Hancher’s Broadway series, concerts, and orchestras will fill out the rest of the auditorium’s calendar, while Club Hancher will offer a more intimate setting for performances by comedians and poets. The Department of Dance, School of Music, and Department of Theatre Arts will also have their own exciting events throughout the season, showcasing the diverse talents of the performers and artists involved.
