Blast II: Music in Xtreme to premier in Kentucky
'Blast II: Music in Xtreme' will have its world premiere weekend on Thursday, June 22, at the RiverPark Center in Owensboro - Kentucky, prior to an extensive five-month tour of Japan. The original Blast! performed throughout the world, including the US and UK, both on Broadway and in London.
Blast!, which won a special Best Musical Tony Award, performed for three successive summers in Japan, 2003, 2004 and 2005, to consistently sold-out houses. As a result of its enormous popularity, this brand new production, makes history by being the first Broadway show ever, to be totally financed by a Japanese company and be built and premiered in the US prior to the Tokyo opening.
The new Japanese financed musical will leave RiverPark Center and shoot across the globe to Japan for a 5-month non-stop mega-musical tour of Tokyo, Osaka, Matsumoto, Fukuoka, Sendai, Sapporo, Niigata, Matsuyama and Hiroshima. Blast II is expected to return to North America for a 2- year tour.
Tickets can be purchased at the RiverPark Center box office. Special $20 ticket (half the regular price) is available for drum corps fans who call the Riverpark Center Box Office (270.687.2787) or e-mail info@riverparkcenter.org and give the code 'drum corps'. Group seating reservations are also available.
