In its 42nd Season, the Jefferson Performing Arts Center presents the ultimate show-biz musical, 42nd Street, which celebrates Broadway, Times Square, and the people who make the magic of musical theatre. Aspiring chorus girl Peggy Sawyer comes to the big city from Allentown, Pennsylvania, and soon lands her first big job in the ensemble of a glitzy new Broadway show. But just before opening night, the leading lady breaks her ankle. Will Peggy be able to step in and become a star? 7:30 pm on April 9, 10, 17, and 18; 2 pm on April 11 and 19. $20–$75. jpas.org.
