Moss, has staged over 35 national and international tours, and often directs newly imagined productions of classic musicals. He also directed the critically acclaimed recent Off-Broadway and London productions of Bock and Harnick\u2019s new musical play,\u00a0<em>Rothschild &amp; Sons<\/em>, along with a slew of others.<\/p>\n<p>For an evening filled with romance, adventure and plenty of Gershwin, be sure to nab tickets for <strong><em>An American in Paris<\/em><\/strong>, at the <strong>Vilar Performing Arts Center<\/strong> on <strong>Jan. 22<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Romance on the stage Relive the famous musical An American in Paris when the national Broadway tour lands at the&#8230;<br \/><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/2020\/01\/a-national-broadway-tour-american-in-paris\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1212,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[87,86,833],"tags":[731,622,2083,2080,2079,2084],"class_list":["post-31003","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-community-press-releases","category-signature-event-press-releases","category-visitor-information","tag-beaver-creek","tag-beaver-creek-events","tag-broadway","tag-entertainment","tag-family-entertainment","tag-theater"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>A National Broadway Tour - American in Paris | Vail Valley Partnership<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/2020\/01\/a-national-broadway-tour-american-in-paris\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"A National Broadway Tour - American in Paris | Vail Valley Partnership\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Romance on the stage Relive the famous musical An American in Paris when the national Broadway tour lands at the...Read More\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/2020\/01\/a-national-broadway-tour-american-in-paris\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Vail Valley Partnership\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/VailValleyPartnership\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-01-16T20:10:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Vilar Performing Arts Center\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Vilar Performing Arts Center\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/2020\/01\/a-national-broadway-tour-american-in-paris\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/2020\/01\/a-national-broadway-tour-american-in-paris\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Vilar Performing Arts Center\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.vailvalleypartnership.com\/#\/schema\/person\/2d1d0d1d4ac21e44557d50be533bb892\"},\"headline\":\"A National Broadway Tour &#8211;
