Coming This Summer

Next Act’s 2023-24 season ends on May 19 when our production of THE TREASURER closes. In the nearly four months before our 2024-25 season opens, however, there’s still plenty happening at our building! Next Act Theatre will be home to a number of rental productions during the summer of 2024 – learn about some of the shows that will keep our space busy!

From May 30 to June 1, Brew City Opera will present Mozart’s COSI FAN TUTTE. This comic masterpiece of an opera is full of lust, confusion, deceit and lots of laughs.

Then, Bombshell Theatre Company’s summer season begins June 7 with their production of JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH. A delightfully offbeat adaptation of the classic Roald Dahl adventure, this musical is the first of five productions offered by Bombshell at Next Act Theatre’s performance space this coming summer.

Next, Bombshell will present FROZEN JR., based on the hit Disney animated movie and subsequent Broadway musical. This production will feature students from the Bombshell Youth Theatre Program.

On June 15, Bombshell will present THE 24 HOUR MUSICAL, a fundraiser where performers and production team members will mount a full-scale musical production with only 24 hours of rehearsal.

From July 17 to 28, Robert Grede’s RIP – A MUSICAL COMEDY OF LIFE & DEATH makes its premiere. It is directed by Alan Piotrowicz, who previously designed lighting for nine Next Act productions.

There’s even more to come this summer, including two more Bombshell productions in August. Tickets for all these rental productions are now on sale on our website. Visit now to find more information and purchase tickets!
