Our 2026-2027 Season wraps up next June with "Come from Away". The widely-acclaimed musical. 7,000 stranded passengers. One small town. A remarkable true story. What started as an average day turned into an international sleepover for thousands of passengers from around the globe. An exhilarating, award-winning musical that starts on September 11, 2001 when 38 planes are diverted to the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland.

"What the Constitution Means to Me" wraps up our "On the Edge" series in March. Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans. Fifteen-year-old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States. In this hilarious, hopeful and achingly human new play, she resurrects her teenage self in order to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives.

Our "On the Edge" series continues in February with "Defying Gravity". This free-structured look at the 1986 Challenger disaster places the teacher who died with six others as they hurtled into space at the center of an exploration of our need to reach beyond ourselves and dare the universe. Defying Gravity artfully interweaves the past with the present and the lives of participants and bystanders, drawing parallels among painter Claude Monet's artistic quest, the zest of the teacher selected to the first civilian astronaut, the perspectives of her grieving daughter, the aspirations of elderly tourists who drive their Winnebago to Florida to watch the space shot and dream of hotels in space, the guilt felt by a NASA mechanic, and his girlfriend's fear of heights.

Our highly-acclaimed On the Edge black box series starts in January with "Cadillac Crew". On the day of a much-anticipated speech by Rosa Parks during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, four activists working in a Virginia civil rights office wonder whether the proclamation of equality amongst mankind includes women. With remarkable insight and unexpected humor, Cadillac Crew reclaims the stories of the forgotten leaders who blazed the trail for desegregation and women’s rights and asks: when will the world be ready to embrace women in all their capacity?
