New World Arts Will Announce Historic Season Ten with free Launch Party and Concert

GOSHEN, Ind. — New World Arts will announce its historic Season Ten on January 11, 2008 at 8 p.m. with a Launch Party in Downtown Goshen. The evening, a free event that is open to the public, promises free drinks and hors d'oeuvres, plus the music of Grand Rapids, Mich. band Ben and Bruno.

Running through the end of 2008, New World Arts' Season Ten will feature shows that emphasize the past, present of and future of the theatre itself, as well as the community in which it sits.

"In choosing a group of plays for our monumental Season Ten, I wanted to both respect the past of New World Arts as well as look towards our future growth," said Artistic Director Laura Gouin. "I also wanted to choose a season that created dialogue about our current world events. When we treat our global community as adversaries, we create a world of distrust, dishonesty, and disrespect. It is my hope that Season Ten will help us all to realize that whether it's in our hometown or the world, we are a community."

In addition to announcing the season and audition opportunities, New World Arts will also announce its full year of theatre and film festivals, concerts and gallery openings.

New World Arts is especially proud to be bringing the musicians of Grand Rapids' Ben and Bruno to Goshen. Storytellers in their own right with a penchant for combining music with visual art, Ben and Bruno represent the diverse and multidisciplinary approach of the theatre produced at New World Arts. The band has released four albums during the last three years, been involved in multiple collaborative releases, and have stirred up major followings in Grand Rapids and Portland, Ore.

"Over the course of a mere four years, Ben and Bruno have transcended from basic musicians to organic, urban 'myth-makers,'" said Daniel Palmer, Art Director at New World Arts. "Seeing them open for artists like Breathe Owl Breathe and Julie Doiron has given us an appreciation for the scope of their talents. I do not think New World Arts has ever brought such nuanced musical sincerity to our stage."

The Season Ten Launch Party at New World Arts is scheduled for January 11 at 8 p.m. While guests are welcome to stop by at any point during the event, New World Arts highly recommends arriving at 8 p.m. The party is free, open to the public, and welcomes all ages. For more information about the Launch Party, call (574) 975-0311 or go online to www.newworldarts.org. New World Arts is located at 211 S. Main Street in Goshen, Indiana (parking lot and entrance are located at the back of the building, accessible from South Third Street).

Founded in 1998 as New World Players, New World Arts seeks to expand the boundaries of human potential through live theatrical experiences that instigate dialogue and encourage growth among artists and audiences alike. We believe that collaboration, risk-taking, play and promoting new work are essential to fulfilling this mission.

Located at 211 S. Main Street, New World Arts produces a yearly theatre season and hosts occasional visiting ensembles, musicians and visual artists. For more information, call (574) 975-0311, email info@newworldarts.org, or visit www.newworldarts.org.
