The WYO Performing Arts and Education Center has announced they host the voices of one of the most iconic 1990s animated series — “Animaniacs” — in concert at 7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 26.
According to the WYO, this show stars the show’s original Emmy-winning composer, Randy Rogel, on piano and the voices of Emmy-winner Rob Paulsen (the voice of Yakko and Pinky) and Maurice LaMarche (the voice of The Brain).
Rogel has written songs and scripts for many well-known animated motion pictures, particularly for Warner Bros. Animation and Disney.
In addition to his contributions to “Animaniacs,” Paulsen has held well-known acting roles including the voice of Donatello on Nickelodeon’s “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.”
LaMarche has voiced thousands of hours of TV and animated series, including “Futurama,” “The Simpsons,” “Inspector Gadget,” “Hey Arnold” and more. He was the voice of the King in Disney’s “Frozen” and he is the voice of Toucan Sam for Kellogg’s Fruit Loops.
The WYO reports that the trio will perform the world-famous songs from the beloved cartoon series, backed by the original projected animation.
“Animaniacs” debuted as a TV series in the early 1990s, with new episodes currently streaming on Hulu.
Tickets for the show are available through the WYO box office. The cost is $32 for adults, $29 for seniors and military members and $26 for students.
