Tickets often available at door but to ensure a seat
CALL
FOR
RESERVATIONS
401-725-9272
Please understand that when a show is SOLD OUT, it truly is! We must adhere to fire codes and it truly is not possible to fit "just one more"... especially when we have had several people ask to do the same!
If a show at BRT has an advance price & a day-of-show price it means:
If you pre-pay OR call in your reservation any time before the show date, you get the advance price. If you show up at the door with no reservations OR call in your reservations on the same day as the show, you will pay the day-of show-price.
NOTE for prepaid tickets
or if reservations have been made but not pre-paid:
If you reduce the number of tickets requested or paid for at the box office on the night of the performance, that ticket must still be paid for! BRT requires 24 hour notice for cancellations or you will be charged for all seats reserved.

Dear Steve,
Hello all! It's been awhile but I hope you have all been having an amazing summer of music, dance and fun...
BRT has taken most of the summer off after our amazing Solstice Festival (the biggest yet) but many classes have still been ongoing and we are currently doing a lot of the behind-the-scenes work... renovations, painting, gardening, redoing the floors etc... And look for a brand-new parking lot and front walkway this Fall!
But FIRST, we are really excited to bring to you a rare summer concert at BRT... direct from Ireland, we will present THE BROCK MCGUIRE BAND this Saturday... named Ireland's Instrumental band of the decade by Irish American News... don't miss their Rhode Island debut!
Lots of classes coming up soon and I'm not kidding...we have a KILLER Fall lineup planned for you! Take a quick look to the left... our website will be updated soon with full info...
Don't forget to LIKE us on Facebook to get late-breaking news and really expensive gifts. Well, not that last one but definitely the first part... We are at 897 likes ...who is going to put us over 900? Please share what we do with your friends! www.facebook.com/pages/Blackstone-River-Theatre/165592431396
Hope to see you soon...

THE BROCK McGUIRE BAND
 The Brock McGuire Band, named "Traditional Irish Band of the Decade" by Irish American News, will make their Rhode Island debut in a rare summer concert at Blackstone River Theatre. Residing in County Clare, Ireland, button accordionist Paul Brock and fiddler Manus McGuire are two of Ireland's most celebrated traditional musicians and have been at the forefront of Irish music for many years through their joint work as founding members of the celebrated band Moving Cloud. Manus is also a founding member of Buttons & Bows, and both bands, ranking among Ireland's finest, have helped to introduce international audiences to the virtuosity of their playing.
Performing with The Brock McGuire Band are two other outstanding musicians - Dublin-based Garry O'Meara, a brilliant banjo player, and Denis Carey, an acclaimed pianist, composer and arranger from County Tipperary. Passion and precision, authenticity and diversity are the hallmarks of The Brock McGuire Band in concert. They are steeped in tradition and perform it with abiding respect and creativity. Their tight blend of instruments emphasizes mostly Irish music but also sprinkles in impressive arrangements of American Old Timey, Bluegrass, French-Canadian, and other Celtic traditions. Their new CD collaboration "Green Grass Blue Grass" with 14-time Grammy Award Winner Ricky Skaggs has been hailed as "A Masterpiece" by American Music critic Bill Margeson.
