Tina Naponelli has captured the true essence of Carole King and brings to you a unique and unforgettable tribute experience. Tina’s powerful voice and soulful dedication pay homage to the iconic Queen of Pop.
Together, with her bold 5-piece band, they create impressive renditions of “Feel the Earth Move”, ”Chains”, and “You’ve Got a Friend”, from Carole King’s “Tapestry” album, as well as other favorites.
The show takes place at an ugly sweater party, where all the guests are joyful singers, incredible tap dancers, and high-energy musicians! The interactive fun takes off on a jolly sleigh ride of swingin’ holiday mash-ups. The party gets extra exciting when Santa Claus starts rapping to Rudolph over horn-band funk while Frosty the Snowman tap dances a groove beat, and all of the other reindeer hit powerhouse hip-hop choreography -- a magical combination you have to see to believe! Just when it can’t get any more fantastic, the party comes to a hilarious halt when two singers-turned-investigators steal the show with a beatboxing version of “The Grinch!” Ultimately, the partygoers, the investigators, the audience members, and even the HUMBUG are all united in an electric, high-energy closer called “The Holiday Funk.”
DSQ is referred to as “Bach meets Bon Jovi” and is compared to artists like Lindsey Stirling, Vitamin String Quartet, Brooklyn Duo and 2Cellos.

The story of the original Mercury Seven Astronauts comes to life in an original theatrical production. Chosen from hundreds of crackerjack pilots for their fitness, intelligence and courage. Share Alan Shepard’s exhilaration as he breaks the earth’s atmosphere for the first time. Race with John Glenn s he makes the split second life-or-death maneuvers during reentry, and feel his relief when he emerges safe but drenched with sweat. Project Mercury was more than the story of individual missions. It defined the manned space flight program to come, from Gemini to Apollo eventually taking mankind from the earth to the moon.
