SHOW DATES/TIMES AND SCHOOL MATINEE INFORMATION

Note from the Founder

In the midst of North Shore Academy of the Art, Inc.’s grand 10 year celebration, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on where it all began: sitting in a dark theatre, watching a musical.  It was my husband’s and my first outing after our daughter was born, so I was a bit nervous to be gone for any length of time. Nonetheless, we sat back to enjoy as the curtains were opened.

The musical was “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” The producers of the musical set out to entertain their audience, and maybe to do a bit more….The talents on stage made the audience laugh. They made the audience cry. Some left smiling. Some left humming the tunes. At least one left inspired — Inspired enough to share thoughts  with others.   Then others began to imagine… 

Together, and 10 years later… there is another team of producers, another cast of talented actors on stage, in a dark theatre… where the curtains will open…On the weekend of March  25th, right here in Cedarburg, NSAA will be producing “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” in celebration for what that show helped create 10 years ago. We chose this show because it has a great message, wonderful music and it inspires. We chose this musical to  entertain… and to do maybe a bit more… 

Besides our shows, we have other offerings that do “a bit more”: our art classes, music lessons, dance teams, writing workshops… the list goes on. The opportunities abound at chances to imagine, to create, to discover… 

One never knows what will foster a dream, a thought or an action. I didn’t know that night when I sat down in the theatre that I would leave 90 minutes later with an urge that wouldn’t be still, that wouldn’t relent, until it was acted upon.

At NSAA, we hope that everyday, in some way, in some capacity, at least one person walks away imagining…And so what does that mean for the next 10 years of NSAA?  At least 3,650-dreams born into the world, relentless, urging inspiration…I hope you’ll join me “in the theatre” as the curtains open.  

Here’s to the next decade of inspiration. To your dreams, coming in loud and clear…Imagine. Discover. Create. Dream. That’s North Shore Academy ofthe Arts, Inc. I thank you, as always, for your continued support. 

Sheri M. Bestor, Founder, President North Shore Academy of the Arts, Inc.

Composer and performer Kurt Bestor brings his popular Christmas show to Wisconsin with a performance at Cedarburg’s beautful Performing Arts Center.

For only the second time, Bestor returns to his home state to perform the unique holiday arrangements that have made him a crowd favorite throughout the west for almost three decades.

Though he’s known for his expert piano, trumpet, harmonica playing as well as many other instruments, Bestor is just as adept with his engaging onstage banter.  

The Kurt Bestor Trio with award-winning guitarist Michael Dowdle and talented multiinstrumentalist Daron Bradford will take the audience on a musical journey from Christmas’s past to today’s holiday favorites in a myriad of styles – from jazz and new age to world and classical.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to enjoy one of the most entertaining and talented musicians performing today.
