Supplier Spotlight - Legends In Concert celebrating 15-years with style

“We’re thrilled to be celebrating our 15th season along the Grand Strand,” stated Anne Eckenrode, director of group sales, Legends In Concert. “What really has us excited is to be introducing so many new things in 2010,” Eckenrode continued.


 It just seems logical to begin with the performers in what has become known as the “World’s Greatest Live Tribute Show.” On March 19, 1995 the opening line-up for Legends In Concert Myrtle Beach included Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton, The Blues Brothers, Reba McEntire and Neil Diamond. Many of those favorites will perform in 2010, but for the first time ever on the Myrtle Beach stage, visitors will see tributes to Martina McBride, Conway Twitty and The Beatles! Also, for the month of July only, Michael Jackson “The King of Pop” will be entertaining Myrtle Beach audiences.
A host of new performers is just a beginning for the show that has entertained more than 16 million fans worldwide… and counting. Legends In Concert at Myrtle Beach is delighted to announce that Steve Fairchild has assumed the position of production manager. Fairchild has been with Legends for 10-years performing as Garth Brooks. “I am excited to assume the production manager role and anxious to expand the production values beyond even the Legends In Concert standards,” Fairchild commented. A new stage set and all new lighting in 2010 are contributing to those production values.
There is even new product being introduced at Legends In Concert. Working with educators the Legends team has developed a brand new program for the student/youth market. The 3-R Education Program: Rhythm, Rock N’ Roll engages students in a choice of language arts, art, history, science and math. Each discipline can be expanded to include a 30-minute Q & A with members of the cast and a 20-minute performance prior to the show.
From new performers and a new production manager to new facility additions and a new program, Legends In Concert truly is celebrating their 15th anniversary with style. Make plans for your group to join the party. For information: 800-955-3436, aeckenrode@legendsinconcert.com, or visit online at www.legendsinconcert.com.
