Carson Valley Community Theatre presents the "Sounds of Broadway" musical revue, today through Sunday in the Shannon Ballroom at Carson Valley Inn in Minden.
The show features songs from Broadway productions such as "Cats," "Porgy and Bess," "Chicago" and "Wicked," with a script written by CVCT member Norris Edson.
"He wrote about 20 minutes of dialogue that go with the first and second acts and tie the show together," said theater group member Margaret Edson. "A couple is reminiscing about all the Broadway shows they've seen. In the second act they play a trivia game with another couple about Broadway shows."
About 35 people appear in "Sounds of Broadway." Carson Valley resident Ann Delahay will sing "Memory" from "Cats" and Lisa Thomas will sing "Don't Rain on My Parade" from "Funny Girl."
The musical revue also features Carson Valley youth Melanie Bratsch and Melissa Marsh singing "Defying Gravity" from "Wicked." Mother/daughter duo Shawna and Shyla Pisciotta sing "Do Re Mi" from "The Sound of Music."
Linda Sandstrom is featured on piano and Dan Lancaster plays clarinet and saxophone.
