From Ballet to Broadway, the Stars Appear This Season at the PAC

While the Lehman Performing Arts Center's season won't officially begin until October 5, it's not too early to mark your calendar. The new schedule—available online—includes stars like Smokey Robinson (making a return appearance to the Center), Danny Rivera, and Natalie Cole. Tickets are on sale now.

From classic ballets ("The Nutcracker," Nov. 25) to Broadway shows ("Evita," Jan. 13), the season will feature a wide array of performers, including Willie Rosario presenting old school salsa (Feb. 2), legends of Doo Wop Martha Reeves, the Chantels, the Contours, and others (Jan. 19), and the St. Petersburg Ballet Theatre performing Bizet's "Carmen" (April 13). (Click here to see the full season.)

Those who join the "Friends of Lehman Center" membership program receive special privileges, such as first notification of new events, priority seating, backstage tours, and invitations to special receptions. The support received by "Friends" helps the PAC bring both world-renowned and emerging artists to the Bronx.

Special discounts are also built into the new "Create Your Own Series" option. Patrons who select a minimum of three shows receive a savings of 10 percent on the total order—or 20 percent off the total order for six or more shows.

Tickets can be purchased at www.lehmancenter.org or by calling the Box Office at 718-960-8833 (Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., and beginning at noon on the day of the performance).
