This is Elton! Crash land into your seat with The Rocket Man Show, starring Scotsman Rus Anderson – Elton John’s official stunt and body double as featured in the ‘Farewell Yellow Brick Road’ world tour.
Chosen by Elton himself, Rus pilots a night of greatest hits, while slamming the piano and wearing Elton’s actual, personally owned costumes from the 1970s.
As featured on E!, Rus’ portrayal has been described as “Amazing” by Jimmy Fallon and “Phenomenal” by Queen’s Adam Lambert.
The Rocket Man Show has quickly joined the list of must-see tickets in town and is perhaps summed up best by ‘All About That Bass’ megastar Meghan Trainor, who claims, “You IS Elton!”
It’s one small step for man…one giant leap for Elton John fans.

Open to all Patrons!
1 hour before performance
The Capitol Lounge is almost as busy as the Martin Theatre and serves two purposes. First, it’s a good place to start any visit to 220 West 4th Street. So come early, meet your friends, and enjoy a drink. Located on the second floor, the Capitol Lounge typically opens 1 hour the before show, remains open during intermission (if there is one), and typically stays open 1 hour after the show. The Lounge is accessible from the Mezzanine or via the lobby elevator (2R). There is a full bar, a large-screen TV where you can watch the performance, and an outside deck with a fire pit.
Thank you to our Capitol Lounge Sponsors:

Each summer a production is picked and auditions are held for students in grade 7th through 12th.

The community looks forward to this production every summer and it has become a true testament to quality and quantity of available talent in the Greater Williamsport area.

Aerosmith, KISS, Heart, Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and more—the soundtrack of an extraordinary year in rock music- brought roaring back to the stage. For the Uptown Music Collective’s 84th major performance, the students of its Special Performance Group will turn the Journey Bank Community Arts Center stage into WUMC, a live rock radio broadcast celebrating the music of 1976, with local radio personalities joining them onstage. UMC performances are known for their energy, passion, and excitement. As one audience member put it: “Watching them live, I never think about them being kids. It’s only when I see them after the show that I’m like, ‘That’s impossible.” WUMC: The Spirit of ’76 is scheduled for Friday, November 20, & Saturday, November 21, at 7:30 p.m.
