April 2010 events
Route 66
A Springer Opera House Tour
Often called "America's Main Street", U.S. Route 66 is a retro-fantasyland of art deco motels, roadside attractions, Indian trading posts, novelty drive-ins and old-fashioned spit-and-polish service stations. This rambunctious new musical comedy leads the audience along the great "Mother Road" in a nostalgic celebration of music and whimsical highway fun.
