The Guthrie Theatre announces their inaugural live performances scheduled for the 2019 / 2020 season in Mercer County, PA!
The iconic Guthrie Theatre in Olde Town Grove City, PA has once again opened their doors for the public to enjoy live entertainment! The Guthrie Theatre was built in 1926 as a live theatre venue but, between shows, it started to run silent films. From there it grew into a movie house, opening on August 1, 1927. Fast forward to 2019 and the Guthrie Theatre “The Queen of Broad Street” is once again featuring live performances.
The 2019 / 2020 season offers a mix of the classics along with celebrity concerts.
Kicking off the season on November 15th is a recent fan favorite on NBC’s “The Voice,” Pryor Baird. Pryor has woven a unique style of country and blues. Pryor’s gritty vocals, burning guitar licks, and powerful melodies are sure to get you out of your seats and moving your feet with his sound. Opening for Pryor is special guest band, “The Fellas,” a group of musicians from Grove City College, featuring Noah Voltz, Zachary Urbytes, Ethan Raynaud, and Peyton Brogan. Admission: $20/general; VIP Tickets available see website for options.

This classic is sure to get the entire family ready for the Christmas season! Admission: $12.
January 24th, 2020 – 7:00 PM, The Brilliance presents Suite No. 2 the World Keeps Spinning: An Antidote to Modern Anxiety.

The band is comprised of songwriter David Gungor and composer John Arndt, who crafted the new album in collaboration with Biola University Orchestra and Chorus. Admission: $20/general; VIP Tickets available see website for options.
