‘Bright Star’ Opens June 3 at Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts

Thingamajig Theatre Company’s ‘Broadway in the Mountains’ summer season begins on Friday, June 3, with the opening of “Bright Star”.

Directed by Andrew Barratt Lewis and starring Allie Tamburello, the story of “Bright Star” was inspired by a real event told in the song “The Ballad of the Iron Mountain Baby.” Written and composed by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, the story takes place in the mountains of North Carolina, bouncing between the years 1923 and 1945, as family secrets are exposed.

The emotion-filled melodies and lyrics of “Bright Star” weave a story of love, hope and redemption.

Bright Star will have seven performances in June on Friday and Saturday nights at 7pm. To purchase individual or season tickets, visit our website at pagosacenter.org.

If you have already purchased season tickets please be sure to secure your seats for the performance you plan to attend. Call the Box Office at 970-731-SHOW (7469) to reserve your seats.

Thingamajig’s Whatchamawhozit Kids Camp for 7 to 12-year-olds begins on July 5 and will run weekdays through July 15 from 9am to 2pm. ‘The Music Man KIDS’ production will be the focus of the camp with performances scheduled for July 16 and 17. The camp counselors are the professional actors who will be performing in our three summer musicals. Campers will learn the important skills of teamwork, collaboration, critical thinking and confidence while having a fun-filled and creative experience. Visit our website at pagosacenter.org to register your youngsters.
