IUP's Season Finale: 'Songs for a New World' at Gorell Recital Hall

Indiana University of Pennsylvania's Music Theater will end its season with a performance of the Tony Award-winning musical, 'Songs for a New World' by Jason Robert Brown. The show will take place at the Gorell Recital Hall on the second floor of Sutton Hall, with performances on May 1-2, 2024, at 8:00 p.m.

'Songs for a New World' is a song cycle, meaning it does not have a traditional narrative. Instead, it features a collection of songs that explore a variety of human emotions and life experiences. The musical includes different musical styles and themes such as life, love, and decision-making.

The performance will include a live trio band that aims to enhance the emotional impact of the show. Notable songs like 'Stars and the Moon' and 'Christmas Lullaby' are part of the repertoire, known for their intricate melodies and lyrics.

Tickets are available for advance purchase online or by phone through the Lively Arts office. There will be no in-person sales before the event, but tickets may be purchased at the door one hour before the show if available. This method ensures a more efficient ticketing process.
