Arizona Centennial Program ~ At 7:30pm, they begin with a performance of Mr and Mrs Wyatt Earp, with Terry and Wyatt Earp, in celebration of Arizona's past as well as the future Experience the mystique and the story that Hollywood never told. After a short break, they welcome LOCA ROSA, celebrating the 100th birthday of Arizona with emotional melodies, thrilling history, and tall tales of little-known immigrant communities. For example, in 1880, Jewish brothers Jacob and Isaac Isaacson arrived in Tucson from Latvia. They began working as peddlers between Tucson and a town in Mexico that would later become the city of Nogales. One of the most famous ragtime songs was written about Arizona and published in the year of her statehood. The words were penned by a couple of Jewish Tin Pan Alley songsmiths. The Russian folk song, "Proshchai" ("Farewell"), was written by a homesick Russian immigrant about the beloved city of Moscow he left behind. The history of Conversos (Spanish converts to Catholicism) link cultures of Mexican-American families to Jewish communities in Arizona.
