Tony’s Pizza Events Center announced today that The Texas Tenors concert scheduled for Sept. 19 will be moved to the arena in order to allow for socially distanced seating.
“We know that the public is missing live entertainment. By moving The Texas Tenors into a larger area, we are able to keep the original show date, and keep our guests socially distanced,” said Susan Trafton, general manager at Tony’s Pizza Events Center. “The safety and well-being of our guests, performers and staff is our top priority.”
The Texas Tenors performance in Salina is a fundraiser for Shriners Hospitals for Children and is being brought to you by the ISIS Shrine. Since 1922, the mission of Shriners Hospitals for Children is to provide the highest quality care to children with neuromusculoskeletal conditions, burn injuries, and other special healthcare needs within a compassionate, family-centered, and collaborative care environment. They also provide for the education of physicians and other healthcare professionals and conduct research to discover new knowledge that improves the quality of care and quality of life of children and families. This mission is carried out without regard to race, color, creed, sex, disability, national origin, or the ability of a patient or family to pay. The ISIS Shrine has been a viable part of the central and western Kansas communities since June 1887. The ISIS Shrine mission is to support Shriners Hospitals or Children and to ensure all travel expenses of patients and families are covered, no matter the ability of the patient or family to pay.
The Texas Tenors, John Hagen, JC Fisher & Marcus Collins, are the most successful music group and third highest selling artist in the history of NBC’s America’s Got Talent! Since appearing on the show in 2009 they have released four studio albums, two PBS specials, four DVDs and won multiple awards. Their most recent albums “Rise” and“A Collection of Broadway and American Classics” both debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Chart.
These classically trained, versatile tenors have performed more than 1,400 concerts around the world including headlining shows in Las Vegas, China and a 24-city tour of the United Kingdom. In 2019, they were honored to be included among the top 50 acts in the world, and the only vocal group from the United States invited to compete on NBC’s primetime series America’s Got Talent: The Champions.
