"Iconic music, cutting-edge dance and powerful storytelling" highlight the latest season of Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center in Galloway Township.

“This season’s richness lies in its variety and extraordinary talent,” PAC Director Anjanette Christy said. "At the PAC, we celebrate the power of live theater and the magic it brings into our lives. Our audiences breathe life into our performances, making every show a memorable adventure. I believe this year’s lineup will engage, entertain and inspire our patrons.”

Here’s a detailed look at some of the schedule’s highlights:

True tales of 'Sex and the City' author

"Sex and the City" author Candace Bushnell comes to the PAC stage with her new one-woman show of the "True Tales of Sex, Success and 'Sex and the City."

It's described as equal parts dramedy and memoir,

The show takes the main state at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 26.

Bushnell will take the audience on a storied journey to finding herself and her voice that was documented in her own 1996 anthology and eventually serialized in the iconic television show featuring six-time Golden Globe-winning actress Sarah Jessica Parker.

Audience members are encouraged to dress to impress in their best couture!

A cocktail reception in the Art Gallery with free appetizers and a cash bar stocked with cosmos will be available for those 21 years old and older.

‘So Good! The Neil Diamond Experience’

Broadway, television and motion picture actor Robert Neary will perform Neil Diamond’s biggest hits — including “Sweet Caroline” and “I’m a Believer” — at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 8.

In addition to performing hit songs for “So Good! The Neil Diamond Experience,” Neary will tell the audience the stories behind the songs and the 83-year-old singer-songwriter who originally performed them.

The first professional company in the world dedicated to the dance tradition of stepping comes to the PAC at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 16.

The Blind Boys of Alabama

Six-time Grammy-winning gospel group The Blind Boys of Alabama will perform at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 1.

The Blind Boys of Alabama have a career that spans more than 70 years.

The living legends are known for “crossing multiple musical boundaries” with their performances that encompass both traditional and contemporary gospel music.

‘Moon Mouse: A Space Odyssey’

Lightwire Theatre will bring a classic story of a triumphant underdog ... or mouse ...  to life through electroluminescent artistry at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 23.

In "Moon Mouse: A Space Odyssey," Marvin the Mouse is on a quest to become popular.

He goes on an adventure through space and finds himself on the surface of the moon. Audiences will join him and his homemade rocket as he meets “a strange cast of misfit creatures, learns of infinite peril and views awesome beauty.”

Tito Puente Jr. and his Jazz Ensemble

Inspired by his father’s profound impact on Latin music, Tito Puente Jr. and his jazz ensemble will perform at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 5.
