The beauty of the waterfalls and gardens is enhanced by the graceful lines of the Liberty Bridge’s architecture and the appealing stonework throughout the park. But that is only the beginning. Several pieces of public art can be found within and around the park. Inside the park you’ll find:
- The sculpture “Rose Crystal Tower,” created by internationally-renowned artist Dale Chihuly, was commissioned by the Wyche Sculpture Committee, comprised of Wyche family members and friends, to honor Harriet Wyche, whom the garden was named for. Wyche was a life-long Greenville resident and community volunteer, who was instrumental in establishing Falls Park, and played a critical role in its continued development over many decades.
- A commissioned sculpture by internationally-recognized artist Bryan Hunt, is found at the Main Street entrance to Falls Park. This unique sculpture, Falls Lake Falls, is the second in an edition of 3 (the original is in Tokyo ) and the only piece of its kind on this continent.
- Evoking much thought and discussion, “Untitled 2002-2003” by Joel Shapiro is also commonly referred to as the dancing or running sculpture. It is located across the river from the main entrance, at the Wyche, Burgess, Freeman and Parham overlook.
- “Sunflower Fountain,” created by Ed Zeigler, Charles Gunning and Robert Brown, can be found in Pedrick’s Garden. Named for Pedrick Lowrey, one of the principal fundraiser for the park, the fountain is cast bronze and patterned after the center radiating spirals of a sunflower, which was Pedrick’s favorite flower.

Hailed as “a thrilling, wild, provocative flight of magical realism…as audacious as it is inventive” by the Associated Press, Katori Hall’s Olivier Award-winning drama reimagines what Dr. King’s last night on Earth could have been.

Fast-paced. Wildly entertaining. Irreverent. Nonstop laughs. Delightful. Darkly
comic. These are the descriptors you will find repeatedly, anywhere you read anything about Kate
Hamill’s MS. HOLMES AND MS. WATSON, APT. 2B. The fact that it is a fast-paced, delightful, wildly
entertaining, irreverent comedy full of nonstop laughs is precisely why The Warehouse Theatre chose
it to lead off their new season.
The play is a comedic, modern take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous sleuth and sidekick. This
rollercoaster romp re-examines the world’s most famous detective story as oddball female
roommates Sherlock Holmes & Joan Watson join forces to emerge from a pandemic fog as a deeply
codependent, quasi-dysfunctional odd couple adventure duo—solving mysteries and kicking butts,
until they come face to face with a villain who seems to have all of the answers.
I Pay What I Can Sunday is September 15th at 3:00pm with tickets being sold on a first come, first
serve basis starting at 2:15pm. Talk Back follows the performance on September 15th. Blue Star
Theatre discounts for veterans and active military apply throughout the run, as well as student and
educator discounts. The show runs September 13th – October 6th, 2024. More information including
tickets can be found at WarehouseTheatre.com.
