| WICKED |
 March 1-12
Mainstage at Proctors
WICKED, the Broadway sensation, looks at what happened in the Land of Oz...but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another girl, born with emerald-green skin -- smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships...until the world decides to call one "good," and the other one "wicked."

On The Stage
Mainstage - He has starred on the hit comedy show Blue Collar TV and, in 2012, he reunited with Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy on the Them Idiots Whirled Tour, which aired as a special on CMT.
Mainstage - "A cross between TED Talks and the Blue Man Group." Adam Savage and Michael Stevens can't wait to unleash their collective sense of wonder, curiosity and fun. This experience is like a two-hour play date with Walt Disney, Willy Wonka and Albert Einstein.
Fenimore Gallery - In so many instances, people need perseverance to make a change. Come hear stories about people who strove for many years to reach their goals.
Mainstage - A/K/A "That Little Ol' Band From Texas," lay undisputed claim to being the longest running major rock band with original personnel intact and, in 2004, the Texas trio was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
