Oscar Hammerstein II is considered one of the most iconic Broadway writers and producers in musical theater history. That is why his grandson, Will Hammerstein, is looking to turn the former icon's farm and house into a Hammerstein museum and educational center.
Will Hammerstein joins Cheddar in New York to discuss, "An Enchanted Evening: A Night With Oscar Hammerstein II." The off-Broadway show is a docu-musical that focuses on the evolution of Hammerstein's work. The funds from the show are being allocated towards turning Highland Farm into The Oscar Hammerstein II Museum and Theatre Education Center.
From Carousel to The Sound of Music, Hammerstein left an incredible footprint on musical theater. "An Enchanted Evening: A Night With Oscar Hammerstein II." is open through December 16th.
The mother of a 6-year-old who shot his teacher in Virginia pleaded guilty Tuesday to a charge of felony child neglect, seven months after her son used her handgun to critically wound the educator in a classroom full of students.
Ahead of National Roller Coaster Day on Wednesday, Alessandro Zamperla, president and CEO of Central Amusement International, spoke with Cheddar News about the park's history and recent expansion.
