HIGHLIGHT

Mark Gibson, Director of Orchestral Studies at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, leads singers and dancers in a romantic extravaganza celebrating Valentine’s Day with the American musical. Building on plots of rivalry and conflict that eventually resolve in happy endings for all, musical theatre is a beautiful way to celebrate “love” on Valentine’s Day!
