Hundred Days is an uncensored, exhilarating and heartrending true story about embracing uncertainty, taking a leap and loving as if you only had 100 days to live. With magnetic chemistry and anthemic folk-punk music, creators and stars Abigail and Shaun Bengson explore a fundamental question: how do we make the most of the time that we have?

Hundred Days has a book by the Bengsons and Sarah Gancher and music and lyrics by the Bengsons. The show is directed by Anne Kauffman with movement direction by Sonya Tayeh. A two-time Critics’ Pick, The New York Times calls Hundred Days “A luminous musical memoir.”

Presented in the Straz Center’s intimate Jaeb Theater, Hundred Days is the final show on 2018-2019 Bank of America Broadway at The Straz season and is sponsored in part by the Tampa Bay Times.

Actor, playwright, filmmaker and comedian Tyler Perry has announced the final stage tour for his beloved character “Madea” with Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Farewell Play Tour.

Perry’s inspirational journey from the hard streets of New Orleans to the heights of Hollywood’s A-list is the stuff of American legend. Born into poverty and raised in a household scarred by abuse, Perry fought from a young age to find the strength, faith and perseverance that would later form the foundations of his much-acclaimed plays, films, books and shows. Perry practices what he preaches, and what he preaches has endeared him to millions of fans drawn by that unique blend of spiritual hope and down-home humor that continues to shape his inspiring life story and extraordinary body of work.

Tickets go on sale to the public Friday, Nov. 30, and are available online, by phone and in person at the Straz Center Ticket Sales Office beginning at 12 p.m. Regularly priced tickets are $48.75-$108.75.

This “winning adaptation” (The Hollywood Reporter) of the best-selling Disney-Hyperion novel by Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is “electrifying!” (Newsday). The Greek gods are real, and they’re ruining Percy Jackson’s life. As a son of Poseidon, Percy has newly discovered powers he can’t control, monsters on his trail, and is on an epic quest to find Zeus’s lightning bolt to prevent a war between the gods. Nominated for three Drama Desk Awards including Best Musical, The Lightning Thief is “mesmerizing” and proves “lightning can strike twice!” (TheaterMania).
