A new show featuring two Broadway actors bringing showtunes and behind-the-scenes stories to the stage is coming to Fayetteville next month.

The new show, called Natural State of Mind and starring Eryn LeCroy, John Riddle, and accompanist Eric Frei, is coming to Walton Arts Center for two performances on Saturday, April 17.

From the description:

LeCroy and Riddle most recently performed together on Broadway as Christine Daaé and Raoul in The Phantom of the Opera. Riddle also originated the roles of Hans in Disney’s Frozen and Young Anton in The Visit on Broadway. LeCroy is set to join the company of the much-anticipated Broadway revival of 1776 as both Martha Jefferson and Dr. Lyman Hall.

Accompanied by Frei, a pianist, musical director and vocal coach from Oklahoma City, LeCroy and Riddle will perform their favorite duets and solos from Broadway shows as well as their own take on other popular pieces for this intimate cabaret-style performance.

Performances are set for 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Masks and social distancing measures will remain in place at the WAC thorugh at least May to protect staff, patrons, and performers.
