 Valhalla, NY - Westchester Community College (WCC) presents the hilarious Three Redneck Tenors, a musical blue collar adventure with down home laughs and big city music, on Saturday, March 1 at 8:00 p.m. in the Academic Arts Theatre.
Audiences will laugh at the story line and marvel at the music featuring opera and Broadway stars Keith Buterbaugh, Matthew Lord, Steven Sanders, John Wilkerson, Alex Bumpas, and Dinny McGuire.
In the melodic wake of the three operatic tenors comes a new breed of tenors from more humble origins. The musical-comedy extravaganza features classically-trained veteran artists in a presentation part hilarity, part opera, and part hee-haw. Written by opera veteran Matthew Lord with music arranged by award-winning composer Craig Bohmler, the story of Three Redneck Tenors places these three hopeful “would-be’s, wanna-be’s” at New York City’s famous Carnegie Hall. Billy Bob, Billy Joe, and Billy Billee mix NASCAR with La Boheme, lite beer with Carmen, and even kick up a little dust with Madame Butterfly. You’ll travel with our three classical cousins from their modest beginnings in Paris, Texas all the way to their triumphant debut at Carnegie Hall.
Tickets are $20 (general admission), $17 (students/seniors) and $12 (children under 13). For tickets or information, visit the web site at sunywcc.edu or call 914-606-6262.
