Kristen was thrilled to perform selections from Keith Thompson and Buddy Sheffield's new musical IDAHO! on the Reynolds Hall stage at the Smith Center for the Chairman's Celebration. 

More about IDAHO!:
This isn’t your grandmother’s prairie musical. In fact, it’s funny, irreverent and fresh. Born out of wedlock from the golden age of American musicals, IDAHO! The Comedy Musical is a great big tater sack of fun, whether you love musicals or absolutely hate them.

What’s it about? Three couples on the frontier and the comedy that ensues. This brand new show is still in development and it has everything you look for in a blockbuster musical. It has laughs, it has songs, it has romance and yes, it has potatoes. This musical comedy will leave you in stitches and political correctness flapping in the breeze.

The Smith Center is excited to give our audiences a chance to see a new production while it is in development and before it goes to Broadway. No fancy scenery or special effects, just a great script and music delivered by extraordinary performers. Consider this your opportunity to peek behind the curtain and see how Broadway shows are developed, and experience the creative process in action.

Written by Buddy Sheffield with music by Buddy Sheffield and Keith Thompson, IDAHO! The Comedy Musical will be produced by The Smith Center.

After working under his direction in the Las Vegas production of Phantom of the Opera, Kristen is thrilled to reunite with Broadway legend Hal Prince in his evening in word and song at The Smith Center in Las Vegas on Thursday, May 14.

No individual has played a more pivotal a role in shaping Broadway than director/producer Hal Prince. With a record-setting 21 Tony Awards and over 50 musicals, plays, and operas to his credit, Prince’s lengthy resume includes many of the most exceptional musicals of the past six decades including West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, Cabaret, Evita, and Phantom of the Opera. During this moderated interview, Prince reflects on his legendary career complemented by live performances of his works sung by soloists interlaced throughout. The program concludes with an interactive Q&A session with the audience.
