In November two spectacular shows will grace our stage at The Center! On November 6 at 8 p.m. the world renowned Ailey II Dance Company from New York will debut a premier performance at Governors State University. Ailey II has flourished into one of the most popular dance troupes in the country, and takes its art to the community by presenting Master Classes for dance students.

Sometimes it is hard to believe how much activity can come in and out of The Center at GSU in a very short time. This week has been a perfect example of the hectic life of a venue! Today started at The Center bright and early when over 300 attended a regional Transportation Summit at Governors State University. Our house was all spiffed up to host a serious panel presentation with Southland <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/NotesFromTheDirector/~4/FARC6idyzIg" height="1" width="1"/>

Anyone who works in the theatre has to count amongst their favorite moments that magic time when a project that has been in rehearsal for months turns into a magical piece of live theatre. For me that moment came on August 1st when SLATE's production of The Wedding Singer came to life on stage at The Center.
