Citizen Cope Solo Acoustic Performance
Hogg Memorial Auditorium
Friday, October 10th at 8:00 PM |

Mark your calendars for this intimate solo acoustic performance from one of music’s most poetic souls! On October 10, Citizen Cope brings his unique mix of ‘70’s soul, folk, hip-hop and funk to Austin for one night only at the UT PAC's Hogg Memorial Auditorium.Clarence Greenwood, a.k.a. Citizen Cope, takes snapshots of the world around him, turns them into universal truths and sets them to the simplest of melodies and soul-stirring grooves. Cope’s poignant tunes have been used in movie soundtracks and television commercials, and the song, “Sideways” was produced and sung by Cope on Carlos Santana’s multi-million selling album, “Shaman.” Citizen Cope digs into his three-album catalogue for this intimate solo acoustic performance.

Legally Blonde
Bass Concert Hall
February 3 – 8, 2009 |

It's here, and it's "AN ELLE OF A SHOW" (TIME Magazine). The hilarious MGM film is Broadway's new smash hit musical, and now LEGALLY BLONDE THE MUSICAL is coming to you. Legally Blonde follows sorority star Elle Woods, an underestimated blonde who doesn't take "no" for an answer. When her boyfriend dumps her for someone more "serious," Elle puts down the credit card, hits the books, and sets out to go where no Delta Nu has gone before: Harvard Law. Along the way, Elle proves that being true to yourself never goes out of style. After turning Broadway and MTV hot pink, this “Feel-Good Song and Dance Juggernaut” (New York Magazine) is “The Best New Musical Around!” (WOR) |

Shadow Box
Oscar Brockett Theatre
April 4, 5, 10, 11, 12 at 8:00 p.m.
April 6, 12, 13 at 2:00 p.m. |
|
“The Shadow Box” interweaves the lives of three dramatically different terminally ill hospice patients and their loved ones to give a dynamic, well–rounded perspective of death and dying. They struggle to find meaning in their last moments on Earth, to leave legacies, to reassure themselves their lives were actually worth living. The play shows that even though death is a personal struggle, all human beings are bound together by the same fear of death. It's how each character deals with that fear that separates them. |
