Riverside Beaver County School District to Present Musical Damn Yankees

The Riverside High School Theater will present the musical, DAMN YANKEES on  MARCH 30 through APRIL 2 in the high school auditorium.  

A cast and crew of over 75 students from the school district will participate in the production directed by Brent Rodgers.  This is the 60th Anniversary of Theater at Riverside, so we hope you can join us for this landmark show.

Damn Yankees the Broadway mega-hit and winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, hits it out of the park! The winning score by Adler and Ross and a devilish book by George Abbot have made this sporty musical comedy a true American classic.

Middle-aged baseball fanatic Joe Boyd, trades his soul to the Devil, also known as Mr. Applegate, for a chance to lead his favorite team to victory in the pennant race against the New York Yankees. As young baseball sensation, Joe Hardy, he transforms the hapless Washington Senators into a winning team, only to realize the true worth of the life that he’s left behind. Joe ultimately outsmarts Applegate, returns to his former self and shepherds the Senators to the World Series.

Damn Yankees is a home run hit, featuring all-American subject matter and an irreverent sense of humor. The perfect choice for our spring musical production, Damn Yankees is a wicked, romantic comedy, sure to please.
