The fall brings Broadway magic with A Chorus Line (Sept. 19–28), a riveting look into the lives of chorus dancers, followed by Cinderella (Dec. 6-28), the classic Rodgers & Hammerstein fairytale reimagined with hope and enchantment.
Kicking off 2026, the semi-pro cast of Uptown Studio brings Pinkalicious The Musical (Jan. 8-18), a colorful and quirky story about embracing what makes us unique.
