Entertainment:Picture yourself in Manhattan. You will be amazed at the abundance of art, music and entertainment available. Manhattan offers private art galleries, theatres with plays and shows, restaurants and lounges with great music and so much more!
Upcoming Events:
An orphan, Annie, and her dog Sandy are placed in the lap of luxury for a week as a part of a publicity campaign for Oliver Warbucks. However, Annie's stay turns out to be much more than anyone had bargained for (gee whiskers!) as she works her way into everyone's hearts and learns a few things for herself. Boasting one of Broadway’s most memorable scores, including “It’s a Hard-Knock Life,” “Easy Street,” and “Tomorrow,” ANNIE is a delightful theatrical experience for the entire family. Bet your bottom dollar you’ll love it! Recommended for the entire family!
Annual Events:
Sponsored by the Manhattan Parks and Recreation Department during the summer, Arts in the Park brings the performing arts to the Larry Norvell Band Shell in City Park. Performances include a wide variety of local and regional musical acts throughout the summer. Most Friday nights you'll be able to hear great music starting at 8pm! And the Band Shell also plays host to the Little Apple Jazz Festival!
On the last full weekend in June, Manhattan hosts the Affiliated Foods Midwest Country Stampede. Country music’s hottest stars arrive in Manhattan to entertain fans from across the United States for a weekend of music, camping and excitement. Attendance for this four-day event usually exceeds 140,000 and draws the best fans in county music! Theatres: The arts in Manhattan are supported and encouraged by the Manhattan Arts Center. The MAC has enjoyed great success with its theatrical productions, Birdhouse and Jazz music concerts, gallery exhibitions and art classes. The Manhattan Arts Center sponsors and coordinates touring performances, exhibits and guest artists to the city. For more information, call (785) 537-4420, send an email or view the website.
