I was just reading the morning Trib when I noticed an article about Centre East in Skokie, housed at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts complex on the corner of Waukegan and Golf Rds. in Skokie. Apparently, it’s in need of a second cash infusion from local government to make payments and stay afloat.

Stay afloat? People! Are you not taking advantage of such a convenient entertainment option?

OK, OK - so I haven’t either – but I have an excuse – I can’t find a sitter. What’s yours? Centre East offers such a diverse lineup, from ballet, to musicals, to comedy. There are family options, date night fare, and such. Coming up, we’ve got the Joffrey Ballet, Thodos Dance Chicago, and the Tommey Dorsey Orchestra. Think about it - no hassle parking, no I-94 traffic, lots and lots of great dining choices, and you can get a few errands done as well - Old Orchard is right across the street! Check them out at www.centreeast.org and keep this gem of a theatre around!
