ARTS NC State Fall Preview: Mark your calendars!
NC State LIVE
Pioneers in vertical dance performance, BANDALOOP, will be turning the stage on its side at NC State’s newly renovated Stewart Theatre on Sept. 17 and 18.
NC State LIVE, formerly known as Center Stage, is also bringing the circus ensemble A Simple Space by Gravity & Other Myths to campus this November.
University Theatre
University Theatre, NC State’s volunteer student theater will be performing three shows: “Fiddler on the Roof,” “Duck Hunter Shoots Angel” and “Anon(ymous)” this semester.
Gregg Museum of Art and Design
Despite its ongoing relocation and renovation, the Gregg Museum of Art and Design will continue to host exhibitions. Open now through Jan. 4, D.H. Hill Library’s Exhibit Gallery will be home to “Life’s Little Dramas: the Puppies, Proxies and Spirits.” This collection houses a wide range of puppets from different eras and parts of the world.
Crafts Center
Located on the first floor of Thompson Hall, the Crafts Center houses state-of-the-art crafting equipment. Classes are offered for all skill levels and are open to students, faculty, staff and the general public.
Registration for classes opened in early August for everyone and is available to NC State students at a discounted price.
In addition to these programs, the Crafts Center will be hosting the Seventh Annual Pinhole Camera Photography Challenge Exhibition Sept. 16 through Oct. 29. Student winners of the Judge’s Choice and People’s Choice categories will receive a free class at the center. The competition’s registration deadline is Sept. 11 and is open to students and the public.
Stewart Theatre’s Return
This is the first year that Stewart Theatre will be open since the renovations began on Talley Student Union in late 2012. The return to this space is something the ARTS NC State community is excited to celebrate.
“Fiddler on the Roof,” as well as many of the shows brought to campus through NC State LIVE, will be performed in the Stewart Theatre located in Talley Student Union.
Additional Information
Student tickets are always $5. This is something ARTS NC State prides itself on.
Tickets can be purchased in person at the box office located in Thompson Hall, online and over the phone. Students are encouraged to purchase their tickets in advance to avoid sold out shows, but tickets are also available at the door.
More information regarding ticket sales, shows and ways to become involved in NC State’s theater, dance and music departments can be found on ARTS NC State’s website and social media.*
