CHARLESTON, SC — January 14, 2026 — Spoleto Festival USA today announced its 2026 season, running May 22–June 7, 2026, featuring more than 110 performances across opera, dance, theater, music, jazz, and community programs. The season arrives at a pivotal national moment—the 250th anniversary of the United States—and is shaped by a unifying theme of freedom of expression, reflecting the role of the arts as a catalyst for connection.

“Freedom of expression is at the heart of why this Festival exists,” said Mena Mark Hanna, General Director and CEO of Spoleto Festival USA. “In this moment—marking 250 years of American history—our 2026 season invites audiences to experience bold new work, revisit enduring masterpieces, and encounter artists who compel us to listen, reflect, and imagine together.”

The 2026 season brings the America 250 theme into focus through a wide-ranging group of programs that reflect the nation’s history, artistic voices, and enduring spirit of expression. Highlights include Renée Fleming & Béla Fleck: The Fiddle and the Drum (May 23), celebrating Appalachian folk traditions; An Evening with Ken Burns, presented by Bank of America (May 27), featuring music and discussion drawn from his latest documentary,The American Revolution; George + George (May 29, 30, 31), a world-premiere comedy set at Valley Forge exploring liberty and censorship;Martha Graham Dance Company’s Graham 100 (May 22, 23, 24, 25), celebrating the enduring legacy of visionary choreographer Martha Graham; an all-American orchestral program featuring Aaron Copland’sAppalachian Spring (May 31); Storytelling Through American Composers (June 5,6)by the Festival Chorus; and a robust slate of jazz performances that honor jazz as a defining American art form rooted in freedom, innovation, and cultural exchange. 

Dynamic storytelling takes center stage in this season’s dance lineup, sponsored by Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina, which spans contemporary and classical traditions. MacArthur Fellow Ayodele Casel presents The Remix (June 4-7), a high-energy tap performance blending live music, storytelling, and virtuosic choreography that celebrates the legacy of American tap. Scottish Ballet returns with the U.S. premiere of Mary, Queen of Scots (May 28-30), a sweeping narrative ballet featuring live music by the Festival Orchestra, dramatic storytelling, and striking visual spectacle. 

Extending beyond the stage, Spoleto continues its tradition of free community programming that celebrates Charleston’s cultural heritage while expanding access to world-class art. The Untold Story Behind Porgy & Bess (June 2) examines the complex history of one of America’s most iconic operas, tracing its roots in Charleston’s Gullah-Geechee culture and its lasting impact through live music, excerpts from Lauren Waring Douglas’ forthcoming documentary, and a discussion moderated by WCBD News 2 anchor Carolyn Murray. The Duchy (May 31), a new play by Tony-Award winner Denis O’Hare, will be presented as a table reading, offering audiences an exclusive first look at the work and insight into the creative process before its full production in a future Spoleto season.

The season’s opera offerings showcase Spoleto’s commitment to honoring historical repertoire while presenting bold, inventive approaches that engage audiences of all ages and experience levels. The Old Maid and the Thief (May 22, 25,27, 29), a Spoleto production of Gian Carlo Menotti’s 1939 radio opera, is reimagined as a live radio-drama with hand-crafted sound effects, period microphones, and on-stage musicians, creating a witty, immersive, and accessible entry point for opera newcomers. Dido and Aeneas (May 23, 26, 28, 30), Circa’s U.S. premiere, fuses Purcell’s iconic 1689 opera with acrobatics and modern orchestration under conductor Patrick Dupré Quigley, crafting a visually stunning and emotionally intense reinterpretation. 

Marking her inaugural season as Music Director of the Festival Chorus, Amanda Quist brings the Festival Chorus and Orchestra together for a landmark performance of Mozart’s Mass in C Minor (May 29),one of Mozart’s most breathtaking achievements with soaring arias and radiant choral passages. The Festival Chorus also turns its focus to American voices in Storytelling Through American Composers (June 5, 6), a program that explores identity, memory, and community through choral works by American composers at the historic St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church.

Offering audiences sweeping orchestral grandeur, intimate artistry, and the thrill of world premieres, the Festival Orchestra’s symphonic programming unfolds under the direction of Music Director Timothy Myers. The Orchestra performs Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5 (May 24) alongside the world premiere of Michael Abels’ new work for cello and orchestra, featuring Grammy-winning cellist Zuill Bailey, as well as Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 (June 4) paired with Paul Wiancko’s new violin concerto written for Livia Sohn. American masterworks are further highlighted in Appalachian Spring and American Classics (May 31) at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, featuring music by Aaron Copland, Samuel Barber, and Jessie Montgomery.

At the heart of the Festival’s intimate musical offerings, the Bank of America Chamber Music series—led by Charles E. and Andrea L. Volpe Director of Chamber Music Paul Wiancko—invites audiences into a close exploration of artistry and collaboration. The 2026 series features Allison Loggins-Hull as the Suzan D. Boyd Composer-in-Residence, contributing new works and fresh perspectives. Presented in the historic Dock Street Theatre, these concerts highlight the precision, nuance, and expressive power of chamber music while offering a uniquely immersive Festival experience.

Theater programming in 2026 ranges from inventive solo performance to visually arresting physical theater and family-friendly works. Broadway star Patrick Page appears in All the Devils Are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain (June 3, 5, 6, 7), a solo show tracing the evolution of iconic Shakespearean villains through humor, analysis, and theatrical storytelling. Australia’s Circa presents Humans 2.0 (May 24-25), a visually stunning physical theater piece exploring trust, strength, and human connection through acrobatics and ensemble movement. Family audiences are invited to experience imaginative performances such as Dead as a Dodo (May 29-31)and Alvin Sputnik: Deep Sea Explorer (May 23-25), blending puppetry, music, and storytelling to entertain and inspire younger festivalgoers.

