The Gateway

06/04/2026

An extraordinary night of music, community, and celebration is coming to The Gateway, tonight (June 4) at 7 PM!

Cabaret Night is more than a performance. It is a chance to gather with fellow theater lovers, celebrate the artists who bring our stage to life, and invest in the future of live theater.

Every ticket purchased directly supports The Gateway’s nonprofit mission, helping us produce unforgettable MainStage productions and year-round programming. From the uplifting stories of Come From Away to the holiday magic of Million Dollar Quartet Christmas and the classic charm of Funny Girl, your support makes it all possible.

Join us as we celebrate everything we’ve accomplished together and look ahead to the exciting seasons still to come.

Tickets are $85 per person, and a 50/50 raffle will offer even more opportunities to support the arts.

Be part of an evening that keeps the magic of The Gateway thriving for generations to come.

It’s quite literally blowing our minds… 🤯
Only THREE performances left!

Don’t miss the show everyone is raving about — West Side Story closes this Sunday.

Just three (3) chances to experience the electric streets of 1950s New York, where rival gangs fight for turf, pride, and survival. When Tony meets Maria, their forbidden love dares to rise above it all… but at what cost? Inspired by Romeo and Juliet, this timeless masterpiece pulses with unforgettable music, breathtaking choreography, and raw emotional intensity.

Featuring iconic songs like “Tonight,” “Somewhere,” “America,” and “Maria,” this sweeping love story will leave you absolutely breathless.

Don’t miss West Side Story on stage at The Gateway Playhouse — two performances today (5/30) and one tomorrow (5/31)!

Directed and choreographed by Vincent Ortega, with an incredible creative team bringing every moment to life: associate direction, choreography, and intimacy direction by Ashley Klinger; dance captain and fight direction by Bryan Ernesto Menjivar; music direction by Andrew Haile Austin; and associate music direction by Jake Turski.

Today, we pause to honor and remember.

This Memorial Day, all of us at The Gateway reflect on the courage and sacrifice of the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their legacy of dedication and selflessness allows us the freedom to gather, to create, and to share stories together.

As a community rooted in connection and expression, we are grateful for the opportunity to bring people together through the arts — something made possible by those we remember today.

We invite you to join us in taking a moment of gratitude and remembrance.
