SUMMARY:Vanities: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Vanities: The Musical chronicles the life-affirming journey of three vivacious Texas teens from cheerleaders to sorority sisters to housewives to liberated women and beyond. This musical captures a snapshot-sharp portrait of the lives\, loves\, disappointments\, and dreams of these young women growing up during the turbulent sixties and seventies and reconnecting in the late 1980s. With a tunefully evocative score by David Kirshenbaum (Summer of ’42) and Jack Heifner’s hilarious adaptation of his long-running Off-Broadway smash\, Vanities: The Musical is a funny and poignant look at three best friends who discover that\, through thirty years of rapidly changing times\, the one thing they can rely on is each other. \nhttps://surflight.org/ \ninfo@surflight.org \n609-492-9477

SUMMARY:Bobby Horton: Patriot Songs of the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Patriot Songs of the American Revolution\nBy Bobby Horton\nOur musical heritage plays an essential role in preserving the history\, culture\, and spirit of our nation’s early days. \nThrough music\, we hear not only of events but also the hopes\, dreams\, and disappointments of those who lived through them.\nThe music presented in this program was part of that journey. \nThese are the songs that fueled the colonists’ desire for freedom and unity. \nThey include stirring anthems meant to rally support for the independence movement\, celebratory tunes marking victories that lifted spirits\, \nhumorous songs poking fun at the enemy\, and lighter “pop” tunes beloved by the common people. Each of these songs tells a story of resilience\, hope\, and determination. \nSunday October 4\, 2026 at 3:00pm \nPrima Studio Theatre \nAll tickets $24 discounts available for active & retired military\, plus OCC Students\, faculty\, and staff. \nTickets go on sale Thursday July 9th at noon. \nwww.grunincenter.org \n732-255-0500 \nThis event is made possible through the generous support of the Ocean County Cultural & Heritage Commission.
