A New Season at Great Lakes Center for the Arts

Godspell, Jersey Boys, Motown, and more

By Jillian Manning | March 5, 2022

Five years ago this summer, the Great Lakes Center for the Arts (aka the Center) in Bay Harbor opened their doors. Since then, they’ve seen more than 75,000 visitors and presented 150 events—no small feat given two of those years were eaten up by the pandemic. They’ve also worked with thousands of K-12 students through their Next Gen and Dorothy Gerber Strings Programs. (Check out the Fascinating People bio on Dr. Rachel Sytsma-Reed to learn more about Next Gen!) The Center is celebrating the milestone with 11 events between May and August, ranging from a production of Godspell to The Doo Wop Project (which features stars from Jersey Boys and Mowtown: The Musical) to a performance by Lyle Lovett and his Large Band. Tickets went on sale to donor subscribers on March 1 and will be available to the public in the coming weeks. More information can be found at greatlakescfa.org.
