THIBODAUX, La. – Tickets are on sale for Nicholls State University’s College of Liberal Arts’ performance series “Vive Les Arts.” The five-show series will include musical performances and theater productions for the community to experience the talent and creativity of the University’s students and faculty.
Performances at the Mary and Al Danos Theater will include the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra on Sept. 20, a jazz concert on Nov. 12, a Christmas sing-along on Dec. 7 and a production of “Arsenic and Old Lace” by the Nicholls Players on March 21. The series will culminate in the Student Union Cotillion Ballroom on April 14 with an evening of music and fine dining, featuring student and faculty performers.
“This area has a rich tradition of cultural engagement, and we have a great deal of talent on this campus, both in faculty and students. With this series, we are looking to revive the number of cultural activities that existed prior to Covid-19 and devastating hurricanes, while also showing off the wonderfully renovated Mary and Al Danos theater,” said Michele Theriot, interim dean of the College of Liberal Arts.
Proceeds from this series will support the College of Liberal Arts’ performing arts initiatives. Tickets are $225 and include admission to all performances and the meal. There are opportunities for sponsorship of this event as well. Please contact janet.marcel@nicholls.edu with any questions.
