By: A.A. Cristi Feb. 27, 2018
Victoria Theatre Association announced the 2018-2019 Premier Health Broadway Series, Projects Unlimited Star Attractions, the Morris Furniture Company Family Series, and National Geographic Live Series, sponsored by Subaru of America and Wagner Subaru, tonight at a special event for Season Ticket Holders, donors, sponsors and friends of Victoria Theatre Association.
The 2018-2019 Season Announcement event was held in the Victoria Theatre to an audience of season ticket holders, donors, sponsors, and volunteers. The evening included a surprise appearance from Arica Jackson from the cast of WAITRESS as well as a video "shout out" from Lexie Dorsett Sharp, a cast member in the national touring production of SCHOOL OF ROCK.
"Our 2018-2019 Premier Health Broadway Series will bring a variety of shows that will be enjoyable for all ages," said Ken Neufeld, VTA President and CEO. "From classic musicals LES MISÉRABLES and THE KING AND I, to the latest from Broadway including SCHOOL OF ROCK, the touching FINDING NEVERLAND, ON YOUR FEET (featuring the infectious music of Gloria Estefan) and WAITRESS, the new musical with words and music written by Sara Bareilles. Our Projects Unlimited Star Attraction Series brings THE WIZARD OF OZ, RUDOLF THE RED-NOSED REINDEER: THE MUSICAL, CHICAGO, and the much-anticipated return of THE BOOK OF MORMON."
"The 2018-2019 Morris Furniture Company Family Series include shows the whole family can enjoy such as THE UGLY DUCKLING, THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH, THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS and many more magical titles," continued Neufeld. "We appreciate how these shows bring the whole family together for live theatre at the historic Victoria Theatre."
Renewal packets for all current Premier Health Broadway Series Season Ticket Holders will mail the morning of Feb. 28. The deadline for current Season Ticket Holders to request changes to Broadway Season Ticket packages is March 13. The deadline to renew 2018-2019 Broadway Season Ticket packages is March 16. Season Ticket sales for the Morris Furniture Company Family Series and National Geographic Live Series begin later in the spring.
The evening also celebrated Broadway Series title sponsor Premier Health. Ricia Ballas, VTA VP-Development, thanked Premier Health for its investment in the arts and emphasized the importance and appreciation of their more than 29 years of support to Victoria Theatre Association. Premier's support helps boost economic impact, recruit top talent to the region and provide an entertainment outlet for the Miami Valley.
