Established in the autumn of 2005, Magnolia Arts Center was founded with the mission of creating a comprehensive arts organization to serve Greenville and the surrounding areas. For two decades, Magnolia has delivered a myriad of plays, musicals, and special events. We invite you to explore our upcoming events in our 2024 season.

                                                                        WHAT’S UP AT MAGNOLIA ARTS CENTER?

Thank you for your support of Magnolia Arts Center. Your generosity allowed us to stage successful shows in 2024, as well as workshops and special events.

We would appreciate your help in assuring a successful 2025 season. Please consider an end-of-year donation.

Producing a theater season is costly since the royalties for each show must be paid in full before we advertise or promote the show. The royalty total for the upcoming season is approximately $13,000.

Maintaining the building continues to present financial challenges.  Our goals include:

·  Repair a leaky roof
·  Update the sinks in the concession area and the dressing room
·  Pay the electric bill (which runs about $800-$900 monthly)

All donations are tax deductible. Magnolia Arts Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit.  All donations will appear on our Donor List. The End-of-Year Donation Campaign runs from November 2024 to December 31st, 2024

For all donations made on Giving Tuesday (December 3), MAC is offering the following gifts:

“You may be an undigested bit of beef, for example, or a blob of mustard. A crumb of cheese or a fragment of an underdone potato. I’d say there’s more gravy than graveyard about you!” The miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is convinced that he’s suffering from indigestion when faced with the ghost of his late business partner, Jacob Marley…and that’s just for starters!

This musical adaption of Charles Dicken’s famous novel features diverse musical styles (rock, country, gospel, polka) and varied uses of wording and language that spans from one century to the next. All the beloved (and reviled) characters show up as Scrooge learns the true meaning of Christmas.

The words and lyrics of Ebenezer – A Christmas Carol come to life from the creative imagination of North Carolina playwright Frank P. Trimble. The audience will be delighted with the wonderful choreography and unexpected comedic turns in this delightful adaptation. Make your Christmas even brighter with this wonderful production!

Performances:

December 4-8 & December 11-14
