Broadway Theatre League

Comment on Facebook

Broadway Theatre League (BTL) is proud to present Broadway hits on national tour from New York City to you! The Broadway Theatre League was established in 1959 as part of a nationwide network of leagues committed to bringing Broadway shows to communities across the country, by way of touring companies. Of the original leagues organized around the country, BTL is one of the few remaining leagues, notable for its success and a strong relationship with producers and booking agencies across the country. A not-for-profit organization, BTL has demonstrated its commitment to the community through numerous charitable donations, and has become a key cultural and economic factor in northern Indiana and southern Michigan. The Broadway Theatre League is dedicated to helping preserve South Bend's cultural and historical heritage while providing future generations with first-rate entertainment. As the area's premiere promoter of hit Broadway shows on national tour, BTL salutes its subscribers, patrons, corporate sponsors and advertisers for their interest and support, which has made this achievement possible. Eliminate the hassle and expense of travel, traffic and major-city box office prices. Enjoy top theatrical productions right here in our own exceptional performance venues. MISSION To present the finest performing arts available to all segments of the community and provide educational opportunities within the disciplines of the performing arts. OUTREACH Broadway Theatre League is committed to providing educational opportunities for local children and young adults interested in a career in the performing arts. We are also firm believers in the importance of the performing arts in the lives of all young people. We gladly accept donations to supplement the cost of tickets so that every child can experience the joy of live theatre.

      At some point, it was unavoidable for audience members at “Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show” to dive into their collective memories and start making comparisons.
      
      Did Tony Basile look like Dean Martin? Did Dezmond Meeks move like Sammy Davis Jr.? How about Sandy Hackett? Did the jokes flow out of his mouth like water? And, finally, there’s David DeCosta as Frank Sinatra — the Chairman of the Board. Collapse

      ‘‘Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show” has baby boomer written all over it.
      
      The show comes to the Morris Performing Arts Center for three performances on Friday and Saturday, presented by Broadway Theatre League.
      
      Hackett is the son of comedian and Rat Pack contemporary Buddy Hackett. He says people who grew up in the postwar era heard Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. and Joey Bishop on the radio and saw them on stage, television and in films such as the original “Oceans 11.” Collapse

      I went and enjoyed the music but there was too much dead time, this show was for the older crowd. More than half of the audience left during the intermission. How sad!
