Scranton Cultural Center at the Masonic Temple presents String Fling: All Acoustic Evening with Miz and Good Company!
Nashville based Americana singer/songwriter Mike Miz is back in town FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY with his first NEPA show since the fall. Only this time, we’ll be hearing something a little different. Along with Michael Borowski on piano and Stephen Kurtz on bass, he’ll be performing an acoustic set to include his newest original singles like High for Now and Virginia, which was featured in Rolling Stone Magazine. Both releases are songs produced since signing with Electric 3 Records.
The rest of the lineup includes star-studded locals such as Bret Alexander (The Badlees) joined by friends Tim & Rob Husty and AJ Jump with special guest, Ellie Rose!
Roy Williams (Big Leaf, Southside Five, Bog Swing Band, The Fiddle Tamers, Human Hands) will be accompanied by Shawn Caden as they debut their new duo Big Leaf with music made for guitar and mandolin. Opening the show is one of the region’s favorite singer/songwriters and storytellers, Dave Brown (Dishonest Fiddlers) who recently moved to the Harrisburg area.
Join us for this intimate “unplugged” version of some of our area’s favorite rockers as they perform mixed sets of original music, folklore and more!

Prepare to laugh until you cry when four of the world’s most masterful improv artists take you on the high wire act of comedic acrobatics. The rapid-fire wit and non-stop jokes will have your sides splitting and begging for mercy…and also begging for more. Scranton will welcome Ryan Stiles and Greg Proops, both seen on ABC’s “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” as well as Jeff B. Davis and Joel Murray. If you are a “Whose Line?” fan, get ready for the same relentless laughter that you grew to love, but without the commercial breaks! If you are new to improv comedy, then you are in for a show unlike anything you have ever seen before. This particular style of improvisational comedy is rife with countless gags, one-liners, hilarious games and even songs so good you will hardly believe they were made up on the spot. The teamwork and trust that it takes to perform a show with no script is apparent, but when the best of the best do it, they do it effortlessly. Watch them build entire scenes, characters, and storylines right before your eyes as they take you on a white-knuckle ride through endless chuckles. Ryan Stiles’ television credits include roles on “The Drew Carey Show” and “Two and a Half Men,” while Greg Proops has lent his vocal talents to animated characters in Star Wars: Episode 1,The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Brother Bear. However, both got their start as comedians and are excited to return to their funny-bone-tickling roots. Jeff B. Davis is also a highly experienced improv comedian and starred in the cult classic cartoon series, “Harmon quest.” He has also starred in “Drew Carey’s Green Screen Show” and “Improv-a-Ganza,” while gaining fame for his spot-on impressions of Christoper Walken, Keanu Reeves, and Jeff Goldblum. Joel Murray is the youngest of the nine Murray brothers, including Bill Murray, but has become a star in his own right. Though he has over 250 sitcom appearances, he is best known for his recurring roles like Freddy Rumsen on “Mad Men” and Eddie Jackson on “Shameless.” He has also appeared in One Crazy Summer, The Artist, Scrooged, and Bobcat Goldthwait’s God Bless America..

“This is, to come out with it immediately, the most marvellous show.” — Jeremy Kingston, The Times
“’Iconic’ is an overused word these days, but when you’re talking about The Wizard of Oz, there’s really no other—whether you mean the 1939 film with Judy Garland, L. Frank Baum’s book (it came first, you know), or a stage version… this Oz, brimming with color, seduces and delights.” – Collin Kelley, Atlanta In Town”Since this classic movie first delighted children and grownups back in 1939, L. Frank Baum’s glorious fantasy has been a continual favorite. Whether on film, in print or live on stage, as it is at Chicago Shakespeare Theater, this fanciful story, with its inspiring lesson about friendship, is one of the most beloved in children’s literature… Did Yip Harburg and Harold Arlen have any idea of the enduring musical magic they’d created when they composed all those wonderful, infectious songs?” – Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review
