Since its opening, the Schuster Center has been host to successful shows and continuing this when on the weekend of March 13th, the Schuster center will host the Dayton Philharmonics Orchestra performance of “Britten’s War Requiem” with guest conductor, Keith Lockhart, who has worked with the Boston Pops. Other shows coming to the Schuster center is “Peter Pan,” on the weekend of March 20th, which will be a collaboration of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra and the Dayton Ballet and “Singin’ in the Rain” in the weekend of April 10, where conductor Neal Gittleman will conduct the entire score of the film while it projects on a giant screen above the orchestra.

“The center is one most important things about Dayton,” said David Bukvic, the Director of Marketing and Communications at the Schuster center. “It is part of Downtown Dayton’s renascence and it, along with Victoria Theater, the Oregon District, the RTA bus hub and 5/3 baseball field, not only affect downtown but the Montgomery County region.”
When asked about the future of Schuster center, Bukvic said, “the center will continue to be a touchstone for downtown development and a wide diversity of art forms. It is the performance arts groups and their performances at the Schuster that provide a halo effect that supports downtown Dayton businesses and residences.”
David Bukvic’s final thoughts on the center were, “I like to think of the Schuster as Dayton’s living room.”
