“I felt like my world opened up after being introduced to the performing arts.” These are the words of a patron who attended a performance on our Main Stage Series, and now brings her family to The Grand. With your help we can continue to bring amazing artists to the community, with the hope of inspiring others just like this patron.

More than a theater, The Grand is a community destination that brings unique experiences to Wausau on and off the stage. From nationally touring artists to our local partners, we provide interesting ways for the community to connect, explore creativity, and thrive.Community support helps make it possible for The Grand to bring people together and experience the power of the performing arts.

What has been your experience at The Grand?

I have lived in Wausau for over ten years and have attended only two shows at the Grand; until this year. This year I bought tickets to ten shows and choose to support the Grand at the “Cameo” donation level. This is a great season!                                                                     – Sheila

I am the Education & Disabilities Specialist for Marathon County Head Start. We truly appreciate all the wonderful performances that are offered to our children in the community. We are extremely fortunate to have these opportunities through the Grand Theater.    – Nicole

I love that the Grand is so close to my home and they have excellent shows!! Great seating and excellent acoustics.                                                                                                                  – Rachel
