DEFYING GRAVITY Celebrates Music of Stephen Schwartz at the Roxy in Clarksville, 6/29-7/7

For two weekends only, beginning June 29 at 8pm, the music of Grammy and Academy Award-winning composer Stephen Schwartz will be celebrated, cabaret-style, in DEFYING GRAVITY at the Roxy Regional Theatre.

This musical revue is being presented as part of the Roxy's "On The Terrazzo" Series, which features performances in the intimate setting of the theatre's lobby. A limited number of tables and chairs will be available, and seating is general admission.
