Act II in Full Swing at Height of Entertainment Season!

January 18, 2019
Act II STAGES is located in the Romantic Zone at the corner of Insurgentes and Basilio Badillo on the south side of Puerto Vallarta. For more information, call 222-1512, or visit their website or Facebook page.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Act II is in Full Swing at the height of the Puerto Vallarta entertainment season, with two of the season's most anticipated new musicals opening this week. 'I Got Rhythm,' from the same team that brought you 'Some Enchanted Evening,' last season's HIT musical revue, and the iconic American musical, 'Chicago.'

As we're saying "Hello" to I Got Rhythm and Chicago, sadly, we must say "Goodbye" to the magical and much-loved Cinderella, the Musical, with its memorable music and hilarious twists and turns in Act II's inimitable style. If you haven't seen it yet, make plans now to see the last matinee performance of the season on Sunday, January 20th at 3:00 pm. Get your tickets today at act2pv.com!

OPENING THIS WEEK AT ACT II STAGES

"I Got Rhythm" - Starring 6 of the best singers in Puerto Vallarta
A Celebration of the Music of Gershwin - All the songs you never knew you knew
Produced by Act II Entertainment
Directed by Alfonso López
Opening Night: Tuesday, January 22 - Party 6:00 pm / Show 7:00 pm
Every Tuesday - 7:00 pm


Summertime, I Got Rhythm, Nice Work If You Can Get It, S'Wonderful, Embraceable You, Someone to Watch Over Me, and many more! George Gershwin (1898-1937) was one of America's most influential music composers and pianists who worked in both classical and popular styles.

Most of his songs were written to words written by his brother, Ira Gershwin. Some of his most well-known works are Rhapsody in Blue, An American in Paris and Porgy and Bess, which is considered to be one of the most important American operas of the 20th century.

I Got Rhythm features beautiful harmonies, duets, solos, and mini vignettes of song and dance. Each song sparkles with pure Americana from the 20's and 30's. Come and take a step back in time as you enjoy this art-deco themed show starring Act II partner, Alfonso López, along with MaryJo Nelson, Sasha del Océano, Marsha Ward Ross, Alberto Ponce, and Andrew Sands.

"Chicago"
A NuName Production
Directed by Edoardo Rocha
Opening Night: Saturday, January 19 - Party 6:00 pm / Show 7:00 pm
Open Run: Every Saturday at 7:00 pm


The iconic American musical, Chicago, features music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and a book by Ebb and John Fosse. When it debuted on Broadway back in the 1970's, Chicago became a classic and won 6 Tony Awards! The Broadway revival in 1996 now holds the record as the longest-running musical revival and the longest-running American musical in Broadway history!

This NuName Production is absolutely amazing! It features 13 dancers, along with stage favorites, Michael Gibney, MaryJo Nelson, Maria Rose, Edoardo Rocha, Joan Houston, and Marsha Ward Ross.

Chicago is a spectacular musical that's as addictive as gossip rags, and as unforgettable as any trial of the century. It is the one show you can always count on to give you the thrills and memories that only come from seeing a Broadway musical. It is an unforgettable journey into the crime and corruption of the 1920's.
