So is it “live” as in “living” or “live on stage”?

Regardless of how you pronounce it (even though it is the former), “Live In The Moment” is the theme for the 2019-20 Highmark Subscription Series of shows coming to the Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center next season. The announcement was made in front of a raucous student-majority crowd, who saw a presentation that instead of using an announcer in previous years, relied solely on live performance, soundtrack, and a visual screen to make the announcement.

The 2019-20 Subsrciption Series includes:
Matilda: The Musical (October 4-20)
Clue (November 8-17)
Disney’s Frozen Jr. (November 14-24)
The Nutcracker (December 12-15)
Romeo & Juliet (February 14-23)
Swing! (March 13-15)
Carousel (April 24-May 3)
Memphis: The Musical (June 12-21)
