Upcoming Events
Right in the Eye
March 3rd, 2023 @ 10:30 am and 7:30 pm
Right in the Eye (En plein dans l’œil) is a multimedia show composed of 12 films by Georges Méliès, a pioneer of the Cinema and a wizard of special effects.
On stage, three virtuoso musicians play some fifty different instruments, including rare and unique ones, breathing fresh impetus into these cinematographic gems.
In a subtly-staged setting, in perfect symbiosis with the imagery, the musicians transport us in an inventive production, performed both onstage and onscreen, that reflects the creative genius of Méliès. For more information about this group please visit their Website.
A Chorus Line
March 17th, 2023 to March 26th, 2023
Set on the bare stage of a Broadway theater, the musical is centered on seventeen Broadway dancers auditioning for spots on a chorus line.
A Chorus Line provides a glimpse into the personalities of the performers and the choreographer, as they describe the events that have shaped their lives and their decisions to become dancers.
A Chorus Line marks the second consecutive year of artistic collaboration between the two schools, after the launch of the Joffrey-NJCU partnership which allows students the opportunity to pursue a B.F.A. in Dance.
