'Rigoletto' by the NJ Association of Verismo Opera – Friday, February 6 at 7:30pm. The NJ Association of Verismo Opera returns with another Italian libretto. Rigoletto is a three-act opera by Giuseppe Verdi centered on a promiscuous duke, a hunch-backed court jester and his daughter, whose love affair with the duke leads to tragedy.  Originally led by Metropolitan Opera luminary Lucine Amara, the New Jersey Association of Verismo Opera, a nonprofit organization, has delivered a rich, grand opera experience for performers and viewers for more than 30 years.



'Forever Motown: So Good for the Soul' – Friday, February 20 at 7:30pm. "Forever Motown" will take audiences down memory lane with hits such as "My Girl," "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and "Dancin' in the Street". Performed by Broadway stars and former members of Motown bands The Jones, The Marvelettes and The Main Ingredient, "Forever Motown" has been described by CBS News as "clearly the best Motown review to date."



LauraB, presented by Mid Atlantic Arts – Friday, February 27 at 7:30pm. Singer-songwriter LauraB will bring her take on traditional Andalusian folk music. Hailing from Spain, LauraB and her all-female quartet will present songs from the artist's personal project, elevated through delicate arrangements, subtle instrumentation and deep cultural connections.

Peking Acrobats – Saturday, March 21 at 7:30pm. World-renowned gymnasts, jugglers, cyclists and tumblers the Peking Acrobats will bring their gravity-defying show. The Peking Acrobats have executed daring maneuvers and technical prowess for more than 30 years.
