Tickets to Center Stage's MARLEY On Sale 12/1

Starting Monday, Dec. 1, single tickets will be available for Center Stage's world premiere of Marley, the first original musical based on both the life and music of cultural icon Bob Marley.

With a book and direction by Center Stage artistic director Kwame Kwei-Armah, Marley will run from May 6 to June 14, 2015 to close Center Stage's 2014/15 season.

To celebrate the occasion, a special discount will be offered online only from 12 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on Cyber Monday, Dec. 1, to those purchasing tickets through Center Stage's website at centerstage.org.

Marley explores a pivotal period in the singer's life. In 1976, Bob Marley finds himself the target of an assassination attempt. Shaken by this act of violence in the country he loves, Marley leaves for London where he spends nearly two years in self-imposed exile. Chronicling the events surrounding this earth-shaking moment, Marley tells the story of a man transformed into one of the 20th Century's greatest musical icons.

Through an agreement with Blue Mountain Music and Tuff Gong Pictures, Marley will feature music composed by Bob Marley-including, among others, songs from Exodus, Kaya, and Rastaman Vibration, which were written during the period in which the production is set.

The full cast and creative team for Marley will be announced at a later date.
