An Update From Allison Larena, President & CEO: October 27, 2020

Dear Friends,

On October 10, we wrapped up our series of Drive-In performances with two terrific shows at the Rockaway Townsquare Mall. We were thrilled to share the joy of live entertainment with thousands of you through this seven-show series at Rockaway and Fosterfields Living Historical Farm.

The pandemic has presented unique challenges for our industry, and requires creativity and innovation as we seek new ways to fulfill our mission of bringing the arts to our region.

MPAC was the first major concert venue in the state to stage a Drive-in Concert. On June 25th, a beautiful summer night, over 160 cars drove to Fosterfields Living Historical Farm to enjoy the first concert most people could attend since March.  John Ginty and Friends put on an awesome show and for one night, everyone had the chance to exhale and remember the joy of being at a live music event.

Our summer drive-ins continued at Fosterfields with incredible concerts by The Weeklings and Sensational Soul Cruisers and Stand-Up Comedy performances by Tom Cotter, Johnny Lampert, Kerri Louise, Moody McCarthy, Rodney Laney and Marion Grodin.

The series concluded with two fabulous rock shows by Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes and Almost Queen at the Rockaway Townsquare Mall.

It truly took a village working behind-the-scenes, and we want to thank all who helped made this wonderful series possible.  We extend our deepest gratitude to the entities and individuals below.
