“I’VE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD AT A BROADWAY
MUSICAL!”—NPR
Getting away with murder can be so much fun—and there’s no better proof than the knock-’em-dead hit show that’s earned unanimous raves and won the 2014 Tony Award® for Best Musical: A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder!
Coming direct from New York, Gentleman’s Guide tells the uproarious story of Monty Navarro, a distant heir to a family fortune who sets out to jump the line of succession by—you guessed it—eliminating the eight pesky relatives (all played by one fearless man) who stand in his way. All the while, Monty has to juggle his mistress (she’s after more than just love), his fiancée (she’s his cousin, but who’s keeping track?), and the constant threat of landing behind bars! Of course, it will all be worth it if he can slay his way to his inheritance—and be done in time for tea.

It’s a holiday concert filled with the joy of singing when the great-grandchildren of the cherished Sound of Music von Trapp family join musical theater star Stephanie J. Block and the NSO Pops. The von Trapps have a “folk-pop sound that’s uniquely theirs” (USA Today) that blends beautifully with the “simply stunning” (The Washington Post) Stephanie J. Block (Elphaba in Broadway’s Wicked, Liza Minnelli in Broadway’s The Boy from Oz). Featuring traditional favorites alongside fresh new tunes and arrangements, this concert sports seasonal spirit in spades—and with The Washington Chorus, a visit from Santa Claus, and the Concert Hall festively bedecked, the holidays have never been brighter.
These Broadway powerhouses team up for a hit parade of contemporary musical theater tunes, including fresh favorites from The Last Five Years, Bonnie and Clyde, The Bridges of Madison County, and more!

★★★★YOU’LL FEEL THE EARTH MOVE.
BEAUTIFUL is the Tony®– and Grammy® Award–winning inspiring true story of Carole King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from being a part of a hit songwriting team with her husband
Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way,
she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation.
