What connection does it make to your life?
What do you most love about the difference the arts make?
In the 2008-09 Center Stage Series, celebrate arts that enrich, nourish, and affect our lives at all ages and in many different ways.
Homer's The Iliad
The comic laughter of Capitol Steps, the breathless leaps of Diavolo, the thoughtful analysis of the Iliad, and the jubilant song of the Harlem Gospel Choir provide a canvas to expand our sense of the world.
The Center Stage Series aspires to provide seasons that will excite a wide variety of attendees with an array of experiences—young and old, playful and thoughtful, comfortable and new.
Join us this year to experience your own connections and create new meaning within a larger world—yet do it here in a place close to home with nicely priced tickets, free parking, and opportunities to meet the artists throughout the season!
Finally, artistically committed sponsors in Northeast Iowa help make it possible to bring these valued performing arts to this community.
Vanguard Jazz Orchestra
We offer a most appreciative ovation to them, our subscribers, and every single audience member!
Everyone is invited with our warmest welcome. Let the spirit of the arts inspire you!
