Outlaw cowboy Orville Peck croons about love and loss from the badlands of North America. The resulting sound is entirely his own - taking the listener down dusty rose-colored desert highways; through a world where worn out gamblers, road-dogs, and lovesick hustlers drift in and out of his masked gaze. “Big Sky,” his first single, is a campfire lullaby of Orville’s past lovers.
Orville Peck’s music has been featured in publications like Nylon, i-D, Vice, The Needle Drop, and Office, as well as numerous Apple Music and Spotify playlists.

Piper Pride Productions is set to bring you an exhilarating performance of Disney’s Newsies!
Inspired by true events and based on the 1992 film of the same name, Newsies is an exciting musical adaptation of the Newsboys’ Strike of 1899. The charismatic Jack Kelly leads a band of working kids in New York City in an epic fight for fair work conditions after the publishing big wigs raise the distribution prices at the expense of the Newsies.
With high energy dance numbers, heart wrenching plot twists, and a timeless message about standing up for what’s right, this is definitely a show you won’t want to miss!
