The Palace Theatre Announces Three New Shows

The Palace Theatre in Albany has announced three new shows – all with rock & roll roots and big hit Broadway musical connections. All three shows have also made recent tour stops in Nippertown, at either the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall or Proctors.

A concert by the Midtown Men (featuring four performers from the original cast of “Jersey Boys”), joins one-night-only performances of “Green Day’s American Idiot” and the rockabilly-flavored “Million Dollar Quartet” on the Palace’s upcoming 2013-2014 performance schedule.

Special Broadway Package tickets – which include tickets to all three newly-announced shows – are currently on sale for $97, $121, $145 & $214. To order the three-show package tickets, call the Palace Theatre box office at (518) 465-4663.
