North Carolina will have a new live entertainment theater like no other. This venue is specifically designed to present the biggest shows on tour. The Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC) puts you close to the stage, with no seat further than 135 feet. The DPAC will feature world-class performers, spacious seating, state-of-the-art sound and lighting and convenient parking. DPAC allows you to experience live performances in an entirely new way. The new venue is slated to open in December 2008. Season Tickets are currently on sale.
After years of discussion and planning, the design phase of the DPAC was completed in February 2006. Construction began in September of 2006 and will finish in November 2008. A 10th anniversary production of Rent will begin the season next January, followed by Fiddler on the Roof in March, Legally Blonde The Musical in April and The Color Purple, which closed on Broadway Feb. 24th, 2008, after 910 performances, in May. Meanwhile, the long-running smash Wicked, which opened on Broadway in late 2003 and has been touring the continent since 2005, has been confirmed as the main attraction for the 2009-2010 series.
The excitement and anticipation for the Durham and surrounding communities continue to grow as the project nears completion. You can check the progress of the construction at View the Skanska USA DPAC webcam

"We want you to know how much we appreciate all that you did to make the sale of our house happen, and so quickly! We have never worked with a more dedicated Realtor - we felt that we were your priority and that you bent over backward to make everything go smoothly. Thank you so much for the time, resources, and care you put into us. We will certainly highly recommend you to anyone we can! Lisa & Mike Carboni Jodi and her team were professional from the moment we met them. When we saw the brochures she designed for our home, we were amazed at the color and the format. They were top notch. Jodi kept us posted Arnold & Fern Rothman
throughout every step of selling our home. Every phone call was returned immediately. If she was out
of the office with a client, her assistant Jeff would contact us. It was very apparent they had total
communication throughout the process; Jeff is extremeley in tune with everything that is going on.
Jodi sold our home in 5 weeks! Her exposure in the realty world seems far greater than any realtor.
Being extremely detailed oriented sellers, we realized Jodi was so competent that we left most of
the process to her; she was truly one step ahead of us. This was the most stress free sale of a home
we have ever been through. Jodi also got us more for our home than we were going to settle for. We highly
recommend Jodi and her team; using any other realtor in our opinion would be a big mistake!
“We interviewed five agents before choosing you. We were incredibly impressed with your presentation. We were not getting an agent...we were getting a team. You kept every promise you made. We were confident that through your extensive systems our home was well marketed to Realtors and buyers. Your brochure on our home was gorgeous. You helped put our house in the best light with the use of your interior design specialist. You had us under contract with a back up offer quickly and for more money than we imagined. Thank you for everything. Your teamwork, professionalism and knowledge of the business put you over the top.”
Richard and Cami Gilman Previous Owners of 125 Cedar Lane Farm, New Hill
“Sue and I were very pleased with the results achieved after listing our house for sale with you. The house sold within days at our asking price with a back-up offer on the table. We believe that these results in a large part were due to your advice for preparing our house for sale and the activities that you undertook to market the house to other realtors and potential buyers. We could not ask for better service before, during, and after the sale than that we received from you and your team Thank you for all that you did.
”Tom and Sue Covalla Previous Owners of 8400 Sterling Bridge, Chapel Hill
“We are very grateful to Jodi and her Team for helping us sell our house on the terms owe wanted after only one week. The marketing plan and preparation of our house for showing were done beautifully, and up until closing every time I asked “Please, take care of this,” they did. Great job!”
