The Paramount Theatre for the Arts is opening their 2023-2024 season Friday night with the Kings of Queen.  Gretchen Boulka is the Executive Director for the Paramount.  She indicates they view Friday's show as the opening show for the season despite the Blind Boys of Alabama performing earlier this month. That show had to be rescheduled because they had to cancel last year.  The show Friday is a British Rock and Roll theme that starts at 6 p.m. with a Tent party outside the Paramount with British food from the Olde Brick House and live music by the Wheelhouse Trio. At 8 p.m. everyone moves inside for the Kings of Queen.  Ticket information here.
