MPAC Announces 2015/2016 Season

Tony-winning performer Kristin Chenoweth officially kicks off the Mayo Performing Arts Center 2015-2016 season with a performance on Friday, September 11 at  8 pm.  It is one of over 150 events to take place at MPAC from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016.

Tickets go on sale to the public on Monday, June 15 at 9 am. (Events in July and August are already on sale)

Other headline acts include syndicated talk show host Wendy Williams (Sept. 12), Bob Newhart (Oct. 24), Melissa Etheridge (Oct. 1) and Sesame Street Live (Sept. 22).

As in prior years, MPAC boats a strong lineup in all performance genres, including jazz, classical, theatre, dance, world music and family programming.
