The 60s, 70s and 80s were a golden era for songwriting and during that period acts like Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons, Tommy James and The Shondells, and other big name chart-busting groups created beloved hits that have been heard for generations and are woven into America’s consciousness. Now, after decades behind the scenes, some of the greatest artists who were instrumental in the success of these fabulous groups and their hit songs have reunited to form THE HIT MEN. Not Broadway actors or a tribute band, these guys are the real performers who traveled all over the world, creating music and memories – from Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall and the Hollywood Bowl to the Sydney Opera House and the London Palladium. A group of amazing performers, superb musicians, superior vocalists, great arrangers and creative composers, THE HIT MEN are hitmakers of the 60s, 70s and 80s – including performing and recording members of mega-star acts like Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, Tommy James and the Shondells, The Critters, and bandmates who played and performed with Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, Carly Simon and more. On the road touring as THE HIT MEN, this brotherhood of musicians relive the magic they created on world stages and in recording studios years ago, bringing audiences a night of mega-hit after megahit, after mega-hit – including everyone’s favorite Four Seasons songs like “Oh What a Night,” “Who Loves You,” “Marianne,” “Silence is Golden,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Rag Doll” and more great tunes made even more famous by Broadway’s Jersey Boys. And they also perform many other memorable solid gold hits that they helped make famous – including “Mony, Mony,” “Hanky Panky,” “Peace Train,” “Bad, Bad Leroy Brown,” “You’re So Vain,” “You Belong To Me,” and “Younger Girl.” During their performance, THE HIT MEN also share great back stories and anecdotes from their days in recording studios and on the concert circuit; it’s a great look back through rock & roll history from the guys who lived and breathed the experience.

Their enduring vision, along with their generous support, ultimately led to an approval by school district residents to build a dedicated facility on the grounds of Cedarburg High School. In 1999, their efforts were realized when the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center opened its doors. While the facility was designed to provide exciting learning and performance opportunities for our students, community residents also were promised a magnificent venue beyond school presentations. With this in mind, several community leaders came together with the intent of creating a vehicle – Cedarburg PAC, Inc. – to produce the Visiting Artists Series. They believed such a series would showcase Cedarburg on the world’s stage. And they worked tirelessly to make this concept a reality. Those founding sponsors and our other long-time supporters made it an incredible journey... one that always reflected the organization’s mission of “supporting and sustaining a professionally managed environment which presents programming to Enlighten, Educate and Entertain our greater community.” During the past fifteen years, Cedarburg PAC has been host to a large slice of American performing arts history showcasing some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry: Bob Newhart, Doc Severinsen, The Smothers Brothers, The Crickets, Janis Ian, Judy Collins, Hal Holbrook, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Don McLean, Chris Botti, Kathy Mattea, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Osmond Brothers, Rich Little, The Lettermen, Cherish the Ladies and many others. These artists come to us with varied backgrounds, perspectives, opinions, and performance styles. They give us exposure to their lives and experiences, and expand our base of knowledge regarding a part of America’s cultural history that has helped to shape our country. Cedarburg PAC, Inc. has worked with Cedarburg School District teachers and staff members to ensure that students play an integral role in our Visiting Artists Series. Master classes with renowned artists, open sound checks, Q&A sessions, as well as opportunities to work along side the performers themselves, are part of our commitment to provide valuable educational interactions for students. A continuing source of pride has been the many students who have gone on to successful careers in the arts industry. From its inception, the partnership between the Cedarburg School District and Cedarburg PAC, Inc. has been a wonderful example of public and private entities working together to benefit community residents and visitors. We are proud partners in this endeavor! Thank you all for being part of our amazing journey. We look forward to seeing you during our exciting 2014-2015 season of arts and education at the Cedarburg PAC. The Hit Men: Former Stars of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons 15 E N G AG I N G YO U T H I N T H E P E R F O R M I N G A R T S In keeping with the Visiting Artists Series’ mission, students (and the community-at-large) had opportunities last season to learn about the performing arts and to hone their own talents! Broadway singer/actor, Franc D’Ambrosio (known as the longest running Phantom in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera) amplified his performance at the Cedarburg PAC by bringing two young singers from the community on stage with him. He conducted an open audition and master class the day prior to his performance to choose people to sing the parts of Christine and Raoul in his Phantom of the Opera set. Wisconsin’s favorite funnyman, John McGivern, conducted an Actor’s Workshop for about 30 high school drama students. Attendees had the opportunity to learn about the professional experience of a comedic actor and enjoy a few laughs. McGivern also distributed portions of scripts from his past performances and gave some students the opportunity to read for the entire group and receive coaching, as well as compliments on their readings. 16 Cedarburg PAC
