Classical Duo To Perform Broadway's Greatest Hits In Ocean County

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ — Ocean County's favorite tenor and soprano will be performing hits from Broadway's Golden Age right on the water.

Dakota & Elle are bringing "THE GOLDEN AGE OF BROADWAY: Broadway's Greatest Hits from the '40s, '50s, and '60s" to St. Elisabeth's By-The-Sea in July.

The duo of Dakota Reider and Elle Jones are often compared to a young Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman. The two met in a community theatre production of "Pippin" and have been making music together ever since. Both are classically trained by Julliard Master Teacher Steven Schnurman.

St. Elisabeth's was an icon of Ortley Beach from 1885 until it was destroyed by Superstorm Sandy in 2012. The new chapel opened in 2017, and its all-wooden interior creates the perfect acoustic environment for Broadway's classic hits.

"Held right on the water at the gorgeous St. Elisabeth's Chapel in Ortley Beach, this summer concert is perfect for anyone who is a fan of Broadway's greatest numbers from its golden age!" the duo shared in a press release.

Fifty percent of the concert's proceeds will go towards St. Elisabeth's as they continue to rebuild.

The show runs about two hours, including an intermission. Concessions are available.

Show dates are July 13 at 7 p.m., July 14 at 7 p.m., and July 15 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Tickets are $25 VIP, $22 Standard, $20 Student/Senior, $15 Child available online here. Group rates are available for groups of 8+.

St. Elisabeth's By-The-Sea is located at 5 3rd Ave, Seaside Heights. Visit Dakota & Elle's website for more information.
