                    THE WORLD PREMIERE OF “ORDINARY AMERICANS”

                      NOW ON STAGE AT THE BILTMORE GABLE STAGE

          In the early 1950's Gertrude Berg and Phillip Loeb, the pioneering stars of television’s groundbreaking sitcom, The Goldberg’s, heroically struggle to save their show, their careers, and their friendship in the face of McCarthyism, anti-Semitism, and the political climate of the country.


         Based on actual events, Ordinary Americans reveals the double-edged sword between speaking out and staying silent.  From 1899 to 1966 Berg was a seminal figure in American popular culture in the first half of the twentieth century and one of the most significant artists in television history, yet she is largely forgotten today.


          She was known to millions around the country as Molly Goldberg, a character she created for her 1929 radio show. She was also the show’s producer, and the first recipient of an Emmy Award for Lead Comedy Actress. 


          The cast consists of David Kwiat, Elizabeth Dimon, and Rob Donohoe, under the direction of Joseph Adler. Tickets are going fast for this amazing world show, now on stage through February 16, 2020, in collaboration with Palm Beach Dramaworks, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Evenings at 7 and 8 p.m. , Matinees 2 p.m. Due to exceptional demand, matinees have been added February 8 and 15th.

                                       COMING TO PARKER PLAYHOUSE

                                          A TRIBUTE TO JOHNNY CASH
                                                 “THE MAN IN BLACK

          The Man In Black: A Tribute To Johnny Cash is an accurate and energetic recreation of an American music icon. The show brings this legend back to life on stage for the fans of today and the next generation.


         Born and raised in a working class suburb of St. Louis, Shawn Barker took a schoolboy love for singing in church with his family and turned it into a career: a-one-of-a-kind tribute to Johnny Cash.


         Universally considered the pre-eminent Johnny Cash tribute artist, Barker shares an uncanny resemblance to Cash. His strikingly similar looks, voice, and spot-on mannerisms revitalize the true character of Mr. Cash himself, and have led Barker to an immensely successful career, performing his tribute to the original “Man In Black.” 


         Barker delivers Cash’s raw prowess and signature sound to the stage. Concert fans will see unforgettable performances of “Walk the Line,” “Ring of Fire,” “Hurt,” and many others. Relax and enjoy the show on February 17, 2020 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $23 to $63 and up at Ticketmaster or the theatre's box office, located at 707 N.E. 8th Street, Fort Lauderdale.
