SUMMARY:BusinessWest's 40 Under Forty
DESCRIPTION:When BusinessWest launched a program in 2007 to honor young professionals in Western Mass. — not only for their career achievements\, but for their service to the community — there was little concern that the initial flow of nominations might slow to a trickle years later. \nWe were right. In fact\, 40 Under Forty has become such a coveted honor in the region’s business community that the flow has turned into a flood\, with more than 180 unique nominations arriving this past year. They hail from a host of different industries\, from law to banking; from education to healthcare; from media to retail\, just to name a few. Many are advancing the work of long-established businesses\, while others\, with an entrepreneurial bent\, created their own opportunities instead of waiting for them to emerge. \n2019 40 Under Forty\nThursday\, June 20\, 2019\n5:30 p.m.-8:30 p.m.\nThe Log Cabin\n500 Easthampton Rd\, Holyoke\, MA 01040

SUMMARY:Berkshire Theatre Group presents Rock and Roll Man: The Alan Freed Story
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Tony Award-nominated Alan Campbell (Sunset Boulevard) as Alan Freed and multiple-Emmy Award-nominated George Wendt (Norm from Cheers) as J. Edgar Hoover \nIn the summer of 1954\, in a small radio station in Cleveland\, an unknown disc jockey heard the sound that would change America. And the rest is music history. \nRock and Roll Man is the new musical about the incredible rise and fall of Alan Freed\, the man who coined the phrase rock and roll and brought its sound to the world. He discovered black artists—and got them record deals. He traveled the country—and got them heard from coast to coast. He spoke to the younger generation—and brought them to their feet. By the dawn of the ’60s\, he was the biggest name in music—until scandal made him the biggest target in America. \nThis high energy musical highlights the greatest rock and roll legends of all time such as Little Richard\, Chuck Berry\, LaVern Baker\, Bill Haley\, Jerry Lee Lewis and Screamin’ Jay\, just to name a few. Also\, featuring original songs and some of the biggest hits of a decade\, including “Why Do Fools Fall in Love\,” “Tutti Frutti\,” “Great Balls of Fire\,” “Roll Over Beethoven\,” “Ain’t That a Shame” and many more\, Rock and Roll Man takes you behind the scenes and behind the music of one of the most influential—and controversial—figures in pop music history.
