In movies, Asian night markets always look so vibrant and exciting. And now, at the Block, you don’t even need to leave Greenville to attend a similarly styled event. Sum Bar, Swanson’s, and Fireforge are coming together for the month of November to host Night Markets on Saturday nights from 7-10pm. In addition to tasty dishes, there will be local vendors, drinks, games, and raffles. Entry is free. Come see the extravaganza for yourself!

The hills are alive, and so is the theatre! Witness the timeless classic, The Sound of Music, this week at the Peace Center. Join the Von Trapp family as they navigate intense situations involving war, romance, and learning to sing. Tickets start at $72 dollars. With three time Tony Award winner Jack O’Brian, this version of the musical is sure to be a hit.

Whose line is it anyway? Find out at Whose Live Anyway, a live performance similar to the popular tv comedy show, which will be performed at Furman University on November 13th. Beloved cast members Ryan Stiles, Greg Proops, Jeff B. Davis, and Joel Murray will act out elaborate improv scenarios based on audience suggestions. There will be classic improv games, as well as a few new ones. Tickets start at $62. Shows are completely unique and cannot be completely replicated, so if you miss it, you miss it for good!
