EXCITING NEW ADDITIONS TO THE PEACE CENTER CAMPUS

THERE’S MUCH TO LOOK FORWARD TO

AS WE HEAD INTO THE 2025-2026

BROADWAY SEASON.

This year marks the Peace Center’s 35th anniversary, which we’re commemorating with the launch of two new innovative performance and event spaces— the Coach Music Factory and The Mockingbird.

You’ll see we’ve made great efforts to preserve the historic significance of both while updating them as functional, contemporary venues. This expansion celebrates the old and the new, acknowledging the importance of our past while we evolve as the cultural hub of the Upstate. The Peace Center campus is as unique as Greenville itself, full of life, full of stories, full of vibrant creativity.

Thank you all for supporting our mission with your love of great Broadway shows. As subscribers, donors, and single ticket buyers, you’ve helped us continue to bring the best year after year. Enjoy this milestone season, and I look forward to seeing you enjoy our growing performing arts campus.

Following a sold-out Greenville premiere, the multiple Tony Award®winning musical MJ is making a victorious return to the Peace Center.

Created by Tony Award-winning Director/Choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ goes beyond Michael Jackson’s singular moves and signature sound, offering a rare glimpse at the making of the 1992 Dangerous World Tour.

Don’t miss your chance to experience the show that’s electrifying crowds on Broadway; in cities across North America; London’s West End; Hamburg, Germany; and Sydney, Australia once again at the Peace Center.

The critically acclaimed bestselling novel WATER FOR ELEPHANTS comes to “thrilling, dazzling” life (Time Out New York) in a unique, spectacle-filled new musical! Hailed as a Critic’s Pick, The New York Times calls it “stunning, emotional, heart-filled and gorgeously imaginative.”

After losing what matters most, a young man jumps a moving train unsure of where the road will take him and finds a new home with the remarkable crew of a traveling circus, and a life—and love—beyond his wildest dreams. Seen through the eyes of his older self, his adventure becomes a poignant reminder that if you choose the ride, life can begin again at any age.

SPAMALOT gallops back to the Peace Center in a hilarious new revival direct from Broadway. Featuring a book and lyrics by Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle, the original production won three Tony Awards® in 2005, including Best Musical.

The side-splitting musical comedy is lovingly ripped off from the film classic, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and has everything that makes a great knight at the theater, from flying cows to killer rabbits, British royalty to French taunters, dancing girls, rubbery shrubbery, and of course, the Lady of the Lake.
