Swing into an evening of style, swagger, and timeless charm with Feeling Good, a high-energy celebration of modern crooners. From the timeless elegance of Sinatra and the smooth sophistication of Michael Bublé to the sparkle of Bette Midler and Lady Gaga, this show delivers silky vocals, irresistible rhythms, and captivating personality. Savor swingin’ favorites like “Come Fly With Me” and “It Had to Be You,” fresh hits like “Home” and “Moondance,” and delightfully cheeky numbers such as “Stuff Like That There” and “Me and Mrs. Jones.” Equal parts class and sass, Feeling Good will leave you – well – feeling good.
From Billy Joel to Alicia Keys, from Ray Charles to Freddie Mercury, Three Pianos celebrates the piano legends who refused to play by the rules. These aren’t your cookie-cutter rock stars: they’re the rebels, romantics, and risk-takers who turned 88 keys into pure magic. Enjoy timeless favorites like “Crocodile Rock,” “Just the Way You Are,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “I’m Still Standing,” and “Beautiful.” From the soulful sway of Fats Domino to the anthemic joy of Elton John, this high-energy musical revue proves that when you follow your own tune, the music never stops.

Hadestown: Teen Edition reimagines Anaïs Mitchell’s Tony Award–winning musical for young performers, telling the intertwining myths of Orpheus and Eurydice and Hades and Persephone. Set in a steampunk underworld, the story explores industry vs. nature, doubt vs. faith, and fear vs. love, all driven by the show’s signature blend of American folk and New Orleans jazz. Guided by Hermes, audiences follow Orpheus’ journey to rescue Eurydice from the depths below in a powerful, hopeful tale about love, resilience, and the courage to believe in a better world.
Richey Suncoast Theatre is proud to present this authentic Bob Dylan experience, featuring Texas-based veteran musician Drew Gabbert, for a one-night-only performance on Saturday, January 24, 2026, at 7:00 PM.
Gabbert offers up a mysterious ability to embody the many voices of Dylan with accuracy and reverence—as if singing through a hall of mirrors. Close your eyes and you’ll be thoughtfully carried through the young man in old man’s clothes, drifting past the country croon, and held firmly by the elder statesman. These eras with their ancient muses are captured by Gabbert fluently.
By deliberately eschewing present-day technology and electronics, the musical presentation remains intact and precise. Visually, the performance is striking; musically, the performance is unmatched. This is a must-see for any Dylan fan looking for a pure, authentic concert experience.
