Puppy Pals LIVE - as seen on America's Got Talent!
Join us at the historic Sorg Opera House for our first Local Music Showcase, featuring three of the area's best rock bands for just $10! Known throughout Ohio as The Rubi Girls, this dynamic, close-knit troupe of professionals has been performing since the late 1980’s. Comprised of business owners, a filmmaker, a graphic designer, an IT director, a merchandise manager, a make-up artist, cosmetologists, hairstylists, and educators, the group began performing for one another in an attic during college. What started on Rubicon Street has grown into a frenzy for seating arrangements upon the announcement of a show. Romance of Iron and Steel (1938), documents ARMCO’s innovative rolling mill process.

Armco Night At The Movies
In 1901, The Sorg began showing early forms of motion pictures, such as photo plays, and vaudeville performances before the operas. The live shows were discontinued in the late 1920s, and in the summer of 1929 a sound system was installed, turning the Sorg into a full time movie theater. Soon after, the Friends of the Sorg group was formed to reopen it as a live performance venue.
Local Music Showcase Featuring Armadeus, Desalitt, and Atlas Stone
Hot coming off of the heels of his last sold out comedy tour Tyrus is ready to entertain again with fresh new material but the same old common sense. Kevin Martin, chief curator of library collections at the Hagley Museum and Library, and Sam Ashworth, trustee and past president of the Middletown Historical Society, co-host the event. This performance is made possible in part by generous grants from the Middletown Community Foundation.
They were successful, and ran the theater until 2010, when a water main break forced the opera house to close again. In 2012, the Sorg Opera Revitalization Group (SORG) formed to buy and reopen the building. Ricky Nelson, the original "teen idol," remains a chart topper and trail blazer to this day! The multi-talented Nelson starred along side his family in the TV series The Adventures Of Ozzie And Harriet, co-starred with John Wayne and Dean Martin in Rio Bravo, and placed a whopping 53 songs on the Billboard Hot 100, a new feature at the time. His single "Poor Little Fool" is considered to be the first number one song on the chart. After 19 more top ten hits, he was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1987 and is ranked #49 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Stars Of All Time.

Visitors will also learn about the current ongoing restoration work on the theater, what SORG has accomplished so far, upcoming shows, and how they can help with future restoration efforts. Art Central Foundation is pleased to welcome the incomparable Rubi Girls to the stage of the historic Sorg Opera House for our annual Drag Me to Brunch fundraiser this year! We anticipate a big crowd for this one, so brunch will be an add-on ticket to the show with limited availability and will be held at Art Central Foundation's event space. The Rubi Girls will be performing a PG13 show for us, just like the movies, so content is appropriate for those 13 and over if accompanied by a parent. Whether he’s tackling the issues of race and activism in America today or confronting his past with stories of family, relationships, wrestling, and more, this is pure Tyrus at his unbridled best. The parallels he draws between current culture and his personal past are insightful, provocative, and profound.

His twin sons, multi-platinum recording artists Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, return to relive the music and memories with their multimedia event Ricky Nelson Remembered. Main Street USA (1963), shot principally in Middletown, the film shows how advancements in steel technology revolutionized the steel industry and improved everyday lives. Every ARMCO employee in the country was given the opportunity to watch the movie on company time. The Sorg Opera House Theatre recently underwent an incredible renovation, bringing this grand building full of history back to life. Guests can enjoy a variety of shows and events at a venue that holds great significance in the history of theater.
Wesley Williams leads the puppies through a show full of surprises and laugh-out-loud canine comedy. Join Tyrus for a Meet & Greet after the show where you can get a photo and autograph. His New York Times best selling memoir “Just Tyrus” and pre-order “Nuff Said” which comes out in November will be for sale at the event as well. Proceeds from the concert and 50/50 raffle will benefit Middletown Rotary’s charitable projects which include helping local children through school based programs and community organizations like Sleep In Heavenly Peace and Abilities First.
Check out Middletown’s daily activities, or spend the day shopping at unique, locally owned retail shops just a few streets over. Since then, the opera house, constructed in 1890 and designed by architect Samuel Hannaford, who also designed the nearby Sorg Mansion, has experienced major renovations. Once considered another empty historic building in downtown Middletown, the Sorg Opera House has been rejuvenated, survived the coronavirus pandemic and is flourishing, said Nancy Griffith, board president of the Sorg Opera Revitalization Group (SORG).
Griffith said the Sorg is important to the community because it provides local theater enthusiasts an opportunity to see local productions and it’s an economic driver for downtown businesses. There are 17 musical shows scheduled for the rest of the year and seven so far in 2022. Puppy Pals is a nationally touring family fun, action-packed show where adopted and rescued dogs perform spectacular stunts and breathtaking feats onstage before your very eyes! Watch spellbound as we lead the puppies and audience through challenging and comical tricks, as the pooches show everyone who is really boss!
