By Tiffany Helmly [email protected]

Everyone knows where Paulson Stadium and the RAC are, but the Perform- ing Arts Center is more of a mystery. The PAC is fairly new here on campus and many people haven't made it out there yet. It is across from the Forest Building and the Technology Building on the corner of Chandler Road and Plant Drive. Last year's inaugural season for the PAC was a huge success. Many talented artists traveled to perform at one of the newest additions to Southern's campus as well as many fans. Some of the Lonesome River Band fans traveled from Chicago to hear them play. The director of the Performing Arts Center, Dagmar Bardo, is just as excited'about the upcoming season. This year is sure to be filled with just as much talent. The Broadway Series will start off with "Seussical the Musical" in December. "The Cat in the Hat," "Horton the Elephant," "Gertrude McFuzz," and many other favorite Seuss characters join together to save the Jungle of Nool. " 'Seussical' is a host of inventive characters and allows playgoers to re- discover Seuss' gently sly political messages and playful cadences embedded in a broad entertainment format," said The Seattle Times. In January, the Aquila Theatre Company's production of "Othello" will hit the stage. Shakespeare's masterpiece explores the destruction of a noble man through racial hatred, jealousy, and mistrust. Othello, a Moor and mercenary for the Venetian army, secretly marries Desdemona, the daughter of a high- powered senator. Othello's trusted friend, Iago, becomes jealous of Othello's conquests and begins his revenge by questioning Desdemona's fidelity. The classic "The Sound of Music" arrives in March. The true story of a widowed father of seven and the young Maria who left the abbey to care for them and their flight from Nazi rule into the Austrian Alps captures audiences' attention with a memorable score including "My Favorite Things," "Sixteen Going On Seventeen," "So Long, Farewell," and many other favorite tunes. The Concert Series will start off with Cornell Gunter's Coasters and The Special Photos Platters in January. These fifties stars have delighted fans for years. The Platters had four number one songs, sixteen gold records, and were made famous for enjoy the performances of both Native Trails and The Peking Acrobats as well. songs such as "Only You," "The Magic Touch," "I'm Sorry," and "The Great "Deeply Rooted is spiritual fervor, physical prowess, and sheer, unalloyed Well known books are also brought to the stage: "Amelia Bedelia 4 Mayor! & Pretender."
