42nd Street

Opens March 10

Winner of three Tony Awards,
42nd Street will make its Jacksonville theatrical debut at the new Alhambra Theatre on March 10.  
Plus, a new menu from Executive Chef Matthew Medure.

 

 

 The quintessential backstage musical – a show about a show -- 42nd Street tells the story of a naïve young actress named Peggy Sawyer who has come to audition for a new Broadway musical and finds herself suddenly starring in the show!   A celebration of Broadway and the people involved in shows, 42nd Street features varied and upbeat dance numbers, and hit musical songs such as “We’re in the Money,” “Lullaby of Broadway,” and “Shuffle off to Buffalo.”

Said new owner, Craig Smith,  “This show really does take the theatre back to its roots, and it’s a perfect way to celebrate the rebirth of the Alhambra in all its glory.  Back in the day, the Alhambra was the cultural centerpiece of Jacksonville.  A night at the Alhambra was a big night out.  We are thrilled with this show because it has that air about it – a true Broadway play for a great iconic theatre.”
    


42nd Street will be ushered in in grand style on March 12 with the first Gala Grand Opening in several years.  In her hey-day the Alhambra opened each new run with a gala event the first Friday of each show.  Complete with red carpets, skylights, and velvet ropes, VIPs, media and season ticket partners, the Gala will return!

Also making its debut for 42nd Street will be a new menu by Executive Chef Matthew Medure.  Chef Medure will prepare a unique menu that feature that includes dishes from the 1940’s era as well as some items he occasionally offers at his restaurants, Matthew’s and Medure.   The new menu includes

Alhambra Debut for three Young Actors Truly a Thrill for Actors, Parents, Theatre Owners and Crowd

 

(Jacksonville, FL) – They arrived like stars by limousine and walked down they red carpet like they’ve done it a million times.  To more than 100 onlookers, they posed for photos, high-fived the real cast and soaked in their moment.  And for three young actors, it was a long day of great moments that culminated when they took the stage for a sold out house at the Alhambra Theatre on January 30 for a guest role in Disney’s High School Musical On Stage.
