Oct 25 - Oct 26    Bandstand - Tony Award® - Winning Broadway Musical at Oklahoma City Community College
From three-time Tony® winner and Hamilton choreographer, Andy Blankenbuehler, comes an inspiring new American musical that explodes with infectious music and high-octane, heart-stopping dancing.

It’s 1945, and six soldiers return from war to a changed nation. When NBC announces a national competition to find the nation’s next great musical superstars, they form a band unlike any the nation has ever seen. Along the way, they discover the power of music to face the impossible, find their voice, and finally feel like they have a place to call home.

“The show defies you not to be moved” (Time Out New York).
Tickets available online at tickets.occc.edu, by phone at (405) 682-7579, or by visiting the Box Office Monday through Friday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.
