FLORENCE LARUE & THE 5TH DIMENSION TAKE STONEHAM THEATRE AUDIENCES UP AND AWAY

Stoneham Theatre is taking audiences up, up, and away with Florence LaRue & The 5th Dimension this weekend for four perfomances only, January 10-12, 2014.  Ms. LaRue, one of the group’s original members, is looking forward to visiting the Greater Boston Area.  “I grew up on the East Coast, and although I enjoy living in California, I always look forward to a trip back East,” Ms. LaRue shared.  “I miss the people and the change of seasons,” she added. 

After catapulting to stardom in 1967 with the smash hit Up, Up and Away, The 5th Dimension released over a dozen hit albums and received 14 gold records, 6 platinum records and 6 Grammy Awards.  Their other classics include such hits as:  One Less Bell to Answer, Wedding Bell Blues, and Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In

Ms. LaRue’s visit won’t be all work and no play, however.  “I am especially excited about this particular trip because I will have a chance to visit with a high school classmate,” Ms. LaRue shared.  “I do pray for warm weather!”
