The entertainment includes a lineup of great music entertainment, including country, rock, Christian rock, oldies, metal and alternative bands.

Pat Travers will entertain on the Main stage Sunday. Travers’ critically acclaimed 1976 debut album featured his own brand of high quality seventies guitar rock and roll. He went on to deliver melodic eighties rock, a blues period in the nineties, performances with various power trio’s in the new Millennium, and a full blooded return to the trademark Pat Travers Band sound as he entered his fifth performing and recording decade.

Other notable music performers appearing at the festival include Ever So Klever, 3rd Stone, VK Lynne, Suite Caroline, Amber Leigh, Scott Lindsey, Passerine and many more.

Riverside Theatre’s ‘How to Succeed’ still funny 50 years later

Who’d have thought a nitwit, a bimbo, a braggart and a big shot could set up a classist conundrum of morality. Not quite? Then how about a Broadway play, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” a 1961 musical based on a satirical handbook written a decade earlier. The loftier premise of the play is that the corporate workplace is a bastion of B.S., where conniving worms can wriggle their way to the top without regard to ethics or even a solid C.V. The reality is that watching a lowly laborer unzip his blue-collar coveralls to prove he can be a suit with the best of them can be fun to watch, especially with a bevy of secretaries tossed ...

‘How to Succeed’ playright’s son now lives in Castaway Cove

It was no surprise that when Riverside Theatre’s Allen Cornell asked the opening night audience how many had seen “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” before, hands shot up throughout the theater. After all, the musical that won playwrights Frank Loesser and Abe Burrows the 1962 Pulitzer Prize was a huge Broadway hit, with two revivals including one three years ago. Of all the fans in Vero, though, none could be as familiar as one Castaway Cove resident, Frank Loesser’s son, John Loesser. Now the manager of Stuart’s Lyric Theatre, John Loesser was 12 when the musical opened. A budding French horn player, he watched it from a seat in the orchestra pit of the Broadway Theatre, nestled ...

Mike Block sinks his teeth in to improve music

Cellist Mike Block is a master of improvisation. So when a student at a recent strings improv workshop at Vero Beach High School asked a potentially awkward question about his teeth, Block went straight for the laugh. “When I was your age, I had braces,” he deadpanned. “Total waste. I lost all those perfect teeth.” And that’s how the musical director of Yo-yo Ma’s Silk Road Project has faced all of his audiences – with humor. His once checkboard smile is perfect again, fixed last year after an accident five years ago knocked out nine of his teeth. He was visiting Vero last month to build interest for his fifth international Mike Block String Camp scheduled for early July. For ...
