Jackson Community College
Events & Entertainment 
Welcome Theater Goers
Greetings and welcome to Jackson Community College! We are pleased to offer you a fine season of entertainment events during this 2007-08 season. The performing arts enrich us all. It is one of the ways that JCC connects with the larger community and helps to broaden the cultural opportunities available in the area. Jackson Community College exists to serve the community in a variety of ways. With outstanding educational programs to help students earn associate degrees, certificates, credentials, prepare for transfer or meet individual needs, to being a community center for events such as these great performances, your community college is a valuable resource. The Potter Center welcomes over 28,000 to its productions each year, drawing residents from the South Central Michigan area, as well as visitors from around the region. Visitors also enjoy our college productions, as well as Center Stage Jackson, the Jackson Symphony Orchestra, Michigan Shakespeare Festival and more. Businesses, civic groups, families and individuals reserve our spaces for their own special events. If you have the opportunity, visit our campus and see the exciting new developments. New Campus View student housing is now complete, and the William Atkinson Hall library and information technology center will open Fall ’07. JCC Jets sports are back in full swing with young people again donning the maroon and gold. I hope that you enjoy our entertainment series, and don’t miss the great things going on at JCC! Daniel J.

Welcome to the exciting 2007-08 season of entertainment at the Potter Center at Jackson Community College. Get ready to laugh with the new Potter Center comedy series this fall, featuring three riotous plays! “Defending the Caveman” is a funny and insightful look at the ways men and women relate to one another, on Nov. 2 & 3. Have fun in class with the laugh-a-minute “Late Nite Catechism,” which involves the audience in the action, on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1! Get a humorous look on the lives of women with “Hormonal Imbalance,” on March 14 & 15. These will be presented in the Michael Baughman Theatre on main campus. A full season of acts is scheduled for the Sheffer Music Hall, with music, comedy, drama, spectacle and more! Laugh to comedians like Bill Cosby, “Weird Al” Yankovic, and the finalists of NBC’s “Last Comic Standing.” Enjoy musical artists like country performer Clint Black with his Up Close and Personal Tour, the Oak Ridge Boys Christmas, and the Ten Tenors. We have the musical version of “Peter Pan,” and several highly entertaining stage shows such as Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy, the New Shanghai Circus, Blast! and Stepcrew. For the family, we will present “A Christmas Carol” and “Charlotte’s Web.” There is one opening for another act in our schedule, so stay tuned. I would like to thank all of the individuals who support the arts in this area through ticket sales and donations. An active, vibrant arts and entertainment program helps to enrich us all in the community. Cindy Allen |
