Wallace State Presenting Annual Broadway Night April 30

HANCEVILLE, Ala. — Wallace State Community College’s Fine and Performing Arts program will present its annual Broadway Night on Thursday, April 30 at 7 p.m., in the Burrow Center Recital Hall.

The student-led production showcases the talents of students from the college’s performing arts ensembles, with the students choosing the songs they will sing as well as choreographing each performance. 

“This event gives our students the opportunity to develop their artistic expression and get experiences in all aspect of production,” said Tahauny Cleghorn, Choreographer for Wallace State Fine and Performing Arts programs. “It’s been great to see them grow and become more confident in their abilities.”

Some of the songs selected for the Broadway Night performance include “Greased Lightning” from Grease, “Don’t Rain on My Parade” from Funny Girl, “Surface Pressure” from Encanto and “It Takes Two” from Into the Woods.

Broadway Night is the final performance of the Spring 2026 semester, but a summer performance is scheduled. “I Am a Pilgrim” will be performed July 23-25. The concert will feature the Wallace State Concert Choir and Wallace State Singers and traces the roots of gospel music. The show will go on tour to Scotland later this year. 

Auditions May 2

Two performing arts programs will be holding auditions next month. The Wallace State Singers and the Wallace State Pride Line dance team will hold auditions on Saturday, May 2. The Singers auditions will be held at 10 a.m., and the Pride Line dance team will hold auditions from 1 to 4 p.m. All auditions will be held in the Burrow Center for the Fine and Performing Arts.
