If you chose mostly A’s, you are “Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella”, classic and loved by everyone.

Cinderella when the Broadway tour comes to Eisenhower Auditorium February 20 and 21, 2018 at 7:30 p.m.
If you chose mostly B’s, you are the American favorite, “Dirty Dancing.” You are dynamic and fabulous, and nobody can put you in the corner. It may have taken some time, but you finally learned how to dance to your own rhythm—and no one else’s. You can watch Baby’s story come to life on the Eisenhower stage March 21 and 22, 2018 at 7:30 p.m.
If you chose mostly C’s, you are “Jersey Boys.” You’re upbeat and entertaining, and your friend group is always the life of the party. You and your pals might be a bit of a hot mess, but you’re still making it work and living your best lives. Learn all about the hidden drama behind Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons on April 17 and 18, 2018 at 7:30 p.m.
