Capitol Theatre to Feature Holiday Favorites
It’s great to see Wheeling’s venerable, and newly restored, Capitol Theatre being utilized for a variety of entertaining programs, with returning favorites as well as new offerings. Of course, the Wheeling Symphony was set to perform its second Masterworks concert at the Capitol Friday, Nov. 6. The new Broadway at the Capitol Series opens at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, with a touring production performance of the musical, “Stomp.” As noted in a feature article in Friday’s TGIF section, the cast of “Stomp” includes Elec Simon, a fomer Smithfield and Steubenville resident and 1999 graduate of Buckeye Local High School. A Thanksgiving Eve concert featuring popular area bands is planned at the Capitol Wednesday evening, Nov. 25. The holiday season brings a return of seasonal traditions to the Capitol, along with additions that are sure to please. In cooperation with the Independent Theatre Collective of Wheeling, the holiday classic play, “A Christmas Carol,” will be performed on the Capitol stage at 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 11. As noted elsewhere in today’s Arts & Living section, Oglebay Institute and the Wheeling Symphony are teaming up to present a production of the holiday favorite ballet, “The Nutcracker,” at 8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 18, and 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 19. Fans of Wheeling musician B.E. Taylor will be pleased to learn that the “B.E. Taylor Christmas Show” is returning to the Capitol for two shows at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 22-23.
