US Army Soldier Show August 12-13

The U.S. Army Soldier Show is coming to Enterprise!

The US Army Soldier Show makes a tour stop on August 12 & 13 at 7 pm each night at the Enterprise High School Performing Arts Center for their show “Stand Strong”. The Soldier Show performs across the country, entertaining Soldiers, Families, Retirees and Civilians with its all Soldier cast. Be sure to mark your calendars for your chance to see this high energy, musical performance. Open to the Public. Free admission, no ticket required. For more information, check out www.ftruckermwr.com. 

The Soldier Show is a totally self-contained touring operation where the cast and crew travel to a select Army garrison location, load-in and set-up for the show and then entertain all comers, both Soldier and Civilian. After the show, the same cast and crew have the responsibility to break-down and load-out for the next show. 

This crew was selected not only for their ability to perform solo, but also their ability to entertain with musical instruments, work in ensemble dance numbers and inspire an audience from the stage. 

This year's production, "Stand Strong" explores the foundational elements of what it is that instills the strength and character of our Soldiers and our Army, according to Tim Higdon, U.S. Army Entertainment producer and program Manager. As in the past, the cast and crew are selected to exemplify the Army values of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity and personal courage. 

"The 2014 show will also honor the Army's continued resilience and strength with its mission to effectively inform, educate and inspire our audiences to action," said Higdon. 

Army Entertainment is the official agency for producing and delivering diverse musical, unit entertainment activities, special events, touring shows, talent competitions and theater entertainment to Soldiers, Families, Civilians and Retirees at home and abroad. All entertainment operations are headquartered at Fort Sam Houston Theatre, including the Soldier Show as well as Operation Rising Star and the Army Concert Series.
