Performing Arts Fort Worth announces remaining 2011-12 season

Posted 11:52am on Sunday, Jul. 10, 2011

FORT WORTH -- Comedic legends Joan Rivers and Carol Burnett will bring their acts to the Bass Hall stage as part of the 2011-12 Performing Arts Fort Worth season lineup, announced Sunday.

Also on tap: Garrison Keillor's "Summer Love Tour" just after Labor Day, tap dance legend Savion Glover, actor-comedian Lewis Black and tributes to the Blues Brothers, Ricky Nelson, Hank Williams and Patsy Cline. Pianist Jim Brickman's coming back for a holiday show, as are the favorite triple-named cowboys of December, Michael Martin Murphey and Robert Earl Keen.

Last month, PAFW announced its Broadway at the Bass Series lineup ( Shrek the Musical, Irving Berlin's White Christmas, Monty Python's Spamalot, Marry Poppins and Blue Man Group) and Broadway Specials ( The Wizard of Oz, The Midtown Men and Young Frankenstein).

Two new seasons are being added at the smaller McDavid Studio: "Broadway Off Bass at McDavid" and "McDavid Studio Concert Series."

Here's a schedule of the just-announced acts coming to Bass Hall next season. Subscriptions for these series go on sale 10 a.m. Saturday. (Most single tickets available later; singles for "Popular Entertainment," "Special Attractions" and McDavid Studio Concert Series" on sale Saturday.)
