Cascia Hall Performing Arts Center Proudly Announces
Our 2010-2011 Season
This year’s season is going to be a fun and interesting tour through the gamut of human emotion. Cascia Hall, once an all-boys boarding school, is opening the season on October 6 with a drama about an all-girls boarding school, The Children’s Hour.
Next, our middle school students will be sharing the life lessons they have learned - and we may have forgotten - including how to annoy your little sister and the proper way to beg for a puppy in How to Eat Like a Child.
We are bringing back a Tulsa tradition for this year's all school Christmas musical: Miracle on 34th Street opens on December 3rd.
The Upper School comedy in February, The Nerd, is a hysterical mind game where the stereotypical hero is anything but stereotypical.
Course Acting Strikes Back features our middle school again with several vignettes that will stretch their acting chops and will be a sure crowd pleaser.
Finally, the culmination of the entire season is our upper school musical, Les Misérables, presented by The Lunn Family Educational Trust.
You won’t want to miss a single show this year. See you at the theatre!
Tickets at the door are $10.00 and $15.00. The balcony level is open to students at no charge but cannot be reserved. Balcony tickets will be available at the lobby box office on a first come first served basis one hour prior to the performance.
Season ticket packages and group rates are also available.

Beethoven in the Big AppleA Non-School Production 10/14/2010 - 10/14/2010 7:00PM Michael Torke Corner in Manhattan, for String Quartet Gustav Mahler Quartet for Piano and Strings Samuel Barber Summer Music, for Wind Quintet Ludwig van Beethoven Septet in E-flat for Winds and Strings, Op. 20 Our first concert brings together three composers with ties to New York City with Ludwig van Beethoven’s remarkable yet seldom-heard Opus 20 Septet. This juxtaposition brings out both the modernity of Beethoven’s early style as well as the timelessness of the three newer works. Michael Torke’s recent minimalist string quartet Corner in Manhattan evokes the rhythms and flow of daily life in the big city, while Barber’s pastoral and nostalgic Summer Music recalls the lost daydreams of childhood innocence in small-town America. Also featured will be Mahler’s only contribution to chamber music, his haunting Piano Quartet movement. Finally, as one of his earlier works, Beethoven’s Septet. Single Tickets: $15, $5 Student/Seniors Season Tickets - 4 Concerts: $50 ($10 Discount) Seating is General Admission.
