PAUL ANKA

History will be made on Saturday October 27, 2012 when the doors to the spectacular new state-of-the-art Arcadia Unified School District's Performing Arts Center officially open with "An Evening With Anka.". So it is only fitting that they open with a bang courtesy of one of the most iconic singer/songwriters of all time....the incomparable Paul Anka!

With a legendary career that spans more than four decades, Paul Anka is undoubtedly one of the world's most prolific and beloved singer/songwriters of any generation. Named

Billboard Magazine's 21st most successful artist to date, Anka is in good company alongside such music greats as Elvis Presley and the Beatles.

A testament to the importance and permanence inherent in the arts, Anka has amassed a long list of number one songs and hits, many which he will perform at the benefit concert, including the ever-popular "My Way," "Diana,""(You're) Having My Baby" and "You Are My Destiny" among countless others.

Anka's two most recent albums - Rock Swings and Classic Songs, My Way - ingeniously featured songs originally created by some of the biggest rock performers of the day - as well as other established artists across several genres. The twist: Paul Anka of course did the songs "his way."

THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

Upon your first step into the Performing Arts Center, you are immediately transported to a world of possibilities and opportunities where valuable lessons are learned, talent is fostered and the majesty of the arts is shared, cultivated and alive. It is a phenomenal new venue that students, the community, and the arts, can call home.

Built on a foundation of promise and purpose, the premiere 40,000 square foot, 1200 seat, high-concept state-of-the-art facility, serves as an inclusive hub for all of the performing arts.

The modern glass and brick architectural center boasts a performance stage that accommodates 200 musicians, variable acoustics and orchestral shells and professional lighting and sound systems as well as an additional Black Box theater with a separate control room and flexible seating that can host 125 guests.

Additional distinctions include a sound attenuated orchestra room that contains instrument storage, practice rooms and a music library, a professional dance studio with sprung wood floors, comfortable dressing rooms, scene prop and costume storage space and back of the house stage crafts areas. The superstructure is further adorned with a dramatic internal courtyard, lobby and outdoor pavilion areas.

AND YOU!

"An Evening With Anka," begins at 8:00pm and will end with a thoroughly entertained and nostalgic audience, who by attending, have contributed to students, the arts and the community at large for decades to come.

The exclusive benefit concert is presented by the Arcadia school district and the Arcadia Performing Arts Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, established to support the Performing Arts Center.

We look forward to you joining us for this special evening at The Performing Arts Center...Your Home For The Arts!
