So don't miss your chance to see Damn Yankees at the Marriott Theatre this spring!
"I'm continually drawn to the underdog stories," said director James Vasquez. "This show is about hopes and dreams, and the lengths we'll go to achieve what we want - but ultimately, it's a story about love winning. A reminder that a strong team can be nine on a field, or just one special person by your side."
