“On the Town” lit up Shenandoah University’s Ohrstrom-Bryant Theatre with color, rhythm, and the timeless charm of classic American musical theatre. Running from October 8–12, 2025, this production invited audiences into 1940s New York City, a whirlwind of sailors, dreamers, and romance all brought to life by Shenandoah Conservatory’s exceptionally talented cast and crew.
