* BEST OF GASLIGHT THEATERBEST OF GASLIGHT THEATER

Time: 7:00 pm

Join the popular faces of The Gaslight Theatre as they share their favorite impressions and songs from the last four decades of entertaining Tucson! The cast includes: Joe Cooper, Mike Yarema, Todd Thompson, Jake Chapman, Heather Stricker, Janee Page, and Erin Thompson, who are all current and long-time members of The Gaslight Theatre's cast of actors. Impressions will include Sony and Cher, Madonna, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash & June Carter, Johnny Carson, and of course some numbers from The Gaslight Theatre's melodrama shows! Come laugh with these Gaslight regulars as they perform this show for the first time in Green Valley! The Gaslight Theater has been a popular destination for residents of southern Arizona for decades. It all started back in 1977 when a young 24-year-old U of A student named Tony Terry Jr. grabbed a few great friends from the drama department and headed to Skagway, Alaska. They founded the “Mighty Moose Melodrama Theatre” and the one and only production was called “Gold Fever! or Danger at Bonanza Creek!” After a long, cold, but fun summer, the troupe said “The heck with this! Let’s head back to the desert!” Shortly after their return to Tucson and with the help of Tony’s brother Tom, they opened The Gaslight Theatre in an old red barn at Trail Dust Town on Tanque Verde Road. They eventually settled in the old Jerry Lewis Theatre at the corner of Broadway and Kolb and also built Little Anthony’s Diner. They are still entertaining Tucson families and making memories for a whole new generation.

Time: 7:00 pm

Tickets: $20 in advance - $25 at door Theodore Roosevelt — “Teddy” to the world — was the face of America for three decades. Powerful, opinionated, intensely loyal, and devoted to the ideal of a just, honorable and muscular America, he stood for high ideals and never preached anything he didn’t practice. The 26th President of the United States has been energetically brought back to life by Derek Evans in performances from the White House Visitor Center to museums and theaters across the United States. Come and meet the man Owen Wister called “The most American American who ever lived!” Derek Evans is a professional actor and scholar who has spent a career of almost 40 years engaged in educational presentations for schools, colleges, museums and libraries. He has conservatory training at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and at New York University and holds bachelors and masters degrees from Northwestern University. He is a veteran of over 40 stage productions in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and San Francisco. Since 1995 he has concentrated on living history presentations on Theodore Roosevelt, which have now totaled over 500 performances. He maintains a professional reference library of over 400 volumes with emphasis on Theodore Roosevelt and 19th and early 20th Century American history. Feb 26, 2019 is the 100th anniversary of the Grand Canyon getting its designation as a National Park. Mr. Evans’ portrayal of Roosevelt will highlight TR’s visits to Arizona in addition to offering touching lessons in patriotism, self-reliance, family values, and the conservation of our great natural resources – and everything you ever wanted to know about the Teddy Bear!
