2025–2026 Season Highlights & Show Descriptions

The upcoming season blends myth, comedy, rhythm and the supernatural, each show bringing its own distinct theatrical flavour:

  • Hadestown — Monday, March 9, 2026 at 7:30 PM
    The season introduces Hadestown, the celebrated musical that swept the 2019 Tony Awards with eight wins including Best Musical. Inspired by ancient Greek mythology, Hadestown intertwines the tragic romance of Orpheus and Eurydice with the underworld saga of Hades and Persephone. Its New Orleans-infused folk-jazz sound, crafted by Anaïs Mitchell, and its imaginative staging by Rachel Chavkin create an atmospheric, emotionally gripping experience. The musical is both timeless and strikingly modern, exploring themes of love, survival and the cost of hope in a divided world.
  • STOMP — Tuesday, April 14, 2026 & Wednesday, April 15, 2026 at 7:30 PM
    The international phenomenon STOMP returns with its trademark fusion of percussion, movement and theatricality. Using everyday objects — bins, brooms, lids, buckets and more — the performers transform rhythm into storytelling. Known for its relentless energy and universal humour, the show continues to evolve with new full-scale routines added for the 2025–2026 tour. It’s fast, loud, inventive and suitable for all ages, making it a highlight for families and fans of unconventional performance art.
  • Murder Is On The Menu — Sunday, May 24, 2026 at 7:00 PM
    This comedic murder-mystery invites audiences into the puzzling world of Boddy Manor, where a dinner party spirals into chaos as secrets emerge and the body count rises. With its tongue-in-cheek approach to the classic whodunit format, the show balances suspense with light-hearted mischief. It’s an ideal choice for theatregoers who enjoy sharp comedy, unpredictable twists and interactive storytelling.
  • Beetlejuice – The Musical — September 8–10, 2026 at 7:30 PM
    Big, bold and wonderfully bizarre, Beetlejuice brings Tim Burton’s cult-classic world to life in musical form. Featuring eccentric ghosts, rebellious teen Lydia Deetz and the mischievous, chaotic Beetlejuice himself, the show combines gothic humour with heartfelt moments. Its score is infectious, the visuals are spectacular and its tone is gleefully irreverent — a perfect autumn event for fans of dark comedy and quirky theatrical spectacle.
