2018-2019 Season

1819-season-top-graphic.jpg

PRESENTING OUR 2018-2019 SEASON 

It’s always exciting announcing a new season! After months of deliberation and negotiations, we codified a long wish-list into the final package of titles that will find life on our stages.

Our 2018-2019 Season represents a broad spectrum of theatrical choices from the recent to the golden age of the Broadway musical. On our Mainstage, a particular highlight of the season will be the back-to-back productions of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s first mega-hit, EVITA, followed by one of the all-time great favorites of the musical stage, Lerner and Loewe’s, MY FAIR LADY. Adding to the Mainstage experience are the chart-topping songs from the fifties and sixties by the hit writing team of Leiber and Stoller, with their high struttin’ revue, SMOKEY JOE’S CAFÉ. For those of you who love a good play along with the big musicals, we’ve found a little jewel about finding the spark of love near the end of life’s rainbow, in Joe DiPietro’s, THE LAST ROMANCE. And, to end the Mainstage season, we’re joining forces once again with Walnut Street Theatre to produce the jubilant Broadway musical based on the hit movie, LEGALLY BLONDE.

On the intimate Waxlax Stage, we’re mounting one of the most compelling musicals of recent years, the Pulitzer Prize winning, NEXT TO NORMAL. Critics have called NEXT TO NORMAL one of the best musicals of the 21st century, and viewing it in the confines of the WAX should be a remarkable theatrical experience. Also, in the WAX you’ll be able to engage in the fertile mind of playwright Michael Hollinger’s, GHOSTWRITER. This is a play about the meaning of truth and should have our audience debating the meaning of that very timely question long after the curtain falls. 

I hope you’ll plan on joining us next season as we celebrate our 45th season here in Vero Beach. Subscribe now for the best seats in the house!

Instantly smitten by an elegant, mature woman, Carol, he turns on the charm hoping for a second chance at love. Defying Carol's reticence, Ralph embarks on a journey to regain the happiness that seemed all but lost. The Last Romance is a heart-warming comedy about finding love at any age.

One of the most successful and award-winning musicals in Broadway history, My Fair Lady is an endearing tale that charms audiences with its warmth and vivid characters.

Embarking on a social experiment, sparks fly in the most unexpected places in this clash of cultures. With witty dialogue and jubilant songs including “I Could Have Danced All Night,” “On the Street Where You Live,” “The Rain in Spain,” and “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face,” My Fair Lady is frequently called, “the perfect musical.”
