It is presented by Coast Radio and the Siuslaw News. T his April 13-15, C.R.O.W. will present Disney’s Tarzan - the exhilarating mainstage musical based on Disney’s epic animated musical adventure and Edgar Rice Burrough’s Tarzan of the Apes. Disney’s Tarzan features heart-pumping music by rock leg- end Phil Collins and a book by Tony Award-win- ning playwright, David Henry Hwang. High-fl ying excitement and hits like the Academy Award winning “You’ll Be in My Heart” as well as “Son of Man” and “Two Worlds” make Tarzan an unforgettable theatrical experience. Th e Tarzan story is familiar to all generations, and many of our local Florence residents may have grown up reading the books and watching the many huge, Blockbuster-type movies. Washed up on the shores of West Africa, an infant boy is taken in and raised by gorillas who name him Tarzan. Apart from striving for acceptance from his ape father, Tarzan’s life is mostly monkey business until a human expedition treks into his tribe’s terri- tory and he encounters creatures like himself for the fi rst time. Tarzan struggles to navigate a jungle, thick with emotion as he discovers his animal upbringing clashing with his human instincts. C.R.O.W. is already swinging on the vines of re- hearsals, planning a wonderful, completely immer- sive jungle set and lighting plan which takes advantage of the Florence Event’s Center new system, and also planning some ape-sized highlights for audi- ences. One particularly spine-tingling element will be the live performances by Revelers Aerial Works on 20 foot silks, suspended over the stage. Th e show’s title role will be played by multi-faceted high-school senior, Cameron Utz, with the lovely and talented Alizabeth Norton opposite him as Jane. Tarzan’s ape mother, Kala, will be portrayed by Halle Anderson, and giant silverback, Kerchak, will be brought to life by Jacob Ternyik. William Owens will be singing jazz and “Trashin’ the Camp” as an adorable sidekick, Terk. Th e large cast of Tarzan consists of approximately 65 children and young adults, ranging in age from 4 years old through early 20’s. C.R.O.W. will present the show with Broadway-cal- iber technical design, staging, music, and choreog- raphy, creating a well-rounded presentation that will make audiences want to cheer and beat their chests with happiness! Tarzan will be in all hearts, and promises to be “swingin’ fun” for the whole family. To reserve your tickets, please visit eventcenter.org and buy online, or call (541) 997-1994.

It means a lot to most of us. And to Florence’s favorite jazz vocal ensemble, music drives them to per- form as it has for a decade and a half. In fact, they hold music in such high regard that the FloTones named their next benefi t concert “Music Matters.” Th eir last benefi t before Christmas raised over $1,300 for Flor- ence’s Boys and Girls Club. Th e benefi ciary of “Music Matters” will be the Siuslaw Schools music programs. “Music Matters” will occupy the Florence Events Center’s fl at fl oor for 2 performances on Saturday and Sunday, May 26 and 27. And in a break from previ- ous FloTones performances, the ‘Tones will share the stage with four talented school-kid singers – “Th e C.R.O.W.Kids” and the very popular “Miles To Go” jazz quintet. Songs on the FloTones playlist include the fan-favorite “Begin the Beguine” and new tunes including “Misty” and “For All We Know”. Th e “C.R.O.W Kids” perfor- mance will round out the fi rst half of the show. Aft er intermission, “Miles To Go” will hold the stage joined by popular vocalist Maree Beers with a guest appear- ance by teen singing sensation Nyah Vollmer. Tickets will be available soon at $20 and $10 for students. Music matters to the FloTones, the C.R.O.W Kids, Miles To Go and our Siuslaw Schools music pro- grams. We hope it also matters to you and you will put this benefi t concert on your calendar.
