Current & Upcoming Shows

Play

The Roommate

10/23/26 - 11/22/26 at the Max and Rochelle Levit Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Fresh from a hit Broadway run starring Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone, this cheeky comedy centers on recently divorced, middle-aged, and quintessentially Midwestern Sharon who reluctantly rents out a room to Robyn, a worldly, spiritually hip vegan from New York. Polar opposites, the women initially clash but soon find themselves confiding their deep dissatisfactions with life to each other.

Musical

Great American Trailer Park Christmas Musical

11/20/26 - 12/27/26 at the Lester and Sue Smith Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Deck the halls, trailer park style. Set in the delightfully tacky town of Armadillo Acres, Florida, this holiday musical features a motley crew of feisty yet lovable townsfolk. With temperatures lowering and tinsel trees erected, the trailer park’s quirky inhabitants wrestle with family drama, romantic hijinks, and a sleigh-full of holiday chaos, made even more complicated by the sudden arrival of an unexpected visitor who threatens to upend the festivities. Adorned with outrageous humor, toe-tapping country-rock songs, and plenty of yuletide cheer, this fast-paced musical delivers big laughs and proves that underneath the tinsel and the southern twang lies a heartfelt reminder that even the most unconventional families can find love, forgiveness, and joy.

Play

Sister’s Irish Catechism: Saints, Snakes & Green Milkshakes

2/23/27 - 3/21/27 at the Lester and Sue Smith Stage
Stages / The Gordy

The annual St. Patrick’s Day parade is just around the corner and everyone’s favorite sassy nun takes charge in preparing for the big day. Commanding the pulpit for your next catechism class, this time in shades a bit more green, Sister’s lessons focus on all things Irish history. Audience members become students in a hilarious classroom where Sister’s rules are all that matter. This highly improvised show takes its cue from each audience, meaning each show is different and if you’re in for a good time, so is Sister.

Musical

Once on This Island

5/28/27 - 6/20/27 at the Lester and Sue Smith Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Sweeping, soulful, and radiating with hope, this beloved musical, which won the 2018 Tony Award for Best Musical Revival, has captivated audiences the world over. Set on a vibrant Caribbean island alive with music, movement, and magic, this folktale is loosely inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s Little Mermaid and based on Rose Guy’s My Love, My Love. After her village is destroyed by a fierce hurricane, fearless young peasant girl Ti Moune is rescued by playful island gods. When she falls in love with a wealthy boy from the other side of her island, she is swept on a journey of love, adventure, and self discovery. With soaring music and breathtaking dance, Ti Moune’s journey is a testament to determination and optimism.

Play

SIGNing the Song

11/4/26 - 11/8/26 at the Sterling Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Written and performed by William Martinez, SIGNing the Song tells the true story of an eighth-grade music teacher who helped him find confidence and a future in music. Through Broadway favorites, familiar standards, humor, and storytelling, Martinez reflects on growing up in a Deaf household and the role of American Sign Language in his life.

Play

The Mountaintop

2/5/27 - 2/28/27 at the Sterling Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Winner of the 2010 Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play. On the night of April 3, 1968, as the heralded words delivered that afternoon during his Mountaintop speech still echo outside, Dr. King sits inside Room 306 at the Lorraine Motel. Wrestling with his next speech and desperately craving a coffee and cigarette, enters Camae, the motel’s quick witted, attractive maid supplied with refreshment and some down home, tell-it-like-it-is wisdom. Their teasing banter soon leads to powerful exchanges on family, race, love, mortality, and legacy. Funny, tender, and at times magical, Katori Hall’s play is a poignant reflection of the father, husband, and devoted man behind the legend.

Play

Latin History For Morons

3/12/27 - 4/4/27 at the Max and Rochelle Levit Stage
Stages / The Gordy

Alarmed that his son is only getting half the story from his Euro-centric history classes, one father launches an audacious, laugh-out-loud bid to cover 3,000 years of Latin and Indigenous history, from ancient pre-Columbian societies to the modern mosaic tapestry that’s come since. Along the way, empires rise and fall, imperial conquests end in revolutions, and this ambitious crash course barrels ahead with breakneck speed. Equal parts historic and satiric, this electrifying one-man comedy proves that the whole story has never been more urgently needed or more entertainingly delivered.
