What's Blooming at WHBPAC?

May is here and we can finally say spring is in the air! And flowers are not the only thing that’s blooming. We’ve planted the seeds for an amazing season at the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center. See what’s sprouting this May as we welcome a Season of Celebration with exciting performances for even our youngest theatregoers! May 11, 2013, 8pm Boz Scaggs Eclectic Soul Man... He's a Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter/guitarist known for his explorations in blues, R&B, and rock. His latest album, MEMPHIS, oozes with the smooth, timeless soul of the title. Showcasing both original songs and choice covers with his distinctive silk-lined voice, Boz calls this tour, "the closest thing to transcendence." TICKETS: $165, $145, $135 May 18, 2013, 8pm Bruce Hornsby Musical Shape Shifter... Here's your chance to get up-close and personal with one of the finest musicians around. A Grammy-winning singer/songwriter, he first topped the charts with THE WAY IT IS. Now, Hornsby showcases his unique improvisational style in classical, rock, pop, bluegrass and blues, with nothing but a piano and his voice. Still blissfully making joyful noise, he'll forge a deeper relationship with both his piano playing and his loyal fans in this intimate solo performance. TICKETS: $95, $85, $75 May 19, 2013, 8pm Toots & The Maytals Unplugged Acoustic Tour... Not only did he invent the word reggae, Toots and The Maytals define reggae music to this day. Together, the band has been creating an energetic blend of reggae, funk, rock, gospel, and ska for over half a century. The organic, acoustic setting of the PAC perfectly suits these Grammy Award-winners' mellow and soulful style. TICKETS: $66, $56, $46 May 25, 2013, 3pm & 7pm Seussical The Family Musical "Oh, the thinks you can think" when Dr. Seuss's best-loved stories collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper! Adapted from the Broadway version, Seussical is written by Broadway veterans Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Ragtime, Once on This Island, the film Anastasia). The Cat in the Hat is the host and emcee (and all-around mischief-maker) in this romp through the Seuss classics, which tells the story of 'Horton Hears a Who' and others! This production is recommended for audiences age 4 and up. TICKETS: $25, $20, $15 May 26, 2013, 8pm Mario Cantone Over-The-Top, Pop Culture Comedy His celebrity impersonations and hilarious musical impressions are dead-on. Best known as Anthony Marantino in the HBO series, SEX AND THE CITY, this outrageously joyful stand-up comedian and stage actor, he has also appeared on the TODAY show, COMEDY CENTRAL, and as a guest host on THE VIEW. His riotous performance and extravagant tantrums will leave you in stitches!
