The Glenridge Performing Arts Center Announces a Showstopping 2025–2026 Season

Arts & Culture

From high-voltage jazz to timeless folk harmonies, the Glenridge Performing Arts Center (GPAC) is turning up the spotlight for its 2025–2026 season. Running September 27, 2025, through April 21, 2026, this year’s season showcases beloved returning performers, acclaimed classical ensembles, theatrical gems, legendary tribute acts, and laugh-out-loud comedy. Highlights include the iconic harmonies of The Kingston Trio and The Four Freshmen; a Shakespearean sampler from the Asolo Rep; Sarasota’s own Maria Wirries, fresh off a Broadway run; and laugh-out-loud comedy from Tom Briscoe. There’s also dazzling chamber music by the Sarasota Piano Quartet, vocal brilliance from Seraphic Fire, and big band swing from the Pine View Jazz Band. Add in jazz greats like Stephanie Nakasian and Judy Carmichael, musical tributes to Chicago, Bruce Springsteen, and Barry Manilow, plus programs that explore folk traditions, soul, and early music—and it’s clear: there’s something for every taste.
