Cassettes and CDs have come and gone, digital downloads had their heyday, concerts have become multi-media events, and conglomerates have formed. In the midst of industry upheaval, we’ve continued to be the heart of our communities, offering not only world-class live entertainment but a constant gathering place for friends and families. Home is where your heart is. We’re pleased to welcome back many performers who consider our venues not just a stop on tour but a home away from home. Lee Brice, Melissa Etheridge, Jake Owen, Boz Scaggs are just a few of the many returning performers under the tents this summer. We hope to become a summer home to some of the new faces of the 2018 season including Chris Janson, Little River Band and Peter Cetera. We’d like to thank our patrons for keeping their money where their heart is.

  • Five Comedians. One Stage. Endless Possibilities
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Five Comedians. One Stage. Endless Possibilities. Worcester, Mass. (April 13, 2017) When five favorites on the Boston comedy scene get together for one night, anything can happen. Don’t miss a night of side-splitting laughter and great stand-up comedy when Lenny Clarke, Steve Sweeney, Christine Hurley, Orlando Baxter and Dan Smith bring the Worcester Comedy Blowout to The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts, Friday, June 23 at 8 p.m. Tickets are on sale now. Lenny Clarke: Veteran Boston stand-up comedian Lenny Clarke has an oddly calibrated act. His material and his perspective is very much in an old-school Don Rickles vein, but his attitude is very much that of a quick-witted young comic. This contrast comes wrapped in a conversational, deceptively genial delivery, with just brief moments of clowning. Clarke is also unpredictable in a very good way on stage — you don’t know where he’s going to go next. It’s never the same show twice. He’s a unique and funny performer … truly worth catching. — NYC Review Steve Sweeney: Born in Charlestown, Steve Sweeney is a legendary Boston comedian known as a master of dialects and character voices. With his famous Boston accent and great insight into human nature, Steve is so thoroughly Bostonian that he merits his own stop on the MBTA Green Line. --more-- Steve learned his craft at the world famous Ding Ho Comedy Club, where he performed with Lenny Clarke, Denis Leary, Jay Leno, and more. Well-rounded and seasoned, Steve has kept audiences laughing for years.
