The City Center Encores! series is one-week-only revivals of really awesome musicals. 1985's Big River, which is the Huckleberry Finn musical, is up in February for 7 performances only. City Center has a LOT of season subscribers who get first access to tickets...but there are still some left if you grab them quickly. Nicholas Barasch will play Huck after redefining "adorable" in 2016's She Loves Me. Kyle Scatliffe has been busy Harpo'ing it up in The Color Purple and will now play Big Jim. This is guaranteed to be a magical night at the theater. The songs from this show are sublime and will please country and gospel fans to no end. This is going to be a big one, folks!
