The Midwest's Best Musical Theater & Behind the Scenes Tour
There is no need to travel all the way to New York or Chicago when you can see first-rate theater right here in Peoria. You can see Broadway touring companies at the Peoria Civic Center for a fraction of the price you would pay elsewhere! With this tour, groups would enjoy great community theater as well as having an opportunity to see a Broadway show (if available), take a back stage tour of the theater, meet the cast, try your hand at acting, enjoy great food and spend the night in one of our area premiere hotels.
