PAC to unveil multiple new shows during member appreciation event June 9

The Performing Arts Center at Kent State University at Tuscarawas will announce multiple shows for its 2026-27 season during a member appreciation event June 9 at the Performing Arts Center.

The event will begin at 7 p.m. with a formal presentation followed by a reception in the lobby. The evening is free and open to Performing Arts Center members.

The newly announced performances will be part of the center’s 16th season.

“We are deeply grateful for our member’s generosity and commitment to supporting the work that we do,” said David Mitchell, general manager of the Performing Arts Center. “The financial support from our members is the bedrock on which thousands of amazing, shared experiences are built each and every year. We invite everyone to become a PAC member and help us to provide access to the arts to everyone in our community and beyond.”

Performing Arts Center members receive benefits including priority early access to tickets, discounted tickets, reserved parking, invitations to special events and half-priced Summer Movie Musical Series tickets. A portion of each membership also is tax deductible.

Memberships are available year-round, but the deadline to purchase a membership that includes access to the June 8 member appreciation event is June 2.

Memberships may be purchased in person at the Performing Arts Center box office, online at kent.edu/tuscpac or by calling 330-308-6400. The box office is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
