Catch a Broadway Show at Historic Palace Theatre

The curtain is rising once again on live performances at Manchester’s storied Palace Theatre, and that means AARP’s popular ticket discounts are back, too. 

Members and their guests can enjoy $10 off adult tickets for select shows during the 2022 season, where Broadway musicals take center stage.

Nostalgic for ‘50s rock ‘n’ roll? From Friday, March 11, to Sunday, April 3, see Bye Bye Birdie, the show inspired by Elvis Presley’s conscription into the Army, which paved the way for the 1963 hit film. 

Or laugh with The Producers, the Tony Award–winning stage adaptation of Mel Brooks’ 1967 acclaimed film. Running from Friday, April 22, to Sunday, May 15, it highlights the antics of a has-been theater producer and his accountant, famously portrayed by Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, respectively, in the 2001 Broadway smash. 

From Friday, June 3, to Sunday, June 26, catch Elle Woods, a bubbly sorority queen with a penchant for pink, as she takes Harvard by storm in Legally Blonde, based on the 2001 Hollywood blockbuster starring Reese Witherspoon. 

Get tickets at the box office at 80 Hanover St., online at palacetheatre.org or by calling 603-668-5588. Use the promo code ACTIVE.
