Located in the heart of Huntington on the Marshall University campus, the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center has been a cultural cornerstone since its dedication in 1992. Named after philanthropist Joan C. Edwards, the facility serves as a polished centerpiece for the city’s live arts scene. The venue features the Francis-Booth Main Stage, celebrated for its intimate warmth and crisp acoustics. Situated along 5th Avenue, the center is steps away from the university’s student center and a variety of downtown shops and local dining. While the primary home for university theater, the center frequently welcomes nationally recognized touring acts and stand-up comedy. It is a significant venue for fans of the McElroy brothers, who hail from Huntington and have brought their hit podcast, *My Brother, My Brother and Me*, to its stage for live performances. Whether hosting local favorites or touring headliners, the venue offers a professional and welcoming environment for a premier comedy experience.
