The city magically comes to life to show them its many splendid wonders and helps to reunite their family in the end. The production will run at Radio City Music Hall from June 15-August 7, 2016. Tickets are currently available via Rockettes.com/newyork and at the Radio City box office.

"Mia contributed some of the most impactful choreography to the 2015 production and we are excited for her to take the lead this year with the Rockettes as the stars of the show. Her pop background, coupled with the legendary precision choreography technique that the Rockettes are known for, will be amplified by large scale technology, costuming and contemporary music to deliver the kind of experience that people expect to see at the Showplace of the Nation."

  • Patti Murin, Josh Segarra and the Cast of Lysistrata Jones
    BATTLE OF THE SEXES: (left to right) Patti Murin, Josh Segarra and the cast of Lysistrata Jones. Photo: Joan Marcus Theater Review Lysistrata Jones one of best musicals of 2011 LYSISTRATA JONES Book by Douglas Carter Beane Music & lyrics by Lewis Flinn Directed & choreographed by Dan Knechtges Walter Kerr Theatre 219 West 48th Street (212-239-6200), www.LysistrataJones.com By David NouNou It is no secret that the musicals that were offered this fall/winter season were from hunger. With the exception of a brilliant revival of Follies, which is unfortunately closing way too soon, the pickings have been mighty slim. From the abysmal revival of Godspell to the disastrous Bonnie & Clyde, there has been nothing as fresh, delightful and entertaining as Lysistrata Jones. Finally, a musical that can be enjoyed for the holiday season and beyond has arrived just in time. Based on Aristophanes’ Lysistrata, Douglas Carter Beane has updated the storyline and set it in a modern-day gymnasium where the Athens men’s basketful team has lost every game for over 30 years. Lysistrata Jones comes to the university and takes it upon herself to create a cheerleading squad to urge the boys on to victory. Upon losing the game, that is when Lyssie and the girls decide to withhold sex from the players until they will finally win a game. Thus begins the complication and the fun. Playwright Mr. Beane has written a delicious book for this musical, full of wit and genuine humor. (We at StageZine.com never reveal any of the funny quotes in a review because we feel it is a spoiler alert, and they are best enjoyed when hearing them fresh within the context of the show.).
