Previous Week's Speaker: Centre Stage

Dan Carter the Artisitic Director and Director of the School of Theatre from the Penn State University College of Arts and Architecture and Centre Stage spoke to us about their new season and their new home in the new Penn State Theatre at the corner of Beaver and Allen downtown. Cheri Sinclaire, the marketing director attended too.

PCS is a professional theatre arm of the School of Theatre. This summer they are doing 3 plays: Broadway Bound, I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change; and The Taffettas.

President Spanier wanted to do something like this theatre to integrate town and gown. The theatre has 150 seats, has state of the art lighting and sound. Citizens Bank and the Woskob family made significant contributions to the facility. Woskob gallery will house various aexhibits of art.

From noon-1:00 P.M. during the summer there will be music held at the new theatre.

The ticket office is open from 10:00 a.m. until 6:00 P.M.Tickets for all but Football at Penn State can be purchased here.
