SUMMARY:Parade
DESCRIPTION:“Parade”: A Haunting Journey Through American History \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $40.00 (Includes Tax + Service Fee) Dates: September 05 – September 28\, 2025 Special Features: American Sign Language (ASL) interpreted performance available on the Orange date. Hearing enhancers are also provided at the tech booth for every performance\, on a first-come\, first-served basis (quantities are limited). \n\n\n\nPrepare for a deeply moving and thought-provoking theatrical experience with “Parade\,” the acclaimed Tony Award-winning musical. This powerful production delves into a dark chapter of America’s past\, exploring the true story of Leo Frank\, a Jewish factory manager wrongly accused of murder in 1913 Georgia amidst a backdrop of rampant religious intolerance\, political injustice\, and racial tension. \n\n\n\nWith a compelling book by the celebrated playwright Alfred Uhry\, known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning “Driving Miss Daisy\,” and a magnificent\, haunting score by the three-time Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown (composer of “Songs For a New World\,” “The Last Five Years\,” and “The Bridges of Madison County”)\, “Parade” is a masterclass in storytelling. It meticulously examines how prejudice and fear can distort justice\, while simultaneously celebrating the enduring power of love and hope in the face of overwhelming adversity. \n\n\n\nThe musical is based on the infamous 1913 trial and subsequent lynching of Leo Frank. Frank\, a Brooklyn-raised Jew living in Atlanta\, was accused of killing 13-year-old Mary Phagan\, an employee at the factory he managed. Fueled by sensationalist media and rampant antisemitism\, the trial became a national scandal. Despite inconsistencies in testimony and a lack of credible evidence\, Frank was convicted. His death sentence was later commuted by the governor\, leading to his abduction from prison and lynching by an angry mob. “Parade” powerfully brings this harrowing narrative to the stage\, reminding audiences of the dangers of unchecked bigotry and the fight for truth. \n\n\n\nImportant Note: This production is best suited for mature audiences aged 17 and above due to its exploration of sensitive historical themes\, strong language\, and mature content. \n\n\n\nBooking Information: To secure your tickets\, simply select your desired date and time\, then choose your seats. Please be aware that all ticket sales are final and are not refundable or exchangeable for any reason. \n\n\n\nFind more exceptional events\, cultural highlights\, and local listings within our comprehensive Explore New Jersey Directory.

SUMMARY:The Bronx Wanderers
DESCRIPTION:What comes to mind when a father\, his two sons\, and their two high school classmates get together and create a show? For starters\, you can say a diverse recipe of hilarious personal stories\, a vast repertoire of songs through multiple decades and genres\, and one family’s journey together through life and music. The Bronx Wanderers pride themselves on being one of the only shows able to entertain grandparents\, their children\, and the grandchildren all in one sweeping musical tour de force. How do they accomplish this? Well\, the generation gap between the band members (30+ years) forces them to satisfy themselves musically\, which satisfies every audience they’ve encountered. The chemistry and energy they exert show after show proves they are still having the best time together on stage\, and you can tell they perform each show like it’s their first or last.\nThe show’s founder and patriarch\, Yo’ Vinny\, takes you on a musical journey through his illustrious career in the record business while working for Lifesong and Columbia Records since he was 17 years old. He’s worked with too many artists to mention\, but in the show\, “each song you hear tonight is someone I’ve either had the pleasure to produce\, sing backup for\, or worked with in the record industry during my 30-year career.” For instance\, you’ll hear songs by Dion and The Belmonts\, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons\, Billy Joel\, The Animals\, Queen\, and even an artist or two from today’s generation. As they say in the band and in countless reviews\, regardless of how old you are\, coming to the show\, everyone leaves feeling like they’re 20 years old.\nThe Bronx Wanderers have been going strong for over 16 years and have amassed many accolades such as touring the entire country headlining festivals\, PACs\, and casinos\, securing a permanent residency in Las Vegas from 2016 to the present\, filling in for Frankie Valli in Dubai\, being the first and only act to have opened for Tony Orlando and Danny Aiello\, backing Dean Martin’s daughter\, Deana\, for multiple shows\, performing the national anthem for the NY Rangers at Madison Square Garden and the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas\, and still managing to have time to volunteer and do charity benefits for the Win-Win Charity Organization\, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital\, and multiple Veteran’s and Armed Forces charities and galas.\nHis two sons are no strangers to their levels of success. His younger son\, Nick\, had the opportunity to drum and perform for Frankie Valli with the Chicago Jersey Boys cast and was even offered a role in Blue Man Group (but his father and brother just couldn’t let him go.) The older son\, Vin A.\, the music director and producer for the group\, is an accomplished songwriter and arranger who recently got to open for Bon Jovi at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in front of 18\,000 people with his original music.
