CTE Opens Season with Red Curtain Broadway Revue November 19

A bit of Broadway comes to Ellensburg with the Red Curtain Broadway Revue, an evening of favorites from a variety of Broadway classics both old and new. This year, the Red Curtain Broadway Revue will showcase numbers from Matilda, Sister Act, The Little Mermaid, 42nd Street, Mary Poppins, and more.

The Revue features students in Central Washington University’s bachelor of fine arts musical theatre performance program, and spotlights their singing, dancing, and acting skills in a variety of scenes, solos, and excerpts from musical theatre. Choreographed, directed, and performed by CWU students, the production combines the enthusiasm and exuberance of youth with professional stage skills, along with serious talent.

The Red Curtain Broadway Revue will be performed November 19, 20, and 21 at 7:30 p.m. in McConnell Auditorium. There will also be a matinee performance at 2:00 p.m. on November 22. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for seniors/students, and $8 for CWU students with ID. Tickets can be purchased online at www.cwu.edu/theatre/tickets or by calling 509-963-1429. Tickets may also be purchased in person at the Wildcat Shop Customer Service at the Student Union and Recreation Building.
