A Note from Carl Wallnau, Artistic

As we begin our third season in the Lackland Center we asked ourselves one question; how could we make this the best season yet? The answer was to expand the variety of our selections, continue to present world class artists and challenge our discerning audiences (that’s you) to a celebration or music, dance and theatre that crosses all genres and disciplines.
We kick off our season with our curtain up event, ROBERT KLEIN, one of the most respected and venerated comedians working today. Our theatre series will include a revival of Agatha Christie’s classic THE MOUSTETRAP as well as featuring year two of our BLACKBOX SERIES including a return visit by last seasons hit PARALLEL EXIT with a new show ROOM 17B, a Holiday celebration with THE WIZARD OF OZ, Martin McDonagh’s Irish comedy THE CRIPPLE OF INNISHMAN and a world premiere, THE ENGLISH BRIDE.
Our music series will include not only Tony Award winner (A Chorus Line) DONNA McKECHNIE in her one woman show MY MUSICAL COMEDY LIFE, but great musical groups such as THE HOT CLUB OF DETROIT channeling the spirit of Django Rhinhardt (a part of the upcoming JANUARY JAZZ FEST), the wild Celtic musical group LA VENT du NORD, jazz great RIO CLEMENTE, the BAROQUE ORCHESTRA of NJ and many, many more!
Dance is well represented with THE NEW JERSEY BALLET, the CAROLYN DORFMAN DANCE COMPANY as well as NIMBUS DANCE and once again we will celebrate contemporary dance with DANCE WEEK at CSC. We have also added a new program this season, The FAMILY FUN SERIES, consisting of great acts on a Saturday afternoon designed for the whole family. Our performers this year include MICHAEL DuBOIS SOLO CIRCUS, Magician BRAD ROSS and the CATSKILL PUPPET THEATRE with the musical THE LION’S WHISKERS.
If we sound excited here, we are! As I said, there is something for everyone and I have barely scratched the surface. We offer great packages of Flex Passes for any of our events as well as special subscription offers for certain programs. We are giving you, as a previous subscriber, first crack at the best seats in the house. Come see why Centenary Stage continues to be celebrated for its world class productions. We have a seat reserved just for you!
Sincerely,
Carl Wallnau
