Starbright Theatre Show Is Four Times the Fun!
On January 16, my wife and I, once again, went back in time to the 1960s to see the show “Four By Four” at the Starbright Theatre. The performance featured tributes to The Beatles, the Bee Gees, the Beach Boys and the Motown sound! Before the show, I met with Michael Chapman, producer/director of the program. I had to ask him permission to take photos and I asked him “I thought this show had something to do with the four “Bs.” I knew The Beatles, the Bee Gees and the Beach Boys, but I couldn’t figure out who was the fourth “B.”
Michael told me I would have to wait and see.
Not only can these four performers sing, but man can they dance! The show is choreographed by Paul Holmquist, and the four principals danced for an hour and 40 minutes – Continuously! You get tired just watching them.
The four performers were Tim Winski, Katch Gray, Taylor Campbell and Colin Cahill. These four are one of many companies that perform for Chapquist Productions, and they are involved in many of the “Four” productions.
“Four By Four” premiered at the Starbright Theater in 2015 and, along with our other productions, has appeared to sold-out performances in showrooms, theaters, stadiums and luxury cruise lines worldwide!
Another show from this production company is “Brava Broadway! – Celebrating the Great Ladies of Musical Theater,” which will have its world premiere at the Starbright Theater on February 20. Tickets for that show are on sale now at suncitysummerlin.com.
According to Michael, “We like to present our shows at the Starbright Theater so that local Las Vegas audiences get a chance to see our shows at an affordable ticket price. We rehearse all of our shows at rehearsal studios in Las Vegas and also in NYC.”
After watching the show, I figured out that the fourth “B” in the show is a tribute to Barry Gordy, the founder of Motown Records.

An Evening of Wine and Yoga at The Summit

The Summit Restaurant was transformed on January 23 as the dining room’s tables and chairs were replaced with smiles and yoga mats. The beautiful skyline of the city was the backdrop for the Health & Fitness Department’s newest class “An Evening of Wine and Yoga.” Twenty-five residents with yoga skills ranging from beginner to advanced practiced together. Many stayed for happy hour and laughter was had by all. It was a great way to relax and wind down after the workout. Stay tuned in February for the Health & Fitness Department's special four-class cardio schedule, which includes cardio kickboxing, step aerobics, Balletone and boot camp classes. For more information on the upcoming cardio schedule, see Page 46 of the February Link.
