“The Greensboro Symphony Orchestra will play its first concert in the new Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts in April,” writes Dawn Kane in Tuesday’s (12/1) Greensboro News and Record (NC). “The symphony announced Tuesday that it would perform a reimagined season at the new downtown performing arts center from April 29 through Aug. 7. It then will run its 2021-22 season from Aug. 28, 2021 to June 5, 2022. The 3,023-seat, $93 million Tanger Center had been scheduled to open in March, but the COVID-19 pandemic put all performances there on hold. It has yet to open. The symphony’s news release followed the Tanger Center’s announcement that ‘Beautiful: The Carole King Musical’ again has been postponed. It was originally scheduled for May 2020, and most recently rescheduled for June 2021.” The Greensboro Symphony’s first Masterworks concert in the new space in April 2021 will be conducted by Gerard Schwarz and Music Director Dmitry Sitkovetsky; in May 2021, the orchestra’s first pops concerts at the Tanger Center will feature Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in Concert; and the Greensboro Symphony Youth Orchestra Side-by-Side Concert is planned for May 2021.
