A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical is coming to Baum Walker Hall for a limited run this week. The Broadway-caliber production was created with Diamond himself and tells the story of how a kid from Brooklyn became one of music’s biggest icons. With 120 million albums sold, inductions into both the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, Diamond’s career speaks for itself.
The show traces his journey from struggling songwriter to chart-topping star, all set to the soundtrack of classics like “Sweet Caroline,” “America,” and “Forever in Blue Jeans.” Tony Award-winning producer Ken Davenport has said that the story itself has connected with audiences in ways that make this more than just another jukebox musical. It’s an inspiring look at perseverance, creativity, and the highs and lows of chasing a dream. The production brings Diamond’s five-decade career to life with high-energy performances and all the hits you know by heart.
Want to elevate your night? Add on a $45 cocktail class before the show. You’ll learn to mix two specialty cocktails from local mixologists while enjoying appetizers from Fayetteville High School’s Brightwater culinary students.
Don’t miss your chance to catch the show before it leaves town.
