A Show “So Good, So Good, So Good!” You Won’t Want to Miss It!

Finish these lyrics:

“Hands touchin’ hands, reaching out, touching me, touchin’ you.”

It’s a song that almost everyone knows. Whether the last time you sang the iconic “Bum, bum, bum!” from “Sweet Caroline” was at a college sporting event, your cousin’s wedding or a New Year's Eve party, it’s a melody that’s become part of our cultural zeitgeist. Now you can learn about the man behind the music you love when A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical comes to Walton Arts Center.

Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A Beautiful Noise is the uplifting true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became a chart-busting, show-stopping American rock icon. With 120 million albums sold, a catalogue of classics like “America,” “Forever in Blue Jeans” and “Sweet Caroline,” an induction into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, a Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award and sold-out concerts around the world that made him bigger than Elvis, Neil Diamond’s story was made to shine on Broadway- and head out on the road across America.  

Like Jersey Boys and Beautiful: The Carol King Musical before it, A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical is an inspiring, exhilarating, energy-filled musical memoir, that tells the untold true story of how America’s greatest hitmaker became a star, set to the songs that defined his career.  

“This biographical drama is a heartwarming celebration of Mr. Diamond’s uplifting music and inspirational life.”
— The Washington Times

This Classic Board Game Comes to Life in a Hilarious Whodunit, Clue!

We all know and love the iconic pieces of this timeless board game:  

Six wooden characters. Six miniature weapons. Nine rooms. One killer.  

Murder and blackmail are on the menu when six mysterious guests assemble at Boddy Manor for a night they’ll never forget! Was it Mrs. Peacock in the study with the knife? Or was it Colonel Mustard in the library with the wrench? Based on the fan-favorite 1985 Paramount Pictures movie and inspired by the classic Hasbro game, Clue is the ultimate whodunit that will leave you dying of laughter and keep you guessing until the final twist.  

“It’s funny and frothy and light, the kind of breezy night at the theater that most audiences would kill for right now.”
— Entertainment Weekly

Most importantly, Stuart continues to record and release keenly relevant music – songs that honor country’s rich legacy while advancing it into the future. Don’t miss this opportunity to see him in an “up close and personal” experience. 

Sunny Sweeney  

Friday, March 6 

The mastery of hole-in-the-wall venues, a major label stint and serious songwriting chops make Sunny Sweeney something of a rarity: an artist with barroom cred, mainstream validation and songs meaty enough to connect with any listener. Just as comfortable commanding a stadium stage on tour with Bob Seger as she is pouring her heart out from a listening room stool, this humble East Texas kid sings her own songs made up of equal parts wit, soul and hard truth.  

 

Mary Gauthier 

Saturday, May 16 

Grammy-nominated Mary Gauthier is one of the best songwriters of her generation, having written songs for Jimmy Buffett, Dolly Parton, Boy George, Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw and more. Since the release of her groundbreaking album Drag Queens in Limousines 25 years ago, Gauthier has brought together all kinds of folks from all walks of life with her deeply personal, yet paradoxically universal work.

André Mehmari 

Saturday, Sept. 20 

To music lovers and critics in Brazil, André Mehmari is a musical wonder and a source of national pride. All the world’s songbooks and literature are his realm – a borderless inspiration expressed in his compositions and improvisations. The latter takes special form in his solo piano performances where he invites audience suggestions, which he spins into an improvised suite. Mehmari invites you to come to the concert with the music you love and offers it for the creation of these one-time-only but forever-memorable creations.  

Tuck and Patti 

Friday, Oct. 3 

For over 45 years, this unique vocal and guitar duo has cast its passionate musical spell worldwide, capturing the hearts of lovers, the respect of jazz buffs and the jaw-dropping awe of guitarists and singers. They have appearing at times alongside Miles Davis, Count Basie, George Benson, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock and many others and have long been regarded by musicians and critics as the standard for a genre-defying, improvising musical duo.  

