After captivating audiences around the world, The Simon & Garfunkel Story (www.thesimonandgarfunkelstory.com) returns for an expansive North American tour in 2027 to more than 65 cities. Producers Ruckus Entertainment today announced the internationally acclaimed production will return to fan-favorite markets and new cities across the U.S. and Canada, including a stop at the Niswonger in Van Wert on Thursday, March 18 for one show only at 7:30 PM.

"The response to this production has been remarkable, and bringing it back on such a broad national tour speaks to the lasting power of Simon & Garfunkel's music," says Dean Elliott, creator and director of the show. "These songs can fill a theatre with energy one moment and bring the room to complete stillness the next. We're looking forward to returning to cities that have embraced the show while introducing it to audiences in dozens of new markets across the country."

Fans aren't the only ones blown away by The Simon & Garfunkel Story. Art Garfunkel himself attended a previous performance, rushed the stage, grabbed the microphone, and declared, "What a great #$&%@ show!" before leaving the audience in awe once again. If the legend himself is a fan, you know this is a tour you won't want to miss.

The Simon & Garfunkel Story covers the duo's humble beginnings as Tom & Jerry, their incredible success as one of the best-selling music groups of the '60s, and their dramatic split in 1970 before culminating with the famous 1981 Concert in Central Park reunion, attended by more than half a million fans.

Featuring a set list of nearly 30 beloved songs, the production combines live performances with photos, video projection, and original film footage. Audiences will hear classics including "Mrs. Robinson," "Cecilia," "Bridge Over Troubled Water," "Homeward Bound," and many more, performed with the unmistakable harmonies that made Simon & Garfunkel one of the most celebrated musical duos of all time.

With more than 100 million albums sold worldwide, 10 GRAMMY Awards, induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and an enduring catalog that continues to inspire generations, Simon & Garfunkel remain among the most influential artists in music history.
