UPH Announces New Shows: Soul Asylum, Broadway Tunes, Naked Magicians

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Universal Preservation Hall (UPH) recently announced an eclectic lineup of upcoming performances that include a Grammy-winning rock band, classic Broadway tunes, and even naked magicians.

UPH will present Sing Along Broadway on Feb. 5, inviting audiences to take part in an interactive concert celebrating popular songs from the Broadway stage. The performance encourages audience participation as singers and hosts lead numbers from classic and contemporary musicals.

JJ Grey & Mofro will bring their signature blend of Southern soul, blues, funk, rock, and roots music to the UPH stage on Feb. 13.

On Feb. 20, the Naked Magicians will bring their Las Vegas act to the Spa City with an adults-only show that combines comedy, audience interaction, and illusions. Fresh off sold-out performances around the globe, the duo presents a humorous take on magic.

On April 9, Croce Plays Croce will celebrate the catalog of Jim Croce while his son A.J. Croce showcases his own musicianship. The performance features classics alongside original material, offering audiences an evening of storytelling, piano-driven music, and legacy.

Soul Asylum’s acoustic show will bring their alternative rock sound and decades-spanning catalog to UPH on April 26. The group is perhaps best known for its 1993 hit “Runaway Train,” which won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Song, as well as its musical contributions to three classic Kevin Smith films: “Clerks,” “Clerks II,” and “Chasing Amy.”

Tickets for these shows are currently on sale through the Box Office at Proctors in person, via phone at (518) 346-6204, or online by visiting atuph.org.
