Weston will be alive with the sound of music tonight and throughout this weekend. A musical experience dubbed "A Grand Night for Singing" kicks off at 7:30 p.m. today at the St. Francis of Assisi parish hall. The event is a celebration of the works of Rodgers & Hammerstein and will continue through the weekend.
Showcasing the popular and oft-imitated styles of the dynamic composing duo, music director Todd Caporizzo will "bring the Broadway classics to life with songs from 'The Sound of Music,' 'South Pacific,' 'The King and I,' 'Cinderella,' 'Oklahoma,' 'Carousel' and more," Aline Weiller said in a statement.
"We're thrilled to present 'A Grand Night for Singing' to the Weston community and beyond," Caporizzo said. "Rodgers and Hammerstein have a repertoire that is unmatched which both adults and children will enjoy. The show promises to be a crowd pleaser."
