Before she was hit-maker Carole King — she was Carole Klein, a spunky, young songwriter from Brooklyn with a unique voice. From the chart-topping hits she wrote for the biggest acts in music to her own life-changing, trailblazing success with Tapestry, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical takes you back to where it all began — and takes you on the ride of a lifetime.

 

Beautiful is the inspiring tale about a girl who became King with a stirring book by the late Oscar and Tony-nominated Douglas McGrath and the music and lyrics of icons Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil. Featuring such unforgettable classics as "You've Got a Friend", "One Fine Day", "So Far Away", "Take Good Care of My Baby", "Up on the Roof", "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling", "Will You Love Me Tomorrow", and "Natural Woman", this Tony® and Grammy® Award-winning musical phenomenon is filled with the songs you remember and a story you'll never forget.

This is the love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer, who are returning to their summer home on Golden Pond for the forty-eighth year. He is a retired professor, nearing eighty, with heart palpitations and a failing memory—but still as tart-tongued, observant, and eager for life as ever. Ethel, ten years younger, and the perfect foil for Norman, delights in all the small things that have enriched and continue to enrich their long life together. They are visited by their divorced, middle-aged daughter and her dentist fiancé, who then go off to Europe, leaving his teenage son behind for the summer. The boy quickly becomes the “grandchild” the elderly couple have longed for, and as Norman revels in taking his ward fishing and thrusting good books at him, he also learns some lessons about modern teenage awareness—and slang—in return. In the end, as the summer wanes, so does their brief idyll, and in the final, deeply moving moments of the play, Norman and Ethel are brought even closer together by the incidence of a mild heart attack. Time, they know, is now against them, but the years have been good and, perhaps, another summer on Golden Pond still awaits.

Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney's The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. With music by eight-time Academy Award winner, Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater and a compelling book by Doug Wright, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including "Under the Sea," "Kiss the Girl" and "Part of Your World."

 

Ariel, King Triton's youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems, and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.

Join us for this celebrated holiday tradition! It is Christmas Eve, when the crotchety and cruel Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his old business partner, Jacob Marley. Marley warns Scrooge of the spirits to follow and to take heed of what is to come. The Ghost of Christmas Past and Present show Scrooge the carefree child he once was, and how money and life have hardened his soul. Once he is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Future, Scrooge learns the fate that awaits him, should he not change his ways and let the joy of Christmas into his heart.

Stocks are falling on fears of a global trade war. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has been down over 800 points at times after President Trump threatened to impose new tariffs on countries that oppose the sale of Greenland to the U.S. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq were also down over one-percent in a broad sell-off.        A majority of the Supreme Court appears to be skeptical of Hawaii's "vampire rule" related to firearms. Justices heard arguments today on the rule, which requires anyone carrying a firearm to ask for permission to enter private property. It's called the "vampire rule" because fictional vampires must get permission to enter a home. The conservative justices of the court seemed to suggest the rule violates the Second Amendment right to bear arms.        President Trump says ICE is rounding up dangerous criminals in Minnesota as protests continue in the state. Today in the White House Press Room, Trump held up pictures of the alleged criminal immigrants with descriptions of their crimes. His comments come as anti-ICE protests heat up after the deadly shooting of Renee Good by an agent.        The first trial of an official accused in the slow police response to the deadly mass shooting at a Texas elementary school could go to the jury this week. Prosecutors say former Uvalde school officer Adrian Gonzales failed to confront the gunman after arriving at Robb Elementary School during the massacre May 24th, 2022. Nineteen children and two teachers were killed. On Tuesday, prosecutors rested their case and Gonzales's attorneys have begun their defense.        The NBA is out with the schedule for the 2026 Finals. The league announced the best-of-seven series is set to begin Wednesday, June 3rd. All games are set to be televised on ABC with tip-off at 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time. If the series extends beyond four games, Games Five, Six, and Seven are slated for June 13th, 16th, and 19th.        Harry Styles is set to release his first single in three years. The Grammy award-winning singer is releasing his long-awaited new song "Aperture." This will serve as the lead track of his new album "Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally." Styles first announced the album last Thursday on his social media platforms. The song releases this Friday.
