Get away from the sweltering weather with some on the stage performances.
The Tulsa PAC is a hotbed of the performing arts. Begin the month with the most popular and sought after big band of all time – the Glenn Miller Orchestra – on June 6. Then, stick around for World Stage Theatre’s rendition of Half Time, an incredible true story of ten determined, 60+ year-old dreamers who audition to dance at half time for a major basketball team, running June 6-8 and 13-15; as well as Celebrity Attractions’ Wicked, running through June 15, and Lysistrata, a bold re-imagining of Aristophanes’ infamous sexual satire, running June 19-22. Other Tulsa performances you can’t miss include Tulsa Youth Opera’s The Hobbit, June 7-8 at the University of Tulsa Lorton Performance Center, as well as Tulsa Symphony’s performance with Andrea Bocelli on June 15 at the BOK Center.
For classic performance fare in OKC, look no further than the Paseo Indoor Theatre for Oklahoma Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor – Shakespeare’s beloved situational comedy – from June 5-15. Then, head to the Civic Center Music Hall for Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma’s Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, June 17-21, alongside Painted Sky Opera’s Overture: An Evening of Operatic Gems, June 27-29. Fans of comedy and interactive experiences can pivot to Norman’s Riverwind Casino on June 6 for Jay Leno, as well as the Skirvin Hilton Hotel for the Dinner Detective Comedy Mystery Dinner Show, June 7, 21 and 27.
