“Oklahoma!”
This Rogers-Hammerstein classic, a 2019 Tony Award winner for best musical revival, runs Oct. 6-Nov. 1. The musical involves a brash young cowboy, Curly, his true love, the farm girl, Laurey, and the menacing farmhand, Jud, who also has his eye on Laurey. It’s set against the backdrop of Oklahoma’s impending statehood, and has one memorable song after another.
“Ain’t Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations”
The Broadway smash, based on the story of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame act, runs Dec. 1-Jan. 3. The musical bio premiered at the Berkeley Rep for a limited run in 2017.
“Hadestown”
The acclaimed musical, which is the winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards (including best musical) as well as the 2020 Grammy Award for best musical theater album, runs Feb. 2-28. The musical recounts a version of the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus, who descends into the underworld to rescue his love, Eurydice.
“The Cher Show”
The Tony Award-winning musical, based on the early life of the legendary Cher, runs April 27-May 23, 2021. The show presents three stages of Cher’s life — T”Babe,” “Lady” and “Star” — and uses three actresses to portray her.
“Moulin Rouge! The Musical”
The acclaimed musical, based on Baz Luhrmann’s amazing film, runs July 8-Oct. 10, 2021. The musical, based on the hit 2001 movie, is the story of Christian, a young composer who falls in love with Satine, the star of the Moulin Rouge. The musical’s score includes original songs from the movie along with popular tune composed in the almost two decades since the movie’s premiere.
“To Kill a Mockingbird”
Oscar-winner Aaron Sorkin’s adaptation of Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel runs Aug. 24-Sept. 19, 2021. “Mockingbird” is a classic both in its book and movie form. It tells the story of small town racial prejudice, injustice and poverty as seen through the eyes of a young girl, Scout.
“The Prom”
The musical, with direction and choreography by Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (“Mean Girls,” “The Book of Mormon”), runs Sept. 21-Oct. 17, 2021. Four Broadway actors in search of a cause to get behind for their own different reasons, travel to the conservative town of Edgewater, Indiana to help a lesbian student who has been barred from bringing her girlfriend to high school prom.
