

began in his native Mexico. In 2000, he moved to the

United States to pursue theater arts. Flores’ credits include

Hello Dolly (national tour), Aida (LA Opera), and Chicago

Festival Ballet (Chicago, Illinois).

BECKY CASTELLS (Dancer) is originally from

the East Coast. She graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s

degree in dance from Point Park University in Pittsburgh,

Pennsylvania. She moved to Los Angeles to pursue a

career in dance and acting. Her credits include Shaqtacular

(Universal Studios), Magic Redefined (Southern California

tour), L’effleur Des Sens (Hollywood), and Luma (China

tour). Castells is a member of the Screen Actors Guild.

MELISSA STAROSZIK (Dancer) created Pop

dance crew Sinfully Sweet. She is the company manager

and choreographer and has performed with the group for

six years. Staroszik has shared the stage with Lady Gaga,

Akon, The Black Eyed Peas, and Cascada, and has toured

the world with Luma. She is a champion rhythmic gymnast,

dancer, and aerialist.

LAUREN FRIAS (Dancer) received her bachelor of

fine arts degree in dance and choreography from California

Institute of the Arts in 2011. Since graduating, Frias has

performed with Pacific Ballet Theater, Szalt, Blue 13,

The Lotus Dancers, Jordan Saenz, and Joshuah Michael.

Recently, Frias performed with Luma in Israel and Spain.

LISA ALLIN (Dancer), a five-year Luma veteran, is

pleased to return to the stage after becoming a mom. Her

credits include Francesca in Westside Story at Moonlight

Amphitheater, Tango dancer in Evita at Candlelight

Pavilion, The Tales of Hoffmann with Opera Pacific, and

The Unsinkable Molly Brown with Santa Barbara Civic

Light Opera. Allin dedicates this performance to Isabel, the

brightest light in her world. n

CHRIS ISAAK

Saturday, November 30, 2013, 8:00 PM

This performance will not include an intermission. The taking of photographs or use of recording devices is strictly prohibited.

BIOGRAPHYWith a résumé that highlights a successful music and

acting career and stints as a talk-show host, artist, and boxer,

“CHRIS ISAAK may be the closest thing popular music has

to a Renaissance man,” observes the Washington Post.

The singer-songwriter shot to prominence with his

brooding Country-Rock ballad Wicked Game, which was

featured in David Lynch’s 1991 film Wild at Heart. An

influential Atlanta radio programmer happened to see

the film and began playing the song on the air. The tune

skyrocketed to the Top 10 and became what the Los Angeles

Times called “the year’s unlikeliest hit.” Another track –

Don’t Make Me Dream About You – from the same record

also earned significant airplay, turning the Heart Shaped

World album into a multi-Platinum seller in the United

States and a hit internationally.

Isaak’s Platinum-selling album Forever Blue yielded

the popular track Somebody’s Crying. Both the song and the

record were nominated for Grammys. Another single – the

intense and bluesy Baby Did a Bad, Bad Thing – was featured

in Stanley Kubrick’s final film, the box-office hit Eyes Wide

Shut. His follow-up album, the largely acoustic Baja Sessions,

struck Gold. Isaak’s recent album, Beyond the Sun, features

his recordings of music by his greatest influences, including

Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Roy Orbison. Other albums

include the well-received Chris Isaak Christmas, the criti-

cally acclaimed greatest-hits collection Best of Chris Isaak,

Always Got Tonight, Mr. Lucky, and San Francisco Days.

Aside from his prolific music career, Isaak has ap-

peared in the movies Silence of the Lambs, Twin Peaks: Fire

Walk With Me, A Dirty Shame, The Informers, and Little

Buddha. Essentially playing himself in The Chris Isaak Show,

he charmed audiences with a humorously offbeat take on a

Rock star’s life. The Showtime program featured guest ap-

pearances by many in the music industry, including Michael

Bublé and Green Day. n

TICKET BROKERSTickets to all performances at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts (CCPA) are available exclusively through the theater’s Ticket Office and official website www.cerritoscenter.com. The CCPA does not work in conjunction with any other ticketing organizations or websites. Purchasing from a ticket broker, scalper, or unauthorized website is never a good idea because:

• You will always pay more than face value for each ticket. In many cases, the tickets you purchase from a broker are not as good as what is available directly through the CCPA Ticket Office.

• We cannot guarantee the authenticity of the tickets.• If there is an issue with your tickets or they are found

to be inauthentic, we cannot help you because you did not purchase the tickets from the theater. You will be asked to purchase new tickets for the performance or leave the premises. The face value on the tickets you are holding cannot be applied towards the purchase of new tickets.

• Ticket brokers often purchase wheelchair locations and sell them as regular seats. Not only does this practice prevent you from attending the performance, it also prevents us from selling these seats to patrons who need wheelchair accessibility.

• We cannot replace lost or stolen tickets.• We cannot contact you with any information

regarding show cancellations, performer lineup changes, or rescheduled events. All correspondence will be made to the original ticket purchaser, who may not notify you of changes made to the performance.

• Instead of supporting the performers and organizations that work hard to put on the events that you enjoy, you are rewarding people and businesses that only make it difficult for real fans like yourself from seeing your favorite performers without being charged a premium.

Following are some tips to ensure that you are purchasing from the CCPA:

• Visit or call the Ticket Office directly at (800) 300-4345 during regular business hours. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to help with ticketing questions or needs.

• Do not use a search engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.) to find our website. Many search engines make money by listing various website addresses before ours. These other websites are unauthorized to sell tickets to our events. Instead, type www.cerritoscenter.com into the website address field.

• Make sure that you are purchasing from the official CCPA website. Look at the website address and make sure that www.cerritoscenter.com is at the beginning of the website address listed. If it is, you may safely continue with your transaction. If it is not, close the page and start over as you are on an unauthorized site.

Online Ticket Brokers and Ticket Resale Services:The CCPA reserves the right to revoke all advance purchase, refund, and exchange privileges extended to a ticket’s original purchaser if tickets are found to be placed with online ticket brokers or other ticket-sales services at prices in excess of the ticket’s face value.
