Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Act II kicked off the season with two new shows. Paul Fracassi previewed his 2017 show, 20th Century Crooners, to the best reviews of the year, while Brittany Kingery's new show, Hasten Down The Wind, a Linda Ronstadt retrospective, was such a sellout success it was forced to move from Act II's Red Room Cabaret, a 100 seat venue to the Main Stage theater selling out 160 seats. Both shows will be part of the 2016-2017 season at Act II.
