Vital Express Center Box Office Set to Open
Anticipating brisk ticket sales, the Vital Express Center for the Performing Arts will begin selling individual tickets at 10 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 4. The 2005/06 Season Guide has been mailed to residents of the Santa Clarita Valley and all post office boxes.
Series tickets, which are available in four different packages, have been on sale since mid-July. Each package highlights different shows that provide an opportunity to see performances throughout the year. Three of the packages include a combination of commercial and academic shows, and a low-cost package features academic shows only. Series tickets may be purchased prior to Aug. 4 by returning the order form in the Season Brochure via fax or mail. The form is also available for download on the Center's web site at www.VitalExpressCenter.com.
While series ticket sales will continue until the opening of the season on Sept. 16, purchasing series tickets prior to Aug. 4 assures priority seating.
There are three convenient ways to purchase tickets beginning Aug. 4:
- Select your own seats online by going to our web site at www.VitalExpressCenter.com
- Call our Box Office at (661) 362-5304
- Visit the Box Office at the Student Center, Room S-127
There are two box offices on the College of the Canyons campus; the main box office, located in the Student Center in room S-127 at College of the Canyons, will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday, from Aug. 4 through Oct. 31. To purchase series and single tickets for performances, please go to this location. The box office located near the entrance of the Vital Express Center is only open on performance days and will open three hours before the start of each show.
“We are truly looking forward to the upcoming season,” said Karen Schmidt, theater manager. “There is a wide choice of entertainment at a variety of price points that make arts experiences at the center possible for everyone.”
The season kicks off with The Temptations on Sept. 16 and concludes in May with a spring concert by the Choir of the Canyons.
Community, commercial and academic shows, such as “Little Shop of Horrors,” the Soweto Gospel Choir, “The Velveteen Rabbit” and more are available throughout the 2005/06 season.
