WHITNEY MORSE on
The Sharon®L. Morse
PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
Dear Patron of the Arts,
Welcome to The Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center!
This year marks a very special milestone—10 years since The Sharon first opened its doors. What began in 2015 as a bold dream has grown into a vibrant home for live performance, rooted in the adventurous and artistic spirit of my grandmother, Sharon L. Morse.
Over the past decade, we’ve been honored to earn your trust, show by show, standing ovation by standing ovation. Whether you’re here tonight to experience a beloved Broadway tour, a favorite artist, or something entirely new, know that every performance has been thoughtfully curated by our passionate team of artists and arts administrators.
As we celebrate our first ten years, we’re also stepping into an exciting new chapter: The Sharon is now proudly powered by Significant Productions, a registered nonprofit dedicated to creating meaningful, memorable arts experiences in our community. With this new foundation, we’re not only preserving what makes The Sharon special, we’re building toward a future filled with bold ideas, diverse stories, and even more opportunities to surprise and delight you.
Thank you for being part of this journey. We’re so glad you’re here. Enjoy the show, and here’s to the next ten years of discovery, connection, and applause.
See You at The Sharon, Whitney Morse

Thank you to our Vibe Setters and anonymous donors.
Legendary Hollywood Writer and Stand-Up Comedian Marty Nadler and his son Charlie hit the stage as a truly unique stand-up comedy duo! Marty started out as a comic and actor and went on to write on classic television sitcoms including Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, and The Odd Couple. As an actor you may have seen him in Pretty Woman, Runaway Bride, and Valentine’s Day. Charlie is a touring headliner and writer in his own right, and performs in clubs, theaters, festivals, and colleges around the US and beyond. The evening ends with an engaging question & answer session where the audience can ask Marty & Charlie all about working in showbiz and with each other!
Great theatre requires talent, passion, and the support of our community. The Villages values the power of art and recognizes Significant Productions’ role in enriching our lifestyle. Join them, as we have, in ensuring that live theater continues to thrive.
