Broadway Utica Presents 'Hadestown'- Win Tickets Now To The Show

Broadway Utica is bringing the critically acclaimed musical "Hadestown" to the Stanley Theatre this fall. We want you to win tickets from Lite 98.7.

"Hadestown" will have performances scheduled for October 8th and October 9th. Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best New Musical, and the 2020 Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album, Hadestown combines modern folk music with New Orleans jazz to retell the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice.

Following two intertwining love stories — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — Hadestown invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors, dancers, and singers, Hadestown delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience."

Tickets can be purchased at the Stanley box office or online at BroadwayUtica.org.

Want to win tickets to the show? You'll need to play our daily scavenger hunt Monday September 23rd through Friday September 27th.

Once you find them, you'll find a card on it with your "Golden Ticket" telling you that YOU are the winner of the daily prize. We will post photos on our Lite 98.7 Facebook page for you to see where it may be.

Good luck and happy hunting from Broadway Utica, and Lite 98.7.

14 Spectacular Places to See A Concert in Upstate New York

These are some of the most glamourous and astoundingly beautiful theaters in all of Upstate New York. From the very modern (the Frank Gehry designed concert hall at Bard College) to the very, very old (several from 150+ years ago), this is a collection of great places to see a concert in Upstate New York. Note that this gallery includes the original "String of Pearls." These are gorgeous vaudeville and silent movie houses built in the early 1900s, and are still active today. They "string" along from Troy to Buffalo. Just awesome!

A Remarkable Look Inside 22 Of Upstate New York's Most Historic Churches!

There are just way too many beautiful churches in Upstate New York to even begin a comprehensive list of them all. So this gallery is a bit different. It is unique in that for each of the 22 historic places of worship we highlight, we also include a video tour of the interiors of the place (if available). If no video of the interior was possible, we inserted a video of the exterior, grounds, etc. So you can do your exploring from the comfort of your own laptop! You will enjoy seeing the splendor of these magnificent places in our gallery.

Here you will see majestic cathedrals, a Tibetan monastery, a church that ultimately found fame as a fort, a church that is world-renowned as a "temple to the art of Tiffany windows,: two important churches that were way stations along the Underground Railroad, plus the smallest church in the world!
