Embark on a wildly imaginative voyage with Peter and the Starcatcher, the five-time Tony Award-winning play that brilliantly reimagines how a young orphan became “the boy who wouldn't grow up.” Overflowing with boundless creativity and a ton of heart, this hilarious romp of a play reminds us all that anything is possible when we dare to believe.

February 25-March 20, 2027

Step inside the intoxicating world of Cabaret, where the hedonistic nightlife of the Kit Kat Club surrounds a cast of dreamers, performers, and outsiders chasing decadence and freedom. Eerily relevant, Cabaret is a seductive and haunting celebration of living for the moment while the world around you teeters on the edge of chaos.
