GREAT STORYTELLING, TERRIFIC PLAY
WONDERFUL CABARET, TOP ENTERTAINMENT —
ALL IN ONE SHOW

Jean Louisa Kelly (original Broadway cast of Into the Woods, and the movies Uncle BuckMr. Holland’s Opus, The Fantasticks, and Top Gun: Maverick) presents two encore performances of Anything Can Happen! after her sold-out New York concert debut earlier this year. Again accompanied by Grammy Award-winning musical director Paul Bogaev, Kelly takes the audience on a journey through the serendipitous story of her life in and out of show business, from small-town New England to Hollywood and Broadway. With songs from Gypsy, The Fantasticks, Next to Normal, and Company, Kelly’s story is uplifting, moving and fun.

“I really want to keep growing creatively,” Kelly comments. “In writing the show, it was fun to try to describe my journey using songs. I often think in musical theatre phrases — there is a song for every situation! My story is an unlikely one that I think is hopeful. You never know what’s going to happen, and sometimes it’s wonderful.”
