Back by popular demand, Bishop Townsley's Jubilee was the most talked about event of the 2011 season. Now audiences can see this entertaining, high octane group of performers in action when they return to the Centenary Stage for a night of song and dance on Saturday, February 8th at 8 p.m in The Lackland Center.

The Jubilee's repertoire includes African Chants, Negro Spirituals, and Jubilee Songs as well as Jazz, Pop, Broadway and Hip Hop music of today. Jazz favorites like Duke Ellington and modern popular music are mixed together in a dynamic show that has the audience on their feet screaming for more.

Coinciding with Black History Month, concert-goers can follow the historical journey of the jubilant music at the heart of Blues and R&B, going back to the Civil War era to today. This Jubilee celebration includes an array of singers and a live orchestra in a musical revue audiences won't want to miss.

Tickets for Bishop Townsley's Jubilee are $25 for adults, $22.50 for seniors/students and $15 for children under 12, when purchased in advance. Ticket prices increase $5 when purchased at the door.
