In this age of constant distraction, the power of live performance is one way to stay truly present in the moment. At a live show, you are pulled into the energy of the crowd. The magic of the lights and sound dazzle the senses. You feel the vitality of the artist right to your core. In every moment, there’s nothing else to think about and no place else you’d rather be. Especially surrounded by the new state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems, recently implemented in the Ruth Finley Person Theater!

Our 2023–24 fall season offers a bounty of powerful moments for every taste and interest in the arts. Among the 28 shows coming to the LBC this season, comedians Matt Rife and Nimesh Patel will have you laughing your cares away. The music of Matteo Bocelli, Carley Pearce, and Teo González will draw you to the edge of your seat—and to your feet! You can escape to your imagination with The World Ballet Series’ Cinderella and Parsons Dance.

You can create happy family memories with Blippi—The Wonderful World Tour and our Family Fun Series’ The Magic School Bus. You can discover new ideas with a lineup of speakers, including astrophysicist Dr. Neil de Grasse Tyson, comedian Molly Shannon, and psychic medium Matt Fraser. Before you know it, the holidays are here, and living in the moment gets even more momentous.
