Michael McDonald & America

Known for his husky, soulful baritone voice, Michael McDonald has been a fixture in American music for over four decades.  In his early years, this five-time Grammy Award winner worked with Steely Dan and was also a member of the Doobie Brothers before embarking on his solo career.  McDonald’s distinctive voice made popular such songs as “Takin’ It to the Streets,” “What a Fool Believes” and “Minute by Minute.”  America’s extraordinary four-decade musical legacy of consummately crafted pop/rock songs, trademark lush harmonies and evocative lyrical landscapes will never go out of style. This legendary rock group’s hits include “A Horse with No Name,” “Sister Golden Hair,” “Ventura Highway,” “I Need You” and “You Can Do Magic.”Celebrate the season with us as these music legends bring us some of their greatest hits along with classic holiday favorites presented at 7 pm.

Shrek The Musical

Based on the Oscar®-winning DreamWorks film that started it all, brings the hilarious story of everyone’s favorite ogre to life on stage. In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre – not a handsome prince – shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey who won’t shut up, a villain with a SHORT temper, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you’ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there’s one on hand… and his name is Shrek. Featuring a terrific score of 19 all-new songs, big laughs, great dancing and breathtaking scenery, WWOR-TV proclaims SHREK THE MUSICAL, “FAR, FAR AND AWAY THE FUNNIEST NEW MUSICAL ON BROADWAY!” Presented at 7:30 pm.
