There is no doubt about it, when it comes to all around entertainment, there is nothing like the Prescott POPS Symphony and the POPS Chorus when they put on a performance of some of Broadways favorite musical songs. Under the baton of Darrell Rowader, the orchestra and singers will knock your socks off with Andrew Lloyd Webbers most stunning numbers, including Don not Cry For Me Argentina from Evita, Memory and Jellicle Ball from Cats the Musical,and Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera. Step back in time to the music from two of historys most distinguished and prolific collaborative partnerships Rodgers and Hammerstein. You will get lost in the romance of People Will Say We are In Love from Oklahoma and Some Enchanted Evening from South Pacific, and you will have a hard time sitting still when you hear Shall We Dance from The King and I. Look to your Prescott POPS for superior entertainment and the sheer enjoyment that only music can provide.
