Newman Center Presents season offers dance, music and more

(Press release)

The Robert & Judi Newman Center for the Performing Arts at the University of Denver has announced the 2024-2025 Newman Center Presents season to launch in September. Having hosted thousands of performances by Newman Center Presents, the Lamont School of Music, the DU Theatre Department and hundreds of local and national organizations, the Newman Center launches its 22nd season in September of 2024.

The Newman Center Presents series has become nationally known for its mix of high-caliber and inspiring artists, many who would not appear on a Denver metro area stage without the presence of the series. “We are thrilled to present a lineup of brilliant artists and unforgettable experiences” shared the Newman Center’s Executive Director Aisha Ahmad-Post. “Our season celebrates diversity and fosters cultural exchange, offering unique opportunities to explore new perspectives and broaden horizons.”

Six subscriptions are available for the 2024-25 season including the Dance Series, Jazz Series, Global Roots Series, Director’s Choice 9, Director’s Choice 5 and Mix 4.
