Welcome!

We are delighted to have you join us at The Palace during our 2018-2019 season! This fall we’re pleased to bring you some thrilling entertainment.

Arts and Culture make good cities great and we are proud to have a facility like The Palace to present premier entertainment so close to home.

We’d like to extend our gratitude to our season sponsors: Co-Communications, SL Green, the Whittingham Family, and Harman—the “official sound of The Palace Theatre.” Our sponsors are the backbone of our theatre.

We greatly appreciate the continued support from these wonderful sponsors.

This fall we have a jam packed schedule with entertainment for everyone. From music, comedy and family entertainment, we’ve got everything covered.

THE PALACE Theatre for the Performing Arts 7 Show Information

Music City Sessions: Everette Friday, Sept 7 | 8:00pm

Like the great American bands that came before them–new Broken Bow Records duo Everette doesn’t follow trends. Instead, the guys of Everette write what they live, weaving gritty tales of struggle and heartbreak alongside fun-loving stories of escapism and mischief. Often their songs are written while touring– sometimes during sleepless nights as an odometer tracks the miles or on a day off in a dingy motel room off the beaten path–but always organically and always from the heart.

Everette’s brand of is filled with swampy harmonicas and bluesy guitar licks mixed with a knack for melodic hooks not unfamiliar to fans of the 80s and 90s. Citing diverse influences ranging from Tom Petty, The Eagles and Randy Travis to Ray Charles, Michael Jackson and John Mayer, Everette’s honest and relatable music exudes a crossover appeal that would have fans singing along at Bonnaroo as well as at CMA Music Fest.

Everette often describes its brand as “bonfire music” because of its communal nature, which relates directly to the Country . “It’s the same thing we love about Country music and Country radio,” says Brent.

“Just like everyone’s involved at a bonfire jam,” says Anthony. “When we’re on stage we don’t want any separation between us and the audience. We want our shows to be an experience. We write songs about us, but they’re really about everyone.” atHome Magazine’s A list awards Wednesday, Sept 12 | 5:30pm

The A-list Awards celebrates the best in interior design, architecture and landscape design in Fairfield County. Winners are selected by a panel of nationally recognized judges, all experts in their fields. The event features an awards presentation plus cocktails, hors d’ouevres, and networking with some of the area’s top designers, architects and landscape professionals, and builders along with at home readers and design enthusiasts.

8 www.PalaceStamford.org Show Information iLuminate Friday, Sept 14 | 8:00pm

Come with us on an action-filled journey of light and sound as we join a clique of twenty somethings who thrive to the beat of life in a city of glowing colors and heart-pounding musical tempos.

The town’s Cop is our narrator. He is a swift Bboy who keeps the peace with agile flips and grounded steps. Ali, our featured gal, is a beautiful hip-hop dancer that is happiest among her dance community, especially Starlight, her BFF and ‘70s queen of funk. Hoping to impress Starlight is our man with the freshest musicality, Househead. He always has the crew’s back, so it’s not good to be on his bad side. Darius, a sly yet highly charged character, is Ali’s ex-boyfriend who (not so peacefully) tries to win back Ali’s heart.

Our hero Jacob is a shy, young artist with an out-of-this-world secret–a magical paintbrush with the ability to turn his artistic imaginings into living, breathing reality. While he’d like nothing more than to lock himself in his apartment with his paintbrush and his easel, he’s somehow managed to find himself in love with Ali. While she loves him too, she often has to beg him to come out dancing.

Our story starts on the fateful night that Jacob finally follows Ali out clubbing. As feared, his dance moves fall flat, despite encouragement and direction from his group of friends. Poor Jacob takes to the sidelines, sullenly watching his love in the arms of better dancers than himself. Especially Darius, who is quite the show off. In a moment of desperation, Jacob decides to use his magic paintbrush to create amazing Robots and a whimsically dancing Crony to win back his girlfriend’s attention. Big mistake.

While the friends cheer on Jacob’s impressive new tricks, Darius has eyes only for that paintbrush. He wants it and has no qualms about using violence and trickery to get his hands on it. Before long, Jacob, Ali, and their gang of friends are in serious trouble. Darius’ every thought crawls into reality, bent on destruction and chaos. With magic and power on his side, Darius creates a special portal and takes Ali away with him into another world, securing the passage with a coded lock.

Jacob’s Robots try to crack the portal’s code but cannot figure it out. How will Ali be saved and the paintbrush be returned to Jacob?! Can YOU help us unlock the portal? Our only chance lies in the hands of one willing audience member!

Music, art, and the technological magic of iLuminate bring you a story of adventure and romance conveyed by array of dance styles from contemporary to popping to breaking expressed through a glowing visual design. All this, perfectly choreographed to popular and classic music by artists like Michael Jackson, Bruno Mars, James Brown, , Chris Brown, LMFAO, The Wanted, and Sam Smith.

Casting Crowns Saturday, Sep 15 | 8:00pm

Casting Crowns is made up of seven Christ-followers committed to sharing the gospel with the world through music and ministry. The local church has been the base for Casting Crowns’ music since their label debut release in 2003. With more than 10 million records sold and the title of Billboard’s top-selling act in Christian music since 2007, it’s still where the music is created. Mark Hall and his bandmates–Juan and Melodee DeVevo, Megan Garrett, Brian Scoggin, Josh Mix and Chris Huffman–continue to work in ministry in their respective churches.

The local church is the heartbeat of the band and the songs are an outpouring of that. The Very Next Thing, Casting Crowns’ latest offering, is a collection of intimate songs as well as upbeat, fresh sounding tracks with impactful lyrics centered around identifying and acting on what’s right next to you.

Casting Crowns has produced some of the most compelling songs of this generation. Songs like “Voice of Truth,” “East to West,” “Lifesong,” “Until the Whole World Hears,” “Courageous” and “Thrive.” On The Very Next Thing, the band continues to encourage and inspire believers with songs that help strengthen their relationship with God.
