THE CHER SHOW is 35 smash hits, six decades of stardom, two rock-star husbands, a Grammy®, an Oscar®, an Emmy® and enough Tony Award®-winning Bob Mackie gowns to cause a sequin shortage in New York City, all in one unabashedly fabulous new musical that will have you dancing in the aisles! THE CHER SHOW is a new Broadway musical production created to celebrate the story of Cher’s life featuring fabulous Bob Mackie costumes, energetic performances, and 35 of her greatest hits.

Ryan Hamilton
2024-02-03 19:30 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
Ryan’s one-hour Netflix stand-up special, “Happy Face,” has been reviewed as “the special you can’t watch enough times.” This has been followed by a wealth of television appearances and a nonstop headlining tour. Armed with the unique perspective of growing up in rural Idaho to become a favorite in the New York stand-up comedy scene, he’s one-of-a-kind. He’s been named one of Rolling Stone’s Five Comics to Watch; and his recent appearances include “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” and “Conan,” as well as opening spots for Jerry Seinfeld and Jim Gaffigan.
The New York Times says Ryan is “One of the most reliably funny regulars at the Comedy Cellar, an observational comic who often riffs on the absurdity of his own wholesomeness.”

A Season for Nonviolence
2024-02-09 10:00 - 17:00 | The International Peace Museum, 10 N. Ludlow St., Dayton, OH, 45402
A Season for Nonviolence is a national 64-day educational, media, and grassroots campaign dedicated to demonstrating that non-violence is a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and our communities. The purpose of this event is to promote and spread the principles of nonviolence to create a more inclusive, understanding, and compassionate society, ultimately helping to bridge the social divide in communities across America.
In January 2024 , representatives from the King, Gandhi, Scott and Mandela families are set to visit the International Peace Museum for a special series of events. This juncture holds the potential for a transformative moment—one that embodies strength, introspection, and a call to action in the pursuit of love, nonviolence, and peace. The coming together of these influential families to inaugurate the 2024 Season of Nonviolence carries profound symbolism. It sends a resounding message to our nation that peace is indispensable for the well-being of all, and its significance can endure for generations to come.
