Journey through the life and times of the “Queen of Disco” during “Summer: The Donna Summer Musical,” featuring powerful vocals and dazzling dance club tunes, Aug. 14-16 at the Dogwood Dell amphitheater.
The production incorporates several hit songs, including “MacArthur Park,” “Bad Girls” and “Last Dance,” appealing to multiple generations of audiences and spanning three different eras of the icon’s music legacy.
“Come and learn the life story of Donna Summer. You’re going to walk out with more appreciation than you came with,” says Cameron Booth, recreation services supervisor for Richmond’s Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities department. “It’s going to feel like a concert but come across as a musical theater production.”
Performances start at 8 p.m., and admission is free as part of the 69th Dogwood Dell Festival of Arts.
