The Robert H. Jackson Center will be hosting the Princeton Triangle Club, which will be showing various parts of this year’s show along with several other significant pieces, on 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 18.

With this year marking 135 years of performing and commemorating some of Princeton’s finest traditions, the club is eager to show off the hard work and efforts of the many students that coordinated this performance.

The performance will take place inside of the Jackson Center’s theater. The performance will contain four pieces from the club’s most recent show, Aisle Be Damned. In addition to some of the performances from the newest show, the group will also be putting on a range of other historical material related to the triangle.

Hans Kriefall, show director and chairman of the group’s board of trustees, provided insight behind what led the group to come to this area for a performance. Kriefall noted that much of the coordination was done by Kendall Crolius. Crolius is a former chair of the board and a resident of Chautauqua County. Upon hearing of the tour leading the group through the nearby area, Crolius was eager to bring the talents of the students for the community to see. Kriefall noted Crolius’s significance to the group, having been a member before graduating in 1976 and also being one of the early women in the group.

Kreifall stated that the triangle club focuses on making a new musical for each touring season, with the students being largely responsible for much of the creation. The students begin writing in the spring and summer months, with the performance then going into rehearsals with a professional team in September, according to Kriefall. After the show had the initial premier at the McCarter Theater at Princeton in November, Kriefall noted that the group then began to take the show on the road starting in January.

“We’re doing the opening number from this year’s show, we’re doing one of the production numbers, and we’re doing two other smaller songs from the new production,” said Kriefall. “So that’s going to be four of the 21 numbers that are going to make up the Ding show, and then the other 17 are triangle classics going back as far as East of the Sun from 1932.”
