$31-million performing arts center progresses in partnership between Aurora Theatre and City of Lawrenceville
Steadfast in their investment and dedication to the region, Aurora Theatre and the City of Lawrenceville today announced construction progress on the highly anticipated Lawrenceville Performing Arts Center (LPAC) – the soon-to-be expanded home of Gwinnett’s only professional theater, Aurora Theatre. Construction and expansion of the facility began in June 2019 and will continue in phases until the scheduled completion in spring 2021, including structural, mechanical and electrical design updates of the four anticipated venues.
Located across the street from the Gwinnett County Historic Courthouse, the new 55,000 square-foot space will house a 525-seat theater; Cabaret; indoor and outdoor civic spaces; and rooms for office and educational programming. The project has resulted in numerous jobs for those deemed essential workers – an unforeseen yet advantageous impact on the local community during these challenging times.
“Art is vital to nourishing community. Its need is even more apparent under the circumstances we are all facing. We are grateful that the construction on the campus expansion never stopped, creating jobs and bringing hope for the future of our county,” said Ann-Carol Pence, Co-Founder of Aurora Theatre. “I sincerely hope this innovative partnership between our non-profit organization and the City of Lawrenceville will serve as a model for other cities across the nation. This city understands that we must invest in the foundation of the arts together, so that the arts truly serve the community in ways that inspire, educate and heal our people."
Cranes were erected and precast panels arrived to the site in the beginning of May. These deliveries are expected to continue over the next weeks, building out the rest of the buildings including the Main Theatre area. City officials have ensured that the buildings’ infrastructure will retain the architecture of the historic square in downtown Lawrenceville.
This unprecedented partnership between Aurora Theatre and the City of Lawrenceville serves as a model for other city and county governments to partner with arts organizations, which serve as the heartbeat of local communities. Performances at Aurora Theatre are currently suspended temporarily due to coronavirus concerns, but the theater continues to engage with audiences through digital programming alternatives. Aurora Theatre is eager to serve the community with live performing arts again!
Under the artistic leadership of Co-Founders and Artistic Directors Anthony Rodriguez and Ann-Carol Pence, now in its 24th Season, Aurora Theatre produces professional live entertainment to suit everyone’s taste. Aurora Theatre is home to over 850 events each year. Theatrical productions are comprised of the biggest Broadway plays and musicals alongside exciting contemporary theatre. Additionally, Aurora produces concerts, stand-up comedy, children’s programs, metro Atlanta’s top haunted attraction Lawrenceville Ghost Tours, as well as Atlanta’s only professional Spanish language theatre, Teatro Aurora. Aurora Theatre is a world-class theatrical facility with two performance venues. Nestled on the square in historic downtown Lawrenceville, Aurora has FREE attached covered parking and is surrounded by restaurants and shops. Aurora Theatre has garnered numerous accolades highlighted by recent achievements that include a 2016 Governor’s Award for the Arts & Humanities, winner of five 2019 Suzi Bass Awards, Creative Loafing’s “2010 Best Theatre Company,” Georgia Trend Magazine’s “2011 Best Places to Work in Georgia,” Atlanta Business Chronicle’s “2012 Best Places to Work,” Atlanta Magazine’s “Best of Atlanta 2018” for Best Inclusive Programming, Gwinnett Chamber’s 2018 Inaugural Moxie Award for Outstanding Organization, Georgia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s 2014 President and CEO Award for Excellence in Arts, and Gwinnett Chamber’s 2015 IMPACT Regional Business Award for Hospitality.

If there’s one thing the arts industry is famous for, it’s resilience. Historically, when times have been tough, artists have come together to show the world that there is hope, no matter the circumstances.
As COVID-19 has changed the arts scene dramatically, the Atlanta theatre community has made it possible for us to see our local artists in action anyway. Whether it be reading children’s books, making dance master-class videos, or even recording entire performances, our city’s local thespians are far from taking a covid-cation.
Today’s point of connection with our theatre friends comes from the Georgia Ensemble Theatre, with "Oh, Mr. Faulkner, Do You Write?"
The one-man show based on the life of William Faulkner has become a Southern storytelling classic. John Maxwell has toured with his very funny and deeply moving production for over twenty years to twelve other countries and most of the United States. It's a powerful evening of theatre and literature, entertainment and enlightenment!
Georgia Ensemble Theatre requests patrons consider a suggested $5 per person donation to offset the cost of this performance. Contribute to the Roswell company by clicking here.
About "Oh, Mr. Faulkner, Do You Write?"
The play features recollections of Mr. Faulkner's days in Hollywood writing screenplays for Clark Gable and Howard Harks. The piece includes stories about his family both humorous and touching, an amusing and highly insightful question and answer session with an imaginary English class, and much more. The production ends with an offering of The Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech he delivered at Stockholm.
Written by John Maxwell and Tom Dupree and performed by John Maxwell

In celebration of the 5-year anniversary of the landmark Supreme Court ruling, allowing for protected rights of gay marriage, and in serendipitous timing of the landmark ruling by the Supreme Court this week citing that it is illegal to discriminate against someone as part of the LGBTQ community in the workplace, Out Front Theatre Company will host "Standing on Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays" as a livestreaming broadcast on Friday, June 26.
This virtual screening of the plays is at no cost via Zoom streaming, allowing guests to view and enjoy in the comfort of their homes.
"Standing on Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays" is an evening of nine short theatrical works that highlight the joys and tears of married life and relationships. With a unifying theme of same-sex marriage, this collection of short plays and monologues is the work of several playwrights, thus giving different perspectives and voices to a universal theme. Each of the performances will be done by various actors and streamed from those actors' homes.
"These short plays showcase a wondrous jubilee of same sex marriage, and run the gamut from touching and tearful to hilarious and heartwarming. We are thrilled that we can bring this event honoring equality right into peoples' homes, and even though we may not be together physically we know that, as a community, we can still celebrate," said Paul Conroy, founder and artistic director of Out Front Theatre Company.
An A-list lineup of writers offers unique takes on the moments before, during, and after “I do.” Witty, warm, and occasionally wacky, these plays are vows to the blessings of equality, the universal challenges of relationships, and the often hilarious power of love.
"Five years after The Supreme Court made their historic ruling making marriage equal across the country, there are still many steps to take before everyone in our country is treated fairly and equally. It's important to remember and celebrate milestones like this one, even though there is much progress still to be made," said Conroy. "Today's Supreme Court ruling is another step in the right direction to provide safety and welcoming to the LGBTQ community, and the timing to share these plays after the ruling and during Pride Month in addition to the anniversary date of Obergefell v. Hodges is a fantastic way to celebrate."

Media praise for "Standing on Ceremony"
“CEREMONY puts a human face on a hot-button issue and delivers laughter and tears rather than propaganda."
Backstage
“All you have to do is listen, shed an occasional tear and laugh a lot. There is something for everybody...STANDING ON CEREMONY holds a magnifying glass to the highs and lows, joys and fears, courage and silliness, of people bucking trends and making history. It’s a fine evening, heartily recommended.”
NY Observer
“A feel-good show celebrating gay marriage. The unifying theme of same-sex marriage gives this collection its strong identity. The individual plays don’t share the same perspective or speak in the same voice. Which keeps things interesting.”
