WSO has joined forces with ‘LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER’ former Executive Producer, the one and only, 5 time Emmy Award winning, Andrew Carl Wilk to bring 'BROADWAY SCORES!' to the magnificent stage of the Palace Theater - Waterbury, CT on Saturday, May 17th.
Through our enduring partnership with The Palace Theater - Waterbury, CT - on this wonderful night we will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Palace Theater’s grand re-opening with this spectacular Broadway concert.
Join us for an exciting night of beautiful music and fond memories, as we celebrate 20 years of Broadway musicals at the Palace Theater!
Together with a roster of Broadway performers (including Andrea McArdle, Broadway's original "Annie!"), the Waterbury Symphony Orchestra, conducted by five-time Emmy Award-winning producer & director Andrew Carl Wilk, will perform favorite selections from shows that have graced our stage since our reopening in 2004.
Commemorating our score in years (20) with excerpts from the musical scores enjoyed over the years in our historic venue, Broadway Scores will be an evening of entertainment, inspiration, and celebration.
WSO's Artistic Director, Leif Bjaland will hand the baton to special guest conductor Andrew Carl Wilk, the Emmy Award-winning producer who served as Executive Producer, 'Live From Lincoln Center' for just under a decade.
