NORTH CENTRAL COLLEGE
Performing Arts With our season coming to an end, I always look forward to the next year in the arts. As North Central College continues with the sesquicentennial celebration being Naperville’s college, I am thrilled to offer you, the patrons of the arts, the best of the best. I suppose you can say this is the year of choice. We bring you the greatest artists at the most affordable prices we can, but to make this even easier on you, we are offering choices. Those choices include artist, venue, and day of the week. We announced our new season at the Legacy Series: Del McCoury Band, Preservation Hall Jazz Band concert on April 16. If you missed it, sorry, but you missed an amazing evening! Pfeiffer was rocking with some incredible music. For those who may not have been here, we have some of those choices I was talking about. For our performing arts series, we will open with the Beach Boys in Pfeiffer Hall and then the choices start. You can either select Manhattan Transfer in the Wentz Concert Hall or Celtic Woman Christmas in Pfeiffer. Next will be Bela Fleck and the Flecktones in the concert hall. See? Multiple venues for the one series. Our two final concerts for that series will be Canadian Brass in Wentz and the Charlie Daniels Band in Pfeiffer. But even with that, we have two performances of the Canadian Brass, so you can pick the time of day that is best for you. Staying with that one series, if you were to select one of the two different series options but were not able to attend a particular show, we will work with you to substitute a different artist of your choice, often at little or no additional expense. To borrow from a well-known series of commercials, but wait, there’s more! In addition to those five, or rather six, concerts for that series, you may want to select Yo-Yo Ma, Bernadette Peters, Herbie Hancock, Air Supply, or The Acting Company, just to name a few. The best of the best. That is what we are bringing to Naperville and DuPage County. And it is up to you to decide who you want to see and how much money you want to save seeing them! It is a very special time here at North Central. Don’t miss all that we have to offer to all patrons of the arts. We’re pulling out the stops this year, continuing with our extremely popular children’s programming and our newest addition, the Cabaret series in the Madden Theatre. Come join us and celebrate North Central being 150 years young. The sesquicentennial at North Central College. 150 Years, a Promising Start.