 

Camille ThurmaN quartet

Friday, Oct. 24

Mike Stern Band with Leni Stern, Bob Franceschini, Jimmy Haslip & Steve Pruit 

Saturday, Nov. 15

One of the great jazz guitarists of his generation, Mike Stern has the unique ability to play with the finesse and lyricism of Jim Hall, the driving swing of Wes Montgomery and the turbulent, overdriven attack of Jimi Hendrix. Growing up, Stern revered all three of those guitar immortals, along with such potent blues guitarists as Albert and B.B. King. Aspects of those seminal influences can be heard in his playing on the 18 recordings he has released as a leader or in his acclaimed sideman work for Miles Davis, Billy Cobham, the Brecker Brothers, Jaco Pastorius, Steps Ahead, David Sanborn; Blood, Sweat & Tears; Joe Henderson and the all-star Four Generations of Miles band.

Michael Mayo 

Saturday, Feb. 21 

Michael Mayo leans on his intuition as a vocalist, composer, songwriter and arranger. He stretches his voice through layers of heavenly harmonizing, hard-hitting beatboxing and heartfelt crooning without filter or pretense. This allows his voice to transmit raw emotion above an ever-evolving backdrop of jazz, neo-soul and R&B. He unveiled his full-length debut, Bones, in 2021 and cumulatively generated millions of streams. JAZZIZ raves, “Mayo has developed his own lush, neo-soul sound that adroitly showcases his clear tenor, which glides over luxuriant clouds of his multi-tracked vocals.”  

 

African Rhythms Alumni Quartet: A Tribute to Randy Weston 

Friday, March 13

Broadway Subscriptions vs. Create Your Own Subscription: Which is the right package for you? 

There are so many ways to enjoy the upcoming season at Walton Arts Center, including series subscriptions, options to create your own personalized subscriptions and, of course, purchasing single tickets.

2020/21 Broadway Season Brings Six Can't-Miss Shows to NWA

Walton Arts Center is your home for the best of Broadway, and with the 2020/21 P&G Broadway Series, the hits just keep coming. This season features six fantastic shows that will help us explore and celebrate what it means to be our authentic selves. Audiences have the opportunity to see five shows make their Arkansas debut, and one show that is on a limited tour to select cities!

MyFair_A.jpg

My Fair Lady

Sept. 15-20, 2020

The season starts with a classic tale that takes on new meaning in light of the #metoo movement. When linguistics expert Henry Higgins hears the brash, cockney voice of a local flower girl, he makes a bet that he can turn her into a “proper lady.” But, he will realize that he has more to learn than she does in My Fair Lady.

Boasting classic songs like “I Could Have Danced All Night,” “The Rain in Spain,” “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly” and “On the Street Where You Live,” audiences will get to experience the tumultuous story of Eliza Doolittle and Henry Higgins like never before.

MeanGirls_H.jpg

Mean Girls

Nov. 3-8, 2020

Mean Girls comes next, and this Arkansas premiere is straight from Broadway and totally fetch. Cady Heron grew up with lions and tigers on an African Savanna, but nothing could prepare her for her next adventure - American high school. With the help of her new friends, Cady tries to climb the social food chain in an attempt to dethrone Regina George. But, she soon learns that you can’t cross the queen bee without getting stung.

From creative geniuses like director Casey Nicholaw (Aladdin, The Book of Mormon), composer Jeff Richmond (“30 Rock,” “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde) and book writer Tina Fey (“30 Rock,” Bossypants), this show is a must-see!

Come From Away

May 11-16, 2021

After the tragic events of 9/11, the U.S. airways were closed and planes were grounded. The Arkansas premiere of Come From Away takes audiences to the heart of the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small Newfoundland town that welcomed them.

Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships as passengers and townspeople alike were coping in the days after 9/11. During one of the worst times, this tells the uplifting story about how people came together and cared for each other.
