7:00 PM – 10:00 PM

The Hideaway | 49 Broadway St, Asheville

Broadway Performances:

Britt Mack is a powerhouse performer and an original cast member of the Tony Award-winning Six: The Musical, where she played Anna of Cleves. Her unforgettable number, “Get Down,” became a fan favorite as she declared: “I’m the queen of the castle. Get down, you dirty rascal.”

Ben Cameron is your Broadway buddy! Ben is a Broadway veteran who appeared in the original Broadway casts of Footloose, Aida, and a little show called Wicked. If you listen to the second track of the Wicked cast album, you can hear Ben drop the pivotal plot line... "Glinda, is it true you were her friend?”
