We have a preview, put together just for North Worcester Macaroni Kid fans, with the wonderful upcoming family shows at the lovely Hanover Theatre this fall! My own children are begging to see The Nutcracker again! Did you know that The Hanover Theatre is a not-for-profit organization? If you have been on the fence about purchasing tickets to see several of their shows, wait no more! The family performances they offer are such a great way to teach children about the importance of the arts and to support a wonderful cause.
Congratulations to Andrea C. from Shrewsbury for winning a family 4 pack of tickets for the Odd Squad Live show coming on October 9th at 2pm!
Here is a little more about them. The Hanover Theatre continues to draw over 180,000 patrons annually with world-class performances and headlining acts including Broadway hits (“Les Misérables,” “Jersey Boys”), comedians (Dave Chappelle, Jay Leno, Daniel Tosh), musical acts (Neil Young, Aretha Franklin, John Legend, Donny Osmond) and everything in between (“A Christmas Carol,” Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, Alton Brown). POLLSTAR consistently ranks The Hanover Theatre as one of the Top Theatres in the World. After eight seasons, the award-winning, historic theatre continues to establish its place as a world-class performing arts venue, acting as a catalyst for the economic development of downtown Worcester. The Hanover Theatre’s acquisition of 551 Main Street houses new function space, offices, rental space for a restaurant on the ground floor and The Hanover Theatre Conservatory for the Performing Arts on the lower level.
Worcester Center for Performing Arts, a registered not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, owns and operates The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts and Conservatory. All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.
