Season Ends with Arlo Guthrie ... Another is set to begin

I arrived at work this morning to this note at the top of my inbox:

My wife and I have been to shows on Broadway, in Chicago and London, and many local venues. Shows of all kinds and variety. The Arlo Guthrie concert was one of the most enjoyable nights we have spent in a theatre. Thanks so much for bringing these types of shows to a venue where the audience and artist can feel connected and is right here at home. We have tickets for two shows next season and maybe more. The Bloomington Center of the Performing Arts has added so much to the quality of life here in Central Illinois. It makes special nights like the Arlo Guthrie concert possible.
--Gary Schwartz

The show was a great way to end the 2007-08 season. Classic songs, great humor, a night people won't forget anytime soon.

Were you there? Write me (jaalberts@cityblm) with your experiences at the Arlo Guthrie concert and I'll post your review in the Blog.


THE 2008-2009 SEASON



And now with just 110 days to go until the Fab Four open the season, we're already looking ahead to 2008-2009. Advance season ticket sales are incredibly strong with dollar figures for the end of May this year already ahead of our dollar totals for the end of July last summer. That said, if there are shows you want to see, get your seats early before the good ones are all gone.

As always, you can order them at http://www.artsblooming.org/

While you're at it, let us know what shows you're looking forward to most. My picks are posted here. You can tell me more about what has you excited by sending an email to jaalberts@cityblm.org.
