What is Marquee?
The Marquee Club is TPAC's premier membership program. Marquee was created over three Broadway seasons ago, and due to popular demand and growth, TPAC is expanding the program to include all musical theatre enthusiasts and performing arts supporters who want to experience live performance on a new, exciting and exclusive level. Marquee Members use this club for date nights, corporate client entertaining, socializing, and networking.
This season, the Marquee Club consists of four levels. Each level is different, allowing you to choose the experience you want to have! Marquee prides itself on providing a unique Tuesday night out in Nashville by offering exclusive benefits – so take advantage of the perks and join the club today!

What does it cost to join the Marquee Club?
The Marquee Club consists of four different levels. Each level has a different set of benefits so that you can choose the TPAC experience you want to have:
Applause Society Marquee Member: Marquee Donation = $1250 per pair of seats plus the purchase of a six-show premiere subscription package in the Applause Society area of the theater ($344 per six-show package)
Performers Circle Marquee Member: Marquee Donation = $475 per pair of seats plus purchase of six-show premiere subscription package in the Performers Circle area in the theater ($344 per six-show subscription package)
Subscriber Marquee Member: Marquee Donation = $175 per pair of seats plus the purchase of a six-show subscription package ($344, $304, $239 or $135 per six-show package depending on where you choose to sit in the theater)
Marquee Member: Marquee Donation = $150 per member. This includes one guest to all Marquee events but excludes the cost of tickets. Tickets are purchased individually and usually have discounts associated with them.
When I pay my Marquee Club dues, does my membership begin immediately?
Your Marquee Club membership is activated when you pay your dues, but the majority of your benefits don’t begin until the Broadway season begins. Most of the Marquee events are cast parties which are directly associated with the Broadway shows.
If you join the Marquee Club mid-way into a Broadway season, your membership will NOT extend half way through the following season. It will terminate at the end of the Broadway season you joined initially.

How am I supporting the Arts by joining Marquee?
