SNEEZY – Best friends since 1st grade, sharing the groove one beat at a time. Sneezy brings the funk and soul from Chicago! Sneezy’s sound is the perfect culmination of all things good in music. It fuses the genres of pop, reggae, hip-hop, and rock, and it has a natural, summery sunshine feel to every track. Their neo-soul undertone provides a little something extra to their music and creates an infectious, addicting rhythm that you’ll be glad to have stuck in your head. Like James Brown, Sneezy turns in a killer show and leaves it all on the stage, every time. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Sneezy’s catchy, cascading rhythms spiral onwards, leading scores of carousing fans dancing & singing along with songs they know by heart. From frontman Brett O’Connor: “We’re always having fun on stage, and you really get our music when you see us live. Our mission is to create an ever-growing community through our music.”
KUF KNOTZ & CHRISTINE ELISE
Küf Knotz (Producer/MC) and Christine Elise (Harpist/Vocalist) have brought their unique blend of hip-hop, soul and classical traditions to various communities. The unlikely pair connected and built a similar bond to creating positive, forward thinking music fusing boom bap era and lo-fi inspired beats supported by the harp. Their performance takes you on an era fusing, genre bending journey. And, you can dance to it. The duo has been featured on Sugar Shack Sessions & NPR Music.

Prepare to be transported to a world of idealism, courage, and timeless melodies as Music Mountain Theatre proudly presents “Man of La Mancha,” one of the most beloved and enduring musicals in theatrical history. This powerful production, inspired by Miguel de Cervantes’ epic 17th-century masterpiece Don Quixote, invites audiences to witness a profound story of conviction set against the dramatic backdrop of the Spanish Inquisition.

“Man of La Mancha” masterfully weaves a play-within-a-play, as Cervantes finds himself imprisoned and facing trial. To defend himself and his fellow inmates, he enacts the extraordinary tale of Alonso Quijana, an elderly gentleman who, in his “madness,” renames himself the chivalrous knight “Don Quixote” and sets forth on a noble quest to right the world’s wrongs. This celebrated musical, which garnered five Tony Awards including Best Musical in its original 1965 Broadway run, speaks to the power of imagination and the human spirit’s indomitable will to find beauty and purpose, even in the bleakest of circumstances.

Audiences will be swept away by the rousing, Spanish-inflected score, which features iconic and unforgettable numbers such as “The Impossible Dream,” “I, Don Quixote,” “Dulcinea,” “I Really Like Him,” and “Little Bird.” These songs have resonated with millions, becoming anthems for those who dare to reach for a world that “should be” rather than merely accepting the world “as it is.”

Important Information for Our Guests:

Content Warning: Please be advised that “Man of La Mancha” contains theatrical haze/fog, explores mature themes, includes references to bodily harm, and features scenes of both emotional and physical intensity.

🎭 August 8-10, 2025 | 7:00 PM – SUN at 3:00PMLocation: Levoy Theatre, Millville, NJ

Step back into the swingin’ ’60s with Hairspray, the Tony Award-winning musical sensation, live at the historic Levoy Theatre on Friday, August 8 at 7:00 PM.

Set in 1962 Baltimore, this high-energy production follows Tracy Turnblad, a big-hearted teen with big dreams (and even bigger hair), as she dances her way from outsider to TV star on the “Corny Collins Show.” Along the way, she challenges stereotypes, fights for integration, and finds love—with plenty of laughs, catchy tunes, and dazzling choreography in between.

Whether you’re a lifelong musical fan or just discovering this classic for the first time, Hairspray delivers an uplifting message with timeless charm and toe-tapping joy. This is feel-good theater at its finest.

DRAMARAMA
A DRAMARAMA WEEKEND, AUG. 9 & 10 AT THE WONDER BAR
TWO NIGHTS, TWO DIFFERENT SHOWS FEATURING TWO GREAT DRAMARAMA ALBUMS
On Saturday the band will play Color TV in its entirety and on Sunday night the band performs Stuck in Wonderamaland in its entirety plus both nights feature your fave Dramarama songs plus tracks from each one of their albums. This has never happened before and may never happen again!
Rooted in distorted grit, punk energy, and American songbook eloquence, and sporting three of the original “four-ish” members (“four-ish,” you ask? Well, they didn’t start out with a permanent drummer), Dramarama has always been both classic and cutting-edge. This iconic alternative rock group was formed in the basement of a record store in Wayne, New Jersey by John Easdale [singer, songwriter], Mark Englert [lead, rhythm guitar], Peter Wood [lead, rhythm guitar], and have, for the past 18-plus years, been joined by Mike Davis [bass] and Tony Snow [drums], who not only preserve but strengthen the spirit that established Dramarama as a history making force in 1982.
As the story goes, John, Peter and Mark traded New Jersey for Los Angeles. Long before the nineties alt rock radio boom, the West Coast initially embraced the group’s single, “Anything, Anything (I’ll Give You…)” (off their 1985 debut, Cinéma Vérité), as the de facto anthem of the nascent alternative nation. It notably made history as one of the most requested songs of all time on KROQ 106.7 FM in Los Angeles. It could also be heard loud and clear everywhere from A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master to HBO’s Entourage. And although Dramarama has yet to become a household name (still the next big thing), Easdale’s work has been cited as an influence on several major bands of the last three decades.
On the heels of Cinéma Vérité’s success the band delivered a decade of fan favorite albums: Box Office Bomb [1987], Stuck in Wonderamaland [1989], Vinyl [1991] and Hi-Fi Sci-Fi [1993], and after a 10-year hiatus served up Everybody Dies in 2005. As their legacy solidified, more critical praise followed. The Chicago Sun Times christened them “one of America’s best rock bands” and the Los Angeles Times proclaimed Easdale “one of the finest singer/songwriters of these times.” And the praise continues as Dramarama’s latest release, Color TV, was named one of the Top 10 Albums of 2020 by legendary music journalist and critic Robert Christgau.
The band is having more fun than ever and exudes a confidence and ease that can only come through experience and mutual respect. As Easdale puts it, “Few things compare to that sense of uninhibitedness you feel during a great show — waving your fist, stomping your feet, singing out loud and not [caring] about anything but the music. I’m proud to say that this is the feeling experienced by both the band and audience at the vast majority of Dramarama live shows — fast, tight, loud, sweaty sing-a-longs. EVERY time we play, the audience’s pleasure is our primary concern.”
