HUNTINGTON -- Five-time Grammy-Award winner Billy Joel and legendary choreographer Twyla Tharp brought their national tour to Huntington on Friday night as many community members got to enjoy the Tony-Award winning musical "Movin' Out."

The musical hit the stage at the Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center as part of the Marshall Artists Series.

It made its debut on Broadway in 2002 and includes a cast of about 30 dancers and musicians.

The show is a story of life-long friends through two turbulent decades that changed the world forever from the post World War II idealism to the collective unrest during the Vietnam War.
