Rhinestone Cowgirls begins playing May 21 in FST’s Goldstein Cabaret.
Florida Studio Theatre (FST) kicks off its Summer Cabaret Series with Rhinestone Cowgirls, a journey through all things country music, celebrating its evolution from humble beginnings to the giants of the music industry.
Three powerhouse vocalists help you relive classics such as Patsy Cline’s “Crazy,” Tammy Wynette’s “Stand by Your Man,” and Loretta Lynn’s “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” as well as new favorites like Carrie Underwood’s “Last Name.”
Rhinestone Cowgirls was created by Nancy Allen, an artist with over 20 years of experience in the theatre industry who also created Divas Three which was part of FST’s 2023 Summer Season.
“Both country fans and non-country music fans will love this show,” said Allen. “One of my favorite comments that we get after the show often is, ‘I didn’t know I was a fan of country music until I saw your show!’ That is so rewarding to hear because I paid special attention to creating a show where everyone could connect to the songs in some way, whether a diehard country fan or not.”
Bringing these beloved songs to life onstage are three outstanding female vocalists: Samantha Duval, Charity Farrell, and Gianna Maria. Duval was in FST’s production of Little Shop of Horrors last winter season as well as being part of Divas Three in FST’s
2023 Summer Season. She also was part of the national tours of Cirque Musica and The Celtic Ladies and has performed at regional theatres across the country. Farrell was a semi-finalist in the FOX series I Can See Your Voice and has originated roles Off Broadway. Maria is an international Singer, Dancer, Songwriter, Actress, and Composer. She has since been delivering powerful performances as a lead production singer onboard Carnival Cruise Line for the past six years.
Rhinestone Cowgirls begins playing May 21 in FST’s Goldstein Cabaret. Single tickets range from $18-$42. Tickets are now on sale at FloridaStudioTheatre.org or at 941.366.9000.
Rhinestone Cowgirls is part of a three-show subscription package.
