Greenville Theatre Centennial, Spider-Man Rescues, Pharmacy Revitalizes Dining!

Greenville Theatre celebrates its 100th season, marking a century as a vital force in Upstate South Carolina’s arts scene.

Founded in 1926, the theatre honors its legacy with events that blend cherished history and fresh creative energy.

Producing Artistic Director Max Quinlan promises that this year will be the theatre’s most ambitious, designed as a heartfelt thank you to the Greenville community.

The “Art, Love, & Home” centennial season highlights include A Chorus Line in September, the fan-favorite Clue: On Stage in October, and Irving Berlin’s White Christmas during the holidays.

The new GT Off-Broadway Series spotlights intimate productions like Red and a unique symphonic staging of Sunday in the Park with George.

Special celebrations will feature more than 100 performers from the theatre’s past, underscoring its growth into the Upstate’s largest professional stage company and a beloved local institution.

"Greenville is not just a city, it's a community where Southern hospitality shines bright."

Greenville’s own Spider-Man leapt to the rescue at Falls Park, saving two people stranded on the waterfall.

The 18-year-old hero, a familiar face downtown, acted quickly, scaling slippery rocks to reach those in danger and pulling them to safety.

Known for his everyday heroics, Greenville’s Spider-Man also spends his days picking up litter, greeting fans, and monitoring an EMS scanner to help where he’s needed most.

Certified in CPR, he frequently assists people in medical distress until first responders arrive.

Active on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, the “friendly downtown Spider-Man” recently adjusted his patrols to nighttime hours, following a string of local incidents and increased safety concerns.

His dedication, kindness, and growing presence bring reassurance and inspiration to the heart of Greenville.

Why did the scarecrow win an award in Greenville, South Carolina?

Because he was outstanding in his field!

Greenville is set to welcome The Pharmacy at Augusta, a unique American bistro opening at 15 Conestee Avenue in late September or early October.

This new restaurant honors the legacy of Campbell’s Pharmacy, a local favorite that operated at the site for seventy years.

Chef Nelson De Hoyos, previously with Hall’s Chophouse, will lead the kitchen, blending classic American fare with fresh, modern touches.

Guests can enjoy lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, as well as a cocktail lounge and inviting outdoor patio.

General Manager Larry Bullock promises top-notch service tailored to the Augusta Road community.

Subtle design details will reference the building’s rich history, creating a warm, familiar atmosphere.

The Pharmacy aims to revive the strong sense of community that once defined this spot, blending nostalgia with new energy for Greenville locals.
