Riverside Theatre Works Concludes March Concert Series with Two Blockbuster Shows

Riverside Theatre Works in Hyde Park will conclude its March Concert Series with two crowd-pleasing shows, on March 22 and 29.

On Saturday, March 22, Riverside will present its annual reunion show. That’s Entertainment: A Night with Oscar and Tony will feature a host of talented performers, all of whom have trod the boards at RTW in the past or are currently wowing audiences in performances at the theatre and beyond. More than 30 performers from surrounding communities will grace the stage in a wide-ranging selection of musical numbers. The evening will be hosted by P.J. Terranova, who began his career at RTW 33 years ago with founding director Marietta Phinney. RTW was his "stepping stone" to Broadway and national and international theatrical tours. P.J.’s co-host is Borana Ramizi, and the show is written and directed by Marietta Phinney and Pauline E. Gilmartin.

Barana Ramizi of Canton will appear in the show.
