Founded in 1978, NJCS soon emerged as the premier vocal chamber ensemble at the Jersey Shore. The group generally performs in smaller, more intimate spaces because of the unique bond chamber music creates between the performers and audience. More recently, NJCS has begun to expand its audience beyond the Jersey Shore to all of New Jersey. NJCS has performed at the American Choral Directors Association conven- tions in Baltimore and Philadelphia, the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., and Alice Tully Hall in New York City. The ensemble's sensitive artistry, imaginative concert themes, and eclectic repertoire have become their signature. 4-29: Concert (check website for location), 8:00 PM 5-1: Concert (check website for location), 4:00 PM PAPER MOON PUPPET THEATRE 123 First Avenue, Atlantic Highlands (732) 775-0290 www.papermoonpuppettheatre.com The Paper Moon Puppet Theatre has been produc- ing shows for over twenty years.
