Magic of Lights at Hollywild Animal Preserve
Dec 5 2025 – Jan 3 2026 all-day
Hollywild Animal Preserve

Magic of Lights is a dazzling, drive-through holiday lights experience featuring favorite holiday scenes and characters of the season using the latest LED technology and digital animations. Experience Magic of Lights from the comfort and safety of your own car as you wind through the sparkling path of Greenville’s best holiday tradition. Be sure to stop by Santa’s Village and the Enchanted Deer Forest for extra holiday magic! Kids 2 and under are free!

Step into the magic of Santa’s Village, where holiday cheer meets hands-on fun for the whole family. Feed and interact with gentle miniature horses, camels, Watusi cattle, pigs, sheep, alpacas, goats, waterfowl, antelope, and more—and don’t forget to purchase animal food to treat the many residents. Cuddle with bunnies, have your photo taken with a baby kangaroo, snap pictures with Santa in his animal barn, and visit the Grinch at his festive Grinch House.

Savor fresh coffee and pastries at Santa’s Sweet Delights, or enjoy hot cocoa, drinks, snacks, and food from our concession stand. Visit the souvenir shop for fun, colorful, and festive items, and leave your mark on the “feel good” graffiti board. Warm up by a crackling fire pit or the grand bonfire, roast marshmallows and s’mores, and steal a kiss under the mistletoe tree. Pose inside the giant lighted present, then find a picnic table to relax and take it all in.

Santa’s Village is more than a visit, it’s a memory in the making.

THE OUTSIDERS
Jan 27 all-day
Peace Center

The winner of four 2024 Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, is THE OUTSIDERS.

This classic coming-of-age story takes you to Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1967, where Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade, and their family of Greaser “outsiders” dream about who they want to become in a world that will never accept them.

THE OUTSIDERS features Danya Taymor’s Tony Award® winning direction that’s “refreshing, gritty, and endlessly effective” (The New York Times). With “high-octane choreography” (New York Magazine), THE OUTSIDERS has been described as “more pulse-pounding than anything else on Broadway!” (Time Out New York).

Heros of the Fourth Turning
Jan 30 all-day
The Warehouse Theatre

It’s nearing midnight in Wyoming, where four young conservatives have gathered at a backyard after-party two days before the 2017 eclipse and a week after the Charlottesville riot. They’ve returned home to toast their mentor Gina, newly inducted as president of a tiny Catholic college. As their reunion spirals into spiritual chaos and clashing generational politics, it becomes less a celebration and more a vicious fight to be understood. Will Arbery’s haunting play offers grace and disarming clarity, speaking to the heart of a country at war with itself.

WHY SEE THIS SHOW: 

A Pulitzer Prize finalist, this play is an open and honest dialogue about the restlessness of the heart, how generations define their politics and beliefs, and how in order to understand others we can’t immediately judge them. It’s another unicorn play, a play that has things to say to both sides of the political spectrum.

This is the kind of play that The Warehouse NEEDS to do. It takes a group of people not normally seen in a sympathetic light in theater and treats them with dignity and respect. A masterclass in contemporary storytelling, this is a play that will not be forgotten long after seeing it.
