after another and the most astonishing dancing you’ve ever seen. No
wonder Chicago has been honored with six Tony® Awards,
two Olivier Awards, a Grammy®, and thousands of standing ovations. As

on everyone’s lips is still…Chicago.

best-loved musical returns to State Theatre New Jersey with all your
favorite songs including “Tomorrow,” “It’s the Hard-Knock Life,” and

tough can take an awful lot of determination, and sometimes, an awful
lot of determination comes in a surprisingly small package. Little

is always right around the corner, and now the best-loved musical of
all time is set to return in a new production—just as you remember it

“FRESH AND FABULOUS AND
SO MUCH FUN. IT’S A PARTY!”—Today
Superstars come and go. Cher is forever. For six straight decades,
only one unstoppable force has flat-out dominated popular
culture—breaking down barriers, pushing boundaries and letting
nothing and no one stand in her way. The Cher Show
is the Tony® Award-winning musical of her story, and it’s packed with
so much Cher that it takes three women to play her: the kid starting
out, the glam pop star, and the icon. The Cher Show
is 35 smash hits, six decades of stardom, two rock-star husbands, a
Grammy®, an Oscar®, an Emmy®, and enough Tony® Award-winning Bob
Mackie gowns to cause a sequin shortage in New York City, all in one
unabashedly fabulous new musical that will have audiences dancing in
the aisles!

“BY FAR THE FUNNIEST MUSICAL OF THE YEAR!”—Chicago Tribune
Direct from Broadway, Mean
Girls is the hilarious hit musical from an
award-winning creative team, including book writer Tina Fey (30
Rock), composer Jeff Richmond (Unbreakable
Kimmy Schmidt), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally
Blonde), and original director and choreographer CASEY
NICHOLAW (The Book of Mormon). Cady Heron may have grown
up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the vicious
ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. Soon, this naïve
newbie falls prey to a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming
but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady devises a plan to end
Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen
Bee without getting stung.

Sat, September 30, at 8pm
with Special Guest, Roger Dean
Live Presentation and Art Gallery On Site
Formed in 1968 by Jon Anderson and
the late, and much-missed, Chris Squire, YES have been one of the
most innovative, influential and best-loved bands in rock music
history. Their 1970s albums The Yes Album, Fragile,
Close To The Edge, Yessongs (a
triple live album set), Tales From Topographic Oceans, Relayer,
and Going For The One were ground-breaking in
musical style and content. Their music also became synonymous with
artist Roger Dean whose distinctive YES logo design and artwork
adorned the lavish gatefold presentation sleeves of many YES albums.
