Peace Center balances popular returnees, new acts in 2014-15 CINDY LANDRUM | STAFF
clandrum@communityjournals.com If the Peace Center’s 2014-15 season were to be described in culinary terms, it would be a well-balanced meal: a little bit of comedy, a little bit of dance, a large serving of music and a whole heap of nationally and internationally known talent. Dessert is the Broadway Series the Peace Center announced in April, which includes “Once,” “The Book of Mormon,” “Disney’s Beauty and the Beast,” “Wicked,” “Pippin,” “Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella,” and “Kinky Boots.” Tickets for the single-night shows and “Once” go on sale to the general public on Saturday at 10 a.m. Tickets may be purchased online at peacecenter.org or at the Peace Center’s Box Office. Summer hours are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., Saturday from
11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and two hours prior to every scheduled performance.
