A SWEET END OF SUMMER FOR GREAT WOODS
|
Summer comes to a close at the Great Woods Center for the
Performing Arts this weekend. It is a sweet ending since the
15,000-capacity site -- finishing its second year -- expects a
nearly 10 percent increase in attendance over last summer's figure
of 613,000, according to spokesperson Kathy Rochefort.
Last year's total number of pop and classical shows was 72 (55
of them pop), while this year's number is 75, including 57 in the
pop category.
