FOX CITIES P.A.C. PRESENTS SERIES
This year, a new initiative brings together amazing touring artists in two distinct series that make up one great Season Ticket Package.
The Boldt Arts Alive! Series returns, bringing cultural, adventurous and passionate performances to the main stage from all over the world. All of these performances will take place in Thrivent Financial Hall.
The new Spotlight Series brings an intimate, interactive experience to the forefront, making the beautiful Kimberly-Clark Theater its home. This space is perfect to highlight cabarets and create an atmosphere for audiences to immerse themselves in the performance and to place a spotlight on extremely talented performers.
As a Fox Cities P.A.C. Presents Season Ticket Holder, patrons can select four or more performances from either of these series to make up an eclectic, unique and personal lineup to enjoy this season!
"The Boldt Arts Alive! Series is about bringing the best performing artists from the United States and around the world to the Fox Cities. This year we are excited to utilize the Kimberly-Clark Theater as home to the Spotlight Series, adding performances by equally talented artists to offer a continually more diverse lineup," Van Laanen said.
