Tickets still available for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat will be performed seven different dates in December at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis and we still have tickets to all seven shows! The show is based on the "coat of many colors" story of Joseph from the Hebrew Bible's Book of Genesis. The show was first presented as a 15-minute pop cantata at Colet Court School in London in 1968. After many transformations and expansions, and West End  and Broadway Productions, it was adapted as a straight to-video film, starring Donny Osmond and directed by David Mallet and Steven Pimlott, in 1999. The show has very little spoken dialogue, it is sung-through almost completely. It runs under two hours and is occasionally performed without intermission. Its family-friendly storyline, universal themes, and catchy music have made Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat one of the most dependably profitable titles in musical theatre. The shows run from December 10th-21st and Ticket King has tickets for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in the orchestra level still available. Check out our website or give us a call!

Parking at Ticket King

So whenever people come in to pick up their tickets they park in front of a meter. Sometimes people think it is okay to just run in here really quick and not put a quarter in the meter and then they run back out to their car and find a nice parking ticket. Well today, a girl came in to pick up her tickets and she didn't have a quarter. One of my coworkers Mandi looked in the register to get her one but there wasn't one in there. So she got one from her own purse. I just thought that was a really nice thing of her to do and sometimes it is nice to write about something different. What nice things have you done lately?

John Mellencamp
Looking for something to do tonight? John Mellencamp will be at the Orpheum Theatre at 6:45 p.m. in Minneapolis. John Mellencamp fell in love with music at an early age. He began gigging in local bars and fronting a soul band by the time he was 14. His professional music career began in earnest in 1976 when MCA released his first album Chestnut Street Incident. I thought I had no idea who John Mellencamp was until I did some research. Songs by Mellencamp that I know that are popular are Hurt So Good and Jack & Diane. Now Hurt So Good will be stuck in my head the rest of the day...nice. We still have tickets available starting @ $50/ticket. We also have a few tickets available for the show tomorrow night that are in the PIT and on the main floor so you can be super close to the rock legend himself.

Last nights Minnesota Timberwolves game

Minnesota
Last night my co-worker Mandi and I had the opportunity to go to the Timberwolves vs. Lakers game and we had a lot of fun! Along with watching the game, the energy and music there just made it so exciting! There was also this guy there that knocked over a bunch of ice cream cones that the wolves mascot was bringing to another row because he was upset he couldn't get one. I would say for me...that was the highlight of the game. Later on the t-wolves mascot came back to the guy with two cones and smashed them on his shirt. Super funny! He deserved it! Mandi and I enjoyed seeing Lamar Odom. So cool to see people you have seen on tv in person...its like...these people do exist! Well, we lost last night, but I think we all knew that was coming. The game was super fun and I am glad I had the opportunity to go!

Last Comic Standing Tickets

Last Comic Standing Tickets
The Last Comic Standing is an American reality talent show that features comedian contestants who compete against each other  for a development contract with the NBC network and a television special that will first air on Comedy Central and then later on the network Bravo. NBC talent scouts hold open casting calls at various places in the United States. The finalists then go on tour and perform live in 60 different cities in the United States. I read some of the reviews that others have written after they went to the show and many of them stated that their faces hurt so bad from laughing and tears were streaming down their faces from laughing so hard. I love watching comedians who are ACTUALLY funny. Scientific studies prove that laughter is actually a therapy. Research shows that during intense laughter the human body releases endorphins, which is the bodies natural pain killer. Humor is also known to reduce stress and increase the bodies natural tolerance to pain! So, treat yourself to the Last Comic Standing event because they are coming to Minnesota November 19th! The comedians will be performing live in Prior Lake at the Mystic Lake Grand Ballroom at 7 p.m. We only have a few tickets available but they are located in the center section so a perfect view of the comedians. Snatch up your tickets before they are all gone!

Mannheim Steamroller tickets

The musical group Mannheim Steamroller will be performing in Minneapolis at the Orpheum Theatre on Friday December 3rd and Saturday December 4th & we still have excellent seats available in the Pit! That is the front section at the Orpheum Theatre. The Mannheim Steamroller began as an alias for composer/record producer Chip Davis. You may be wondering "where did the name Mannheim Steamroller come from?" Well I was wondering the same thing! It actually comes from an 18th-century German musical technique, Mannheim rocket, an ascending arpeggio made popular by the Mannheim school of composition. Makes sense now right? Sure. The group started circa the 1970's but it was in the beginning of 1984 the Steamroller found its greatest fame. Davis released his first holiday album, Mannheim Steamroller Christmas, which featured modern contemporary interpretations of Yuletide favorites AND over five million copies were sold! The Mannheim Steamroller group have also had tracks with guest vocals by Johnny Mathis and Olivia-Newton-John. Don't they look like that are having a fun time in that picture? This truly is a don't miss show! Get your Mannheim Steamroller tickets while we still have them! They are flyin' out of here like hot cakes I tell ya! You don't want to miss this opportunity to get in the Christmas Spirit :)!
