Hidden Gem- Sharon Lynn performances

Some of the most creative performances are at the Sharon Lynn PAC! We have tickets to Marcus PAC and Sharon Lynn & hands down, the most enjoyable performances are at Sharon Lynn.

A venue for all to use
Family
Indoor concerts by a variety of artists as well as free outdoor concerts during the summer months. They offer classes as well. They have a designated dog area and a playground for the children. Cross country ski paths in the winter and walking paths for runners and walkers.
A beautiful facility

Beautiful performance space
Business
Sharon Lynne Wilson Center was designed to be a shared concert venue for Brookfield Central and Brookfield East High Schools. It is also used as a concert space for the general public. The stage is large and flexible, the acoustics very good, and the seating atttractive and comfortable. On Sundays, it becomes Shore Point Church, and also functions well in that setting. The lobby features a custom-designed multi-story fireplace with a full wall of floor-to-ceiling windows,and can be used for receptions

Gorgeous facility in a park setting!!!
Couples
We have been to many concerts, events, and taken classes at the Wilson Center in Brookfield. It is truly a special gem in our area. The 600 seat auditorium has great acoustics and they bring in such unique acts and entertainment that can usually not be found anywhere else in Milwaukee. Most recently we saw Frank Almond perform at this venue after the recovery of his Stradivarius violin - phenomonal! The building is beautifully designed with high quality artistic touches everywhere. The ticket office and staff have always been helpful when we need assistance. The only problem is that it can be hard for people to find if they are not from the area since the signage on Capital Drive is not great.

Such a great venue as an alternative to downtown. I love both, but sometimes there’s something to be said about a relaxing and cozy theatre environment with no parking issues to worry about.

A Brookfield Gem!
Couples
The Wilson Center is a gem of a performing arts center located in Brookfield’s Mitchell Park. We have been to several performances there in the main stage Harris Theater and the more intimate Dawes Studio Theater. The theaters have comfortable seating and excellent acoustics, and the programs offered include all types of music from symphony orchestras, choral music, jazz, and Broadway. There isn’t a bad seat in the house! If you haven’t been to a performance at the Wilson Center, check it out; you will be pleasantly surprised!

You feel like your entering a special place. Certainly not a building off Capitol Drive. It's tucked away, quiet and serene. A great spot for a company meeting.

Hidden gem
Family
We had the pleasure of attending a performance by the Milwaukee Ballet summer intensive at the performing arts center. The Center is situated in a lovely park area. The building is beautiful and fits well with the setting. The inside is a good size, not a bad seat in the house. The Starry Nights music festival was going on at the same time and there was more than enough free parking for both functions. We were able to listen to the music outside in between the ballet performances. Great use of the site.
