Music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. "When the world grows dark, let your voice carry the light." As the world begins to change, one woman brings something the von Trapp family hasn't known in a long time—joy. When Maria steps into their lives, she brings laughter, music, and a renewed sense of connection—just as the world outside their home begins to shift in dangerous ways. In a time of rising fear and uncertainty, their bond becomes an anchor—and their courage, a quiet form of resistance. The Sound of Music is a timeless story of love, family, and standing up for what truly matters, brought to life with one of the most beloved scores in musical theatre history.

Music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. "When the world grows dark, let your voice carry the light." As the world begins to change, one woman brings something the von Trapp family hasn't known in a long time—joy. When Maria steps into their lives, she brings laughter, music, and a renewed sense of connection—just as the world outside their home begins to shift in dangerous ways. In a time of rising fear and uncertainty, their bond becomes an anchor—and their courage, a quiet form of resistance. The Sound of Music is a timeless story of love, family, and standing up for what truly matters, brought to life with one of the most beloved scores in musical theatre history.

Music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. "When the world grows dark, let your voice carry the light." As the world begins to change, one woman brings something the von Trapp family hasn't known in a long time—joy. When Maria steps into their lives, she brings laughter, music, and a renewed sense of connection—just as the world outside their home begins to shift in dangerous ways. In a time of rising fear and uncertainty, their bond becomes an anchor—and their courage, a quiet form of resistance. The Sound of Music is a timeless story of love, family, and standing up for what truly matters, brought to life with one of the most beloved scores in musical theatre history.

The Athens Theatre invites you to be "In the Room Where It Happens," a Hamilton-inspired spring fundraiser where Broadway talent meets the Athens stage for one unforgettable night.  Headlining the evening are four stars from the Broadway phenomenon Hamilton. Miguel Cervantes, who portrayed Alexander Hamilton in both the Chicago production from September 2016 until the production closed in January 2020, and on Broadway from 2020 to 2024, brings the intensity and passion that made his performance one of the most celebrated interpretations of the role. Cervantes previously appeared on Broadway in American Idiot and If/Then, and has been seen on television in Madam Secretary, Person of Interest, and The Blacklist. Joining him is Morgan Anita Wood, who made her Broadway debut as Eliza in Hamilton after nearly eight years with the production. She also performed in the touring company that starred Lin-Manuel Miranda in Puerto Rico and has appeared in productions such as Kinky Boots at the Hollywood Bowl and Loving and Loving at Actors Theatre of Louisville. Audiences may also recognize her from the recent season of Tim Robinson's The Chair Company on HBO Max. Also appearing is Tamar Greene, Broadway's longest-running George Washington in Hamilton. Known for his rich, powerful vocals, Greene has performed leading roles on Broadway, national tours, and regional stages across the country, and recently starred as Coalhouse Walker Jr. in Ragtime at Stages St. Louis. Rounding out the guest artists is Ta-Tynisa Wilson, a Hamilton Schuyler Sister standby who has also appeared in productions including Dreamgirls, The Color Purple, and The Bodyguard, and was recognized nationally as a Top 24 contestant on Season 10 of American Idol. These Broadway performers will share the stage with members of the Athens Theatre family in a thrilling concert inspired by Hamilton and the music and storytelling that made it a global sensation. This special evening will help support the Athens Theatre Youth Academy, the ongoing preservation and care of our historic 104-year-old theatre, and help offset recent reductions in arts funding at the state and other levels. Black tie suggested (formal evening wear encouraged—tuxedos, suits, and elegant dresses). Festivities begin at 7 PM and The show is at 8 PM. Premium seat holders may also add an optional $100 VIP package, which includes access to the VIP tent with passed hors d'oeuvres, dessert, and an open bar. History is happening in DeLand—and for one extraordinary night, you can be In the Room Where it Happens!

Join artist Taylor Robenalt for an engaging conversation exploring the narratives, symbolism, and material processes behind her intricate porcelain sculptures. Drawing from the long human tradition of storytelling, Robenalt creates works that intertwine figures, flora, and fauna to reflect on personal experience, animal behavior, and humanity's relationship with the natural world. Through layered symbolism and carefully constructed forms, her work bridges ceramics and sculpture, expanding how we understand both disciplines while inviting viewers into stories of transformation and connection. Working primarily in porcelain, Robenalt embraces the material's delicate, skin-like qualities to heighten the emotional resonance of her imagery, where animals, flowers, and human forms become metaphors for loyalty, freedom, renewal, and the cyclical nature of life. A professor at Ringling College of Art and Design, Robenalt creates work that is visually accessible yet deeply reflective, encouraging intuitive engagement and personal interpretation. This artist talk offers insight into her creative process and explores how storytelling through clay can connect individual experience to broader contemporary conversations about identity, change, and shared human experience. Please note: Our galleries will not open early for this event due to a special event beforehand. Admission: Free for Museum Members  |  $10 for Future Members
