On this episode of the Grow Clinton Podcast, we welcome Chris Streets from the Clinton Area Showboat Theatre to talk about another exciting season of live entertainment along the Mississippi River.

Chris gives listeners a preview of the 2026 show schedule, featuring a dynamic lineup of productions that continue the Showboat’s tradition of bringing high-quality, professional theater to the region. Whether you're a longtime supporter or considering your first visit, this season offers something for everyone, from classic favorites to fresh, engaging performances.

We also dive into the many ways the community can get involved. Chris outlines flexible ticket purchase options, including season passes and individual show tickets, making it easy for residents and visitors alike to experience the magic of the Showboat.

Beyond attending performances, the theatre offers a variety of volunteer opportunities, providing a unique chance to support the arts while connecting with others who share a passion for live performance.

One of the highlights of the conversation is the Showboat’s commitment to youth programming. Chris discusses special opportunities for young actors to get involved, build confidence, and gain hands-on experience in a professional theater environment. These programs continue to play an important role in developing local talent and fostering a lifelong appreciation for the arts.
