“It amazes me how many people in Morgan County have never seen a live performance before attending one of our shows,” said Janice Lindboe, President of the Board of Premier Performances of Morgan County. “Then again, given the drive to Indianapolis or Bloomington, plus the hassles and price of parking and the price of the ticket itself, I guess it’s not that surprising after all.” Premier Performances concludes its 15th season of programming Tuesday, April 6, with the Harry James Orchestra appearing at Martinsville High School. The group has recently confirmed its schedule for 2010-2011 (see sidebar).
Since its inception, the goal of Premier Performances has been to bring a variety of quality, affordable stage shows to Morgan County. Simultaneously, Premier Performances has had great success with an outreach program, arranging for their talent to visit Morgan County schools during the day to provide special exhibitions and question and answer sessions that introduce the artists’ crafts and give students better insight into the arts.
