Rubicon Theatre Company has released production photos for their production of In the Heights, which opens October 29 and closes November 13. Performances are Wednesdays through Sundays at Rubicon’s home, the recently named Karyn Jackson Theatre. Check out photos of the production here.

Rehearsals are underway for the centerpiece of Rubicon Theatre Company's 2022-2023 “Welcome Home” Season – IN THE HEIGHTS by LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA (the creator of Hamilton) and QUIARA ALEGRÍA HUDES. Winner of Tony, Grammy and Olivier Awards, IN THE HEIGHTS is a heartfelt, hopeful, high-energy musical about community, neighborhood and finding where you belong.

Director Joseph Walsh has mounted this production fifteen years previously in the UK and Ireland, but he's brought a new production to Central Florida during a year that has been, to say the least, a difficult challenge for both the LGBTQ+ and local theatre communities.

Ghost Light Theatricals, a new artistic venture founded by Joseph C. Walsh, has announced its inaugural production of the Florida Premiere of Lilies: or the revival of a romantic drama, in partnership with Wild Oats Productions and Theatre South Playhouse.

This reimagined Man of La Mancha will feature Miguel Salas as Miguel Cervantes/Don Quixote, Annabell Mizrahi as Aldonza, and Radamés Medina Meléndez as Sancho.

Garden Theatre welcomes Central Florida audiences to the regional premiere of this sensational summer musical. Directed by Sara Catherine Barnes, The Bodyguard runs July 9 - August 1, 2021.

Overall, 'La Clemenza di Tito' is an interesting take on the beloved Mozart piece, though it feels very rough as a production, and the Kennedy Center's Eisenhower Theater may not be the ideal venue for this staging. But with a fabulous cast, team of dancers, and orchestra, it still makes for an enjoyable evening.

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts today announced its 2019–2020 theater season, with more than 15 productions from New York, London, and across the globe, plus original Kennedy Center productions.
