Elon University Spring Convocation for Honors
Acclaimed Broadway director Hal Prince addressed students April 10, 2008, at Elon University’s Spring Convocation for Honors. Harold S. “Hal” Prince has received more Tony Awards than anyone else in music theater history. His career spans more than five decades and 50 productions, including Fiddler on the Roof, The Phantom of the Opera, West Side Story and Evita. On Thursday, Prince shared his wisdom inside Alumni Gym during an annual program that honors Dean’s List and President’s List students, the faculty, graduate students, the upcoming graduating class and members of the Elon Society. Convocation took a different form this spring, with the 90-minute ceremony interspersed with song and dance from dozens of students in the performing arts program at Elon. The Greensboro Symphony Orchestra accompanied the productions.

Elon University Presents
The Phantom of the Opera
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “The Phantom of the Opera” opened Feb. 14 to a packed McCrary Theatre in the Center for the Arts. It was the largest debut crowd for a theatrical event in Elon University history with tens of thousands of dollars raised for the Performing Arts Scholarship Fund. All seven shows were sold out weeks before opening night, and the department raised just shy of $50,000 in scholarship money through it's advanced ticket sales. Elon was selected by R&H Theatricals, a division of The Rodgers and Hammerstein Organization, as one of six pilot productions in anticipation of the show’s eventual release into the community, regional and school theatrical market.
