JILL O’NEILL Executive Director
It is a distinct honor to welcome you to the 2018/2019 Fall - Spring Season on behalf of the Great Lakes Center for the Arts. We are delighted to continue to offer diverse and world-class events to Northern Michigan at affordable ticket pricing. Earlier this season, we launched our Cinema Series on our 45-foot cinema screen with monthly films that echo our mission. We look forward to celebrating diversity in the arts with the Laureates of the Sphinx Competition and spending an evening in happy-tears laughing to the comedy of Capitol Steps. This Spring, we welcome regional arts organizations, some for the first time and others returning to Center stage, and prepare for the beloved, world-renowned Vienna Boys Choir.
MICHAEL M. KAISER Artistic Director
On March 1, we announce the 2019 Summer Season full of spectacular events across the full spectrum of the performing arts.

CLASSICAL BALLET BROADCAST
*This event is a broadcast offering projected on the Center’s 45-foot cinema screen with theatrical surround sound.
SUNDAY DECEMBER 30 4:00PM ALL SEATS $15
Natalia Makarova’s production of this 19th-century classic ballet brings to life an exotic world of temple dancers and noble warriors. Marius Petipa’s fantasy, set in legendary India, tells the tale of a temple dancer and the prince who loves her but marries another. The famous, moonlit ‘white act’ – The Kingdom of the Shades – is a corps de ballet highlight, as multiple images of the prince’s lost love haunt his mind. The choreography allows two opposing ballerinas to shine, while a bronze idol comes vividly to life in a stunning solo. Throughout, the melody and moods of Minkus’s music perfectly match the fluidity and precision of the classical choreography and the drama of the storytelling.

CAPITOL STEPS
POLITICAL SATIRE
The group that puts the “mock” in Democracy. The Capitol Steps have recorded over 35 albums, including their latest, Make America Grin Again. They’ve been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC, and PBS, and can be heard twice a year on National Public Radio stations nationwide during their Politics Takes a Holiday radio special. No matter who or what is in the headlines, you can bet the Capitol Steps will tackle both sides of the political spectrum and all things equally foolish. The Capitol Steps have performed for the last five Presidents (six, if you include Hillary). The only complaints the Steps seem to get are from politicians and personalities who are not included in the program!

...AN ENGROSSING PORTRAYAL OF A TORTURED CREATIVE ARTIST AND A GRIPPING PIECE OF GOTHIC STORYTELLING.
Tchaikovsky’s most ambitious opera contains some of his greatest music and is a powerful study of destructive obsession. In Tchaikovsky’s intense opera of obsession and the supernatural, Gherman is caught between the woman he loves and a destructive fixation. The Queen of Spades is based on a short story by Pushkin and comes to the Royal Opera House in a new production that has already garnered five-star reviews in Amsterdam. The production is set in 1890, the year of the opera’s premiere. In his study, Tchaikovsky imagines the opera into life as his own story, its characters giving voice to his unfulfilled desires. Aleksandrs Antonenko and Eva-Maria Westbroek head the cast and Royal Opera Chorus, conducted by Antonio Pappano, Music Director of The Royal Opera.

The Violins of Hope concert features works by Czech composers, Pavel Haas, Gideon Klein and Hans Krasa, who lived in the Terezín concentration camp and died during the Holocaust.
