WORCESTER — The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts recently announced its full 2026-27 season, which will feature seven Broadway shows, the returning Dance Series with four renowned companies and two Worcester premieres, and three THT Rep productions.

Subscribers to the new season enjoy 10 to 20% savings compared with single-ticket purchases, along with discounts on most other programming, an interest-free six-installment payment plan, and the flexibility to exchange tickets for another performance of the same show if plans change.
“From groundbreaking musicals to boundary-pushing dance and theatre, our new season brings together world-renowned artists and thought-provoking stories from wide-ranging cultures and disciplines,” said Alan Seiffert, president & CEO of The Hanover Theatre & Conservatory for the Performing Arts. “Our subscription series and ticketing options ensure regional audiences can connect with the energy and creativity happening on our stages all year long.”
Monty Python’s “Spamalot” from Oct. 2-4, “The Bodyguard” from Nov. 6-8, and “Water for Elephants” Feb. 26-28, 2027,are just three of the critically acclaimed Broadway shows coming to the Hanover stage during the upcoming season.
