    Hang out at Arnold's with the Happy Days gang when the musical opens at Hayswood Theatre on Friday.

    Happy Days will take place Feb. 15, 16, 22, 23, Mar. 1, and 2 at 8 p.m. each night.  Matinees are to happen Feb. 17, 24,a and Mar. 3 at 2 p.m. each day.  All performances will go on at Hayswood Theatre, located at 115 S. Capitol Ave. in Corydon, IN.

    Tickets for each show are $14 for adults, $12 for children 18 and under and $12 for seniors.  Due to limited seating, advanced ticket purchases are highly recommended.  Tickets can be purchased by calling the Corydon Convention and Visitors Bureau at 812-738-2138 or 888-738-2137.  More information on the show can be found at the Hayswood Theatre website.

    Happy Days: The Musical features all of the favorite characters from the 1970s TV series, including Arnold, Richie, Potsie, and some guy named The Fonz.  However, in 1959 Milwaukee, Wisconsin, not all is well with the Happy Days gang.  Arnold's is in danger of closing (and being replaced by a new-fangled thing called a mall), and it's up to the gang to save the hangout.  They'll do that with a mix of dancing, music, and a wrestling contest.  

    Jen Anderson directed Happy Days: The Musical, which features Paul Williams's music and lyrics and Garry Marshall's book.  The musical's cast features Charles Swarens as Arnold and Bobby Farmer as The Fonz.  

    Following Happy Days, Hayswood Theatre will present Neil Simon's Rumours.  Auditions for the show will take place Feb. 18 and 19.
