So to celebrate that $500 - $999 centennial, we are bringing you Sinatra Forever, direct from Las Vegas.

They had just finished a classic Christmas song when they all rang out with “Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown!” That was it! I was so excited to see this live! Well, David is back again this Holiday Season. We also have two performances of the Canadian Brass with its holiday show, something I have been trying to book since we started bringing shows to you. And how about one of, if not the greatest flamenco troupes in the world, Compañia Flamenca José Porcel! The best of the best in the greatest performing arts facilities in the area. HEAR WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT And that’s just the beginning of what North Central College has to offer. Combine that with the greatest staff, the most generous sponsors and Friends of the Arts and, of course, the greatest audiences we could hope for, and we once again have something truly special to bring to you this season. We hope to see you frequently throughout the coming months. Welcome back and enjoy! WENTZ CONCERT HALL
