DOYLESTOWN TOWNSHIP, PA - The Thompson Performing Arts Series continues on Wednesday, August 9 beginning at 7 p.m. at the C&N Amphitheater in Central Park with “Larger than Life” and its salute to the boy band experience.

“Larger Than Life” is known as the No. 1 "Boyband Experience" in the country and is the only act of its kind to have been on tour with NSYNC, O-Town, 98 Degrees, LFO, TKA, among others.

Featuring actual boy band-style singing, dancing, and that iconic pop look. Larger Than Life will take you back in time with the biggest 90s party since the Backstreet Boys shut down Times Square. This is not a jam band, not a musical parody, but a real nostalgic concert experience.
