"A lot of Broadway show tunes that kids will known from Disney musicals and new musicals and it's something that the whole family can come out and enjoy."

Joseph, who is known for her big role in the Phantom of the Opera on Broadway in New York, said while performing in the big city is glamorous, there is no place like home.

"It's my favorite place in the world to perform since I grew up in Detroit and went to Michigan State. So, to me, it beats Broadway, being at home on a stage in Michigan."