A cornerstone of American culture, the Wells Fargo Jazz series showcases artists who embody freedom, resilience, and continual reinvention. Performances include Terence Blanchard (May 26), honoring Miles Davis and John Coltrane while connecting their revolutionary spirit to his own genre-defying work; Jason Moran (June 1), reimagining Duke Ellington’s legacy through improvisation and visual storytelling; rhythm-driven celebrations byPedrito Martinez Group (June 3) and Charleston native Quentin E. Baxter (May 30), linking Afro-Cuban, Gullah-Geechee, and Lowcountry traditions; and Jazz Artists-in-Residence Sullivan Fortner (June 5–6) and Mali Obomsawin (May 23-24), who illuminate the genre’s evolving narrative, rooted in Black and Indigenous histories.

Set beneath the open sky in Charleston’s historic and iconic Cistern Yard, Live at the Cistern features some of Spoleto’s most sought-after performances: Punch Brothers (May 24), progressive string band; The Mountain Goats with William Tyler and Yasmin Williams (May 31), acclaimed indie-folk ensemble; Indigo Girls (June 2), folk-rock duo;Molly Tuttle (June 4), Grammy-winning bluegrass guitarist; Emmylou Harris (June 5), country and Americana legend; Colin Meloy(June 6), frontman of The Decemberists; and Brandi Carlile (June 7), Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, closing the Festival in a final performance sponsored by Wells Fargo.

Professional bull riding champion Michael Lane embodies the rare combination of grit, poise, and perspective that defines the sport at its highest level. Last weekend, Lane brought that spirit to Charleston, South Carolina, where he competed and met fans, sharing stories of his journey from a determined four-year-old to one of the leading figures in professional bull riding.

Lane’s entry into the sport started early and naturally. Born in 1990, he grew up alongside the rise of Professional Bull Riders (PBR), founded just three years later. Surrounded by the western lifestyle and guided by supportive family members, the pull toward the arena was immediate. “I had a brother-in-law that rode at amateur levels, and I went with him, and I seen that the little kids started riding sheep… I told my parents that I wanted to ride on that. I didn’t want to lead them around,” he recalled. From sheep to calves, to junior bulls and high school rodeo, each step strengthened his commitment and sharpened his skills.

Now 18 years into his professional career, Lane credits consistency, preparation, and mindset for his longevity. Bull riding is a sport measured in seconds but forged over decades, and Lane approaches the moments before the chute gate opens with remarkable composure. “Calm, cool mind,” he said. “I try not to be thinking a whole lot, just very present and in that moment.” That presence allows him to channel focus rather than fear, a trait that separates elite competitors from the rest.

Equally important to Lane is the work no one sees. Training, repetition, and discipline form the backbone of his success. As he explains it, confidence is not conjured—it is earned. “I’m a firm believer that action removes doubt,” Lane said. “All the action that I take throughout the week and all the work that I put into it my whole career removes any doubt… When you work that hard, you show up knowing you’re going to do good, not hoping you’re going to do good.” His words reveal not only an athlete’s philosophy but a life lesson applicable far beyond the arena.

Among his many accomplishments, one memory rises above the rest: the 2015 World Finals, where he rode three of his five bulls. The achievement was made unforgettable by family. “My mother was still alive and was still there to support me and see that,” Lane shared, noting that those moments remain some of the most meaningful of his career.

Today, Lane balances competition with fatherhood, encouraging his daughters’ love for the western lifestyle—barrel racing yes, bulls maybe not. He offers simple, heartfelt advice to young riders who hope to follow in his footsteps: “Make sure you’re having fun doing it and work hard. If that’s what you want, then go after it. Pursue everything you have.”

Charleston fans saw more than a champion last weekend; they saw a humble athlete grounded in family, faith in his work, and deep respect for the sport. Michael Lane continues to ride not only for victory but for the love of the life that bull riding built—one ride, one memory, and one community at a time.

The Charleston premiere of Ayad Akhtar’s “McNeal” comes to Pure Theatre January 15 through February 7, 2026.

About the Play

Pulitzer Prize winner Ayad Akhtar delivers a thrillingly vicious portrait of genius, ambition, and betrayal, as a literary icon faces down old grudges, new technology, and the price of his own myth.

Good writers borrow, great writers steal. Jacob McNeal is a great writer, one of our greatest, and a perpetual candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. But he also has an estranged son, a new novel, old axes to grind, and an unhealthy fascination with Artificial Intelligence. From Pulitzer Prize-winner Ayad Akhtar, McNeal is a startling and wickedly smart examination of the inescapable humanity—and increasing inhumanity—of the stories we tell.

Mission: 

The mission of the Town of Summerville’s Unmanned Aerial Systems (Drone) Program is to offer aerial services in a manner that is safe, responsible, and transparent. We aim to enhance the safety and well-being of the citizens of Summerville through the strategic and ethical use of drone technology.

Overview:

The Town of Summerville’s Unmanned Aerial Systems Program is a multi-departmental initiative that employs drone technology to optimize various facets of municipal services and public safety. The program involves trained operators from the Police, Fire, GIS, Public Information, and Planning Departments, among others. While the Police Department uses drones for search and rescue missions and suspect apprehension, the Fire Department utilizes them for fire monitoring and emergency response planning. GIS and Planning Departments use drone-acquired data for terrain mapping, infrastructure planning, and land-use studies. The Public Information Office leverages the technology for real-time information dissemination during public events or emergencies. Compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations and a strong commitment to privacy rights are foundational to the program. A robust system of accountability and transparency, including detailed flight logs and monthly public reporting, ensures responsible use across all participating departments.
