Greetings!
Happy New Year everyone! I trust each of you had a wonderful Holiday season.
With the beginning of a new year comes new and exciting prospects for the future. Throughout much of this month, the theatre will take time to catch up on routine maintenance and get preparations underway for the second portion of our season. Christmas decor is removed, floors cleaned and polished, comprehensive checks made on lighting and sound equipment, and mechanical systems inspected. We will host High Point's annual MKL Community Celebration next weekend, then Eumir Deodato kicks off the 2011 portion of our Professional Artists Series on January 29 with a rare live US concert.
Time flies quickly so we'll be working on our 2011-2012 season in the next few months as well. If there are artists or shows you'd like to see at the Theatre, email me with those suggestions. After all, you are my greatest source of inspiration!
We thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you often in 2011.
Sincerely,
Louisa Hart, Director |

In The Spotlight: Eumir Deodato - Live in Concert, January 29 / 8 PM
 Eumir Deodato rocketed up the pop charts, garnering a Grammy, with his 1973 hit, "Also Sprach Zarathustra," better known to his U.S. audience as "2001: A Space Odyssey." From that initial success, he went on to earn 16 platinum records as an artist, arranger or producer, along with U.S. sales in excess of 25 million records. His current discography now totals more than 450 albums, including works with a Who's Who in the music industry, including Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, Bjork and Kool & the Gang, just to name a few.
On Saturday, January 29, Triad music lovers will enjoy a rare opportunity to see this gifted artist and his band live, as part of the Theatre's Progressions series of jazz concerts. Good seats are still available by calling 336-887-3001 or online at www.highpointtheatre.com. Don't worry about the weather...Room & Show packages are available for this show - for your convenience, our box office can assist you with show tickets and book a room for your stay on the night of show at the Best Western, located just half a block from the theatre.
