A Neil Simon Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy and the “a-ca-exciting” celebration of a cappella returns to the Lesher Center this March!

On March 13 and 14, the top collegiate a cappella groups from throughout the US head to Walnut Creek for Kaiser Permanente’s College Notes, a thrilling, only-at-the-Lesher Center event celebrating the perfect harmony of bright minds and bright voices. Hosted by Pitch Perfect’s Deke Sharon, this year’s line-up includes a stellar line-up of award-winning groups: Belmont’s Pitchmen, Northeastern’s Pitch Please, Tuft’s Beelzebubs, UCLA’s Scattertones and Vanderbilt’s Melodores. Always a sell-out event, tickets are on sale online.

On March 31, Center REP celebrates the 35th Anniversary of the opening of Lesher Center with a 35th anniversary revival production of Neil Simon’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning heartfelt comedy, Lost in Yonkers. This multi-award-winning memory play transports us to a small apartment above a candy store in Yonkers, NY in 1942. Buy tickets online.
