At 7:30 on Aug. 31, Broadway musical theater actress Victoria Matlock returns to the Martin Hotel in Winnemucca with another show, once again sponsored jointly by Great Basin Arts and Entertainment and White Sage Theatre. Almost exactly three years ago Matlock presented an evening of Broadway songs to a sold-out audience at the Martin Hotel. Since that performance there have been numerous comments made about the evening - most of which can be summarized as, "When is she coming back?" During the past three years the singer has been performing in the Broadway show "Million Dollar Quartet." She was in this new musical for 901 performances - 523 on Broadway and the remainder when the show moved off-Broadway. She played the part of Dyanne, Elvis Presley's girlfriend and the only female in the show. The show's heavy production schedule of eight shows a week has prevented her from returning to Winnemucca. But now, she's back! In this upcoming performance at the Martin Hotel Matlock will be performing many of the songs she sang in the show, as well as a medley of other songs. In addition she will open the floor for questions, especially for questions from young people who may be thinking of an acting career. Matlock graduated from the University of Northern Colorado in 1999 with a degree in musical theater and a minor in computer science. The computer science education was to enable her to have an alternate career if the theater didn't work out. Since graduating she has been almost continuously working in the theater and has only used her computer background to prepare web sites for herself and a few friends. Her web site is located at www.victoriamatlock.com. Miss Matlock's performance will be at 7:30 pm, Aug. 31 at The Martin Hotel. Admission is $10 and tickets are available at the Martin, Nature's Corner and Global Coffee, or on line at www.themartinhotel.com F[[In-content Ad]]
