Ready to dive into Jacksonville's red-hot entertainment scene? Join host Amadeus as he unveils the most anticipated shows hitting Northeast Florida's premier venues.
The podcast kicks off with a comprehensive rundown of upcoming performances across Jacksonville's iconic venues. From Brit Floyd and Frankie Valli at the Florida Theater to Styx and Old Dominion at Daily's Place, music lovers of all genres will find something to mark on their calendars. The spotlight shines brightest on the St. Augustine Amphitheater's "I Want My 80's Tour" featuring Rick Springfield, John Waite, Wang Chung, and John Cafferty coming May 29th.
The heart of this episode features an engaging conversation with Wang Chung's Nick Feldman, who shares fascinating insights into the band's evolution as live performers. "I think we're like a fine wine," Feldman reflects, "I think we've hopefully matured well with age." He discusses the gratification of connecting with audiences spanning generations and even reveals his current musical obsession with genre-defying artist Lewis Cole – a recommendation worth checking out for anyone seeking fresh sounds.
Amadeus then shifts focus to Jacksonville's theatrical treasures with a spotlight on the Alhambra Theater & Dining, recently crowned the nation's best dinner theater by USA Today. Local actor Gary Webber discusses his role as Henry Higgins in "My Fair Lady" (running through June 22nd) and eloquently captures why theater remains such a meaningful creative outlet: "Some people play golf, some people hunt or fish. I do theater and it's a great release."
