Join us on Friday, December 12 for a special evening with Swing Band Reunion!
Enjoy a live, reinterpreted reading of the holiday classic “Twas The Night Before Christmas,” sprinkled with Big Band Christmas songs throughout. … and perhaps even a visit from Ol’ Saint Nick himself! Perfect for the whole family!
Swing Band Reunion was formed in 2000 when members of the 1956 Little Rock Central High School Swing Band reunited, and they have now grown into a 20-piece orchestra. Directed by Steve Travis and featuring vocalists Stephanie Smittle and Jeff Watson, Swing Band Reunion pays tribute to Big Bands, Blues favorites, and pop tunes of the 1960s-70s.
Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the show starts at 7:00 p.m.
