FROM BROADWAY TO RUMI TO "YOUR INNER ARTIST"

EVENT #1
Arts at St. Johns takes a trip through the history of Broadway
THE EVOLUTION OF THE BROADWAY MUSICAL - a historic musical revue
The "Evolution of Broadway," created by David Kingery, is a Broadway musical
revue that explores the history of Broadway music, dance & subject content
over the past century.
Broadway has always been cutting edge and has addressed subject matters
that, at the time, seem controversial. What was taboo 50 years ago is often
commonplace or even obsolete now. EVOLUTION will explore how styles of
music, singing, instrumentation and dance have changed and morphed over the
years.
The talented cast of David Kingery, Kristen Fox, Ray Yanez, Nydia Noreiga,
Jesse Carlo, Melissa Youngblood, Kelly Roberts and Carl Lauderman leads the
audience on a historical journey through the highlights of Broadway.
Broadway has survived two world wars, various political upheavals, the Great
Depression and now another economic downturn. Arts at St. Johns shows the
audience that this great American art form is strong and resilient -
Broadway will persevere!!!
