March 6 – DIVAS3
Straight from the Las Vegas strip comes DIVAS3, a trio of talented women with powerhouse voices singing the biggest hits of the greatest divas from the 1960s to 1990s. Critics call the show “an enticing mix of glamour, class and goosebump-inducing vocals.”
Divas3 honors the hits by pop-music icons like Aretha Franklin, Carole King, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Cher, Dolly Parton, Donna Summer and more.
Divas3 is made up of Kirby Long, Tracy Distefano, and Emily Yates, lead singers from some of the biggest shows in Vegas, who have toured the world and headlined on luxury cruise lines. Long was the lead vocalist in the touring production of “ABBAMANIA.” Distefano’s theater credits include “Dreamgirls,” and she opened for Lionel Richie and Diana Ross. Yates was the lead singer in the touring productions of “Wicked” and “Mamma Mia.”
Imagine a concert that includes the greatest divas of rock and roll sharing the same stage, and you get a sense of this powerful, entertaining show.
March 12 – Bloopers, Blunders & Brainstorms That Worked!
The Clermont Performing Arts Center is proud to announce our popular, signature matinee series, “You Are There, Too!” hosted by Emmy and Peabody Award-winner Charlie Grinker, is returning for a second season with eight, all new specials.
Grinker will once again bring his charm, rare videos and spellbinding anecdotes drawn from over 60 years in New York City interviewing some of the biggest celebrities of our time.
Host Charlie Grinker proves that history is full of bloopers and blunders that turned convention on its head on the road to success. He also shows that much overnight success is really the result of years of hard work and failed attempts.
See how U.S. presidents and movie stars make their share of blunders and bloopers. Some of the celebrities included are Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, Jackie Gleason, Lucille Ball, Bess Truman, Humphrey Bogart, and Gutzon Borglum as he blunders while sculpting Mount Rushmore.

March 21 – Hotel California
For decades, the band Hotel California has been re-creating the legendary sound of The Eagles. Since 1986, Hotel California has thrilled audiences around the world sharing the stage with some of rock’s biggest legends.
Critics say Hotel California owes its popularity to spot-on, similar lead vocals, intensely accurate instrumentals, and soaring harmonies. With more than a century of collective experience, the band has mastered the music of The Eagles, which had two of the top 20 best-selling albums of all time.
Some of their biggest hits include: “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” “Take It to the Limit” and the group’s signature song, “Hotel California.”
Perhaps the band’s greatest compliment came from The Doobie Brothers, who said, “You guys sounded great. Loved your vocals,” and invited Hotel California to join them on stage.
As one fan put it, “If you love The Eagles, then welcome to Hotel California – you just found the next best thing.”
