From main stage shows that include touring shows, concerts, and comedians, to more intimate conversations with authors and performers, the award-winning line-up continues the Palace’s tradition of offering the highest quality live entertainment in the most elegant setting in Connecticut!
The Palace’s exciting 2025-2026 Webster Bank Broadway Series is full of fantastic characters and delightful storytelling told across many theatrical forms! The season features fabulous titles and characters including Regency heroines like Elizabeth Bennet and Jane Austen in Austen’s Pride, a rock’n’roll icon in Tina – The Tina Turner Musical, six suspicious dinner guests who bring the family favorite board game to life in Clue, a 1970’s rock band on the verge of stardom in Stereophonic, a fast-talking salesman and a charming librarian who fall in love in Meredith Willson’s The Music Man, and Blue Man Group’s three blue musicians ready to mesmerize the audience from the first drum beat. The season also brings comedians, concerts, and speakers to Waterbury, including 16-time Grammy award-winning musician, songwriter, and producer David Foster and acclaimed singer, television and Broadway star, Katharine McPhee, the “undisputed queen” of Reggaetón Ivy Queen, adventurer Josh Gates, and Hollywood medium Tyler Henry.
Off the Main Stage, the Palace also serves as the area’s most intimate jazz club in the Poli Club, featuring nationally acclaimed jazz artists. Additionally, The Spotlight Series focuses on remarkable people while showcasing the art of storytelling. I Wrote That Author Talks offer insight into the creative process of writing, 2ND ACT features the extraordinary things people do in the second half of their lives, while Immigrant Stories presents first-person accounts of moving to a new country and starting over. New to the series this season are CommUNITY Storytime events for families, featuring children’s authors presenting interactive, age-appropriate activities to complement their stories.
