vs. 
The Greenville Swamp Rabbits are much more than a professional hockey franchise playing in Upstate South Carolina; it is truly Greenville’s hockey team. Formerly known as the Road Warriors, the club rebranded to the Swamp Rabbits on August 26, 2015 in an effort to really ingrain itself in the fabric of the community. The name is inherently Greenville – specific to the city and unique in the sports world.
It’s the electrifying energy and unstoppable passion of Swamp Rabbits fans inside The Well combined with the award-winning game presentation that make attending a Swamp Rabbits game the BEST fan experience in the ECHL! From the moment you step inside the arena, you’ll find FREE concourse activities for the whole family, including sign-making, temporary tattoos, interactive games, music and there’s always a good chance you’ll run into the Swamp Rabbits mascot Stomper! Throughout the season, fans can also expect a lineup of special theme nights and exciting giveaways.
The “Greatest Movie Musical of All Time” is faithfully and lovingly adapted by Broadway legends, Betty Comden and Adolph Green, from their original award-winning screenplay in Singin’ in the Rain. The story follows silent film stars, Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont, who on screen are a hot item but, behind the scenes, things aren’t always as they appear! When “talking pictures” become essential to any film star’s career, Lina’s squeaky voice might be the end of her stardom without the help of a talented young actress to do the talking and singing for her. Each unforgettable scene, song and dance from the film is accounted for, including the show-stopping title number, complete with an onstage rainstorm! Hilarious situations, snappy dialogue, and a hit-parade score of Hollywood standards make Singin’ in the Rain the perfect entertainment for any fan of the golden age of movie musicals
In this comedy from Tony Award-winning writer Matthew Lopez, Casey is young, he’s broke, his landlord’s knocking at the door, and he just found out his wife is going to have a baby. To make matters even more desperate, Casey is fired from his gig as an Elvis impersonator in a run-down, small-town Florida bar. When the bar owner brings in a b-level drag show, but half of the duo can’t go on, Casey steps into the spotlight. This drag-to-riches musical comedy features our own local legend Delighted Tobehere.
WHO SHOULD SEE THIS SHOW: We all admit that the best part of sports movies is the montage that shows our underdog protagonist slowly start to improve while “Gonna Fly Now” blares over the speakers, right? So when is the last time you saw the theatrical version of that, but with a hilarious twist? Say what if an Elvis impersonator was fired from his job but then forced to do a drag number in front of a rowdy bar without any training? And then what if it turns out this Elvis impersonator is actually really good at being a drag queen? And then what if he hides this new career from his very pregnant wife? Matthew Lopez (Tony winner for THE INHERITANCE) delivers a big-hearted, delightful fish out of water story with GEORGIA MCBRIDE. It delivers big laughs and even bigger lip sync numbers. A drag to riches story featuring Greenville’s own Delighted Tobehere in a role they were born to play, this is a night you won’t want to miss. If you want a big-hearted comedy like CHRISTMAS ON THE ROCKS or NATIVE GARDENS, this show is for you!
