Dear FRIENDs
I am delighted to highlight our new season at Zoellner Arts Center,
which is infused with beauty, international arts and storytelling. Hear world
musicians Vieux Farka Touré, Idan Raichel and Mnozil Brass. Share stories
with Academy Award-winning actor John Lithgow in Stories by Heart and
fine Irish actors in A Couple of Blaguards. Watch Lehigh students bring
stories to life in theatre and music productions of Martin McDonagh’s
The Pillowman, a dark comedy from Broadway, and composer RimskyKorsakov’s enchanting tale Scheherazade.
Enjoy Grammy Award-winning artists Aaron Neville and Ramsey Lewis.
Be amazed by Beauty, an intriguing modern dance by Jane Comfort and
Company, Lightwire Theater’s child-friendly The Ugly Duckling and don’t
miss Moscow Festival Ballet’s incomparable Sleeping Beauty.
