Grunin Center for the Arts presents CeCe Teneal's Divas of Soul

originally published: 09/02/2025


(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- Grunin Center for the Arts presents CeCe Teneal's Divas of Soul on Saturday, September 13, 2025 at 7:00pm. This spectacular celebration of thirty years of chart-topping music from artists like Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, and more has wowed audiences worldwide.

Take a ride on the "Midnight Train to Georgia" over "River Deep, Mountain High" while award-winning vocalist CeCe Teneal delivers you the "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" you deserve in DIVAS OF SOUL, a one-of-a-kind concert event! The show features hits from the Disco Era (“Ring My Bell,” “Best of My Love”) to Broadway (“And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going”) and Pop (“What’s Love Got to Do with It,” “I’m Every Woman”).

An award-winning songstress in her own right, Ms. Teneal has been nominated for four Independent Music Awards and claimed the title for 2011 Best Gospel Song (“I Heard You Prayin’”) and 2011 Best R&B Album (Train from Osteen), as well as 2018 Best Soul/Funk/Fusion Song (“Danger”). 

She was chosen as the halftime headliner for the 2019 Citrus Bowl, and in 2022, Mayor Buddy Dyer and Mayor Jerry Demmings proclaimed September 17th as Annual Cece Teneal Day in Orlando and Orange County, respectively, to celebrate her twenty years of arts and entertainment contributions.

Tickets range from $36-$42 and are available for purchase online  or by calling 732-255-0500.  The Grunin Center is located on the campus of Ocean County College at College Drive in Toms River, New Jersey.
