AC4TA Presents

Our 2026-2027  Series Season

Things look a little different this year!  You talked – we listened!  We divided our Center Series into three different packages – a performing arts package of 6 performances, a tribute package of four performances, and a theatre package of four performances. You can purchase one, two, or all three packages and still get to keep your seats!

Do you currently have season tickets? Maybe a Pick-4?  You have first dibs on reserving your seats for this new season, but you have to act fast!  Deadline is April 2!

New subscribers can purchase packages starting April 6th.  Give us a call & we’ll help you through the process!

An extra perk:  If you purchase at least one package, you can add individual shows from other packages to make your own season!

Individual tickets for all shows on sale May 1.

One more perk!  By purchasing at least one package, you  can add tickets to our community theatre’s summer production of “Little Women: the Broadway Musical” for $2 off per ticket!

Call (218) 736-5453 or stop by our box office (Monday – Friday 11am – 2pm)
