originally published: 07/15/2025

(GALLOWAY, NJ) -- The 49th season of Stockton University's Performing Arts Center runs the gamut of theatre; from dramatic and comedic plays to powerful tributes to artists both alive and lost, the PAC has something for everybody to enjoy.

Anjanette Christy, director of the PAC, looks forward to this season being a “joyful collision of the classic and the contemporary.”

“We’re bringing the world to our stage – from jazz and Broadway to acrobatics, opera and fresh new voices in dance and theater. We can’t wait to welcome audiences of all ages to experience a celebration of culture and community,” Christy said.

Tickets for all shows are available for purchase online with discounts for senior citizens, military, Stockton alumni, faculty, staff and students, and children 17 and under. You can also call the Stockton PAC box office at 609-652-9000.

Here’s a detailed look at some of the schedule’s highlights:

‘Spamilton: An American Parody’ – Saturday, October 11, 2025 at 7:30pm. Back by popular demand, the hit musical parody “Spamilton” returns to the mainstage of Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center. The spoof of Broadway’s “Hamilton” is the brainchild of Gerard Alessandrini, creator of the long-running hit “Forbidden Broadway.”

After being staged in venues across the United States, the show has been described as “smart, silly and convulsively funny” in the New York Times and “the next best thing to seeing ‘Hamilton’” in the New York Post.



‘Black Angels Over Tuskegee’ – Friday, November 14, 2025 at 7:30pm. A dramatic play inspired by the stories of the first African American aviators in the United States Army’s Air Forces is set to be presented in Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center. Written and directed by Layon Gray, “Black Angels Over Tuskegee” tells the story of six men who, despite Jim Crow-era inequality, exhibited courage and patriotism and formed a brotherhood.

According to Backstage, the play inspired by true events not only teaches, celebrates and entertains, but “manages to do all three and one thing more: it inspires.”



Swift Nation Tribute Show – Thursday, November 20, 2025 at 7:30pm. Swifties unite! A tribute show that takes audiences on a musical journey through Taylor Swift’s career will be on the mainstage of Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center. Melody Ebner, the frontwoman of Swift Nation, will offer fans an immersive live band experience that begins with Swift’s country roots and continues through her chart-topping pop hits.

Swift Nation will celebrate Swift’s musical evolution with a sing-along that promises to be an unforgettable experience for fans of the singer.

PHILADANCO! – Friday, February 13, 2026 at 7:30pm. Back by popular demand is the Philadelphia Dance Company. PHILADANCO! has been celebrated for its innovation, creativity and preservation of African American dance traditions for over five decades.

The company works to cultivate the skills of both emerging and professional dancers and choreographers and tours across the nation and world to present the highest quality dance performances.



Isaac Mizrahi in Concert – Saturday, April 18, 2026 at 7:30pm. Isaac Mizrahi will blend together comedy, storytelling and jazz on Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center mainstage. Mizrahi — an actor, host, writer, designer and producer – will present a one-of-a-kind show that the New York Times has described as “determined to challenge the cultural status quo and help blaze a path into a more liberated future where few subjects are off-limits.”

He will be accompanied by a six-piece jazz band.
