Nostalgia-inducing unforgettable hits! The internationally acclaimed hit show “The Simon & Garfunkel Story” is bringing its national tour to the Givens Performing Arts Center on the campus of UNC Pembroke on March 28 at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets range from $35 to $45, with children’s tickets available for $18.
This immersive concert-style show brings to life the unforgettable music and inspiring journey of the GRAMMY-award-winning folk-rock duo Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. From their humble beginnings as Tom & Jerry to their meteoric rise as one of the best-selling music duos of the ’60s, the show chronicles their legendary career — culminating in their historic “Concert in Central Park” reunion in 1981, where more than 500,000 fans gathered to witness the magic.
Featuring a full live band, breathtaking harmonies and stunning visuals — including state-of-the-art projection, photos and original film footage—this show is a must-see for music lovers of all ages. Audiences will be transported back in time with nearly 30 iconic hits, including:
• Mrs. Robinson
• Cecilia
• Bridge Over Troubled Water
• Homeward Bound
• The Sound of Silence
With more than 100 million albums sold, 10 GRAMMY Awards and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Simon & Garfunkel’s poetic lyrics and timeless sound made them one of the most influential folk-rock duos of all time. Their legendary "Bridge Over Troubled Water" album won Best International Album at the Brit Awards, and in 2003, they received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
