On a monthly basis, patrons will have the chance  to see these world-renowned acts and even have the advantage to meet them personally at the ‘meet-and-greet’ events held in support of the PAC K-12 Educational Outreach Program.

“We included versatile acts because everyone has different interests. We wanted it so our diverse patrons with a diverse set of interests could easily enjoy this year’s season,” said Evy Warshawski, PAC executive director.

“Santa Clarita had a lot of country music fans so we knew we had to add Wynonna and the Big Noise and Lonestar in the lineup. We additionally have family shows such as the Peking acrobats,” she said.

This season’s patrons can also create their own series through the PAC’s new ‘Mix & Match’ subscription program.

The ‘Mix & Match’ subscription program is an opportunity for patrons to get a quantity discount by purchasing tickets for shows à la carte, instead of having a fixed combination of shows they can purchase.

·  Legendary comedian and actor Sinbad — Aug. 24, 2013

·  Hawaiian ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro — Sept. 11, 2013
