Letter from CTG Leadership
Dear Center Theatre Group family,
Our 59th season is driven by fearless storytelling, unforgettable characters, and artists who both capture this moment and shape what comes next. From Broadway and the West End to timeless classics and bold new voices, the 2026/27 Season is one we hope is destined for greatness and inspires you through belly laughs, touching moments of revelation, and celebration of community.
Our season begins at the Ahmanson with the wildly funny, Tony Award-winning Oh, Mary! straight from Broadway, followed by a dynamic lineup that spans bold new voices and beloved classics. At the Taper, we present the exuberant Destiny of Desire by Karen Zacarías and Kimberly Belflower’s electrifying John Proctor is the Villain. The Ahmanson continues with the North American premiere of Mischief’s Christmas Carol Goes Wrong, National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene’s acclaimed Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish, and the joyful Broadway hit BOOP!® The Musical. We then complete August Wilson’s celebrated Century Cycle at CTG with his towering masterpiece Fences, and close the season with the world premiere musical The Turning—a haunting, folk-infused journey set in a secluded wellness retreat in the California wilderness—bringing the season to a powerful and unforgettable conclusion at the Taper.
Our CTG:FWD programming expands the experience even further with special events and bonus shows, including the return of Dog Man: The Musical and Clue, as well as Meredith Willson’s The Music Man and Riverdance 30 – The New Generation—and this is all just the beginning with a lineup at the Kirk Douglas Theatre to be announced later this summer.
For priority early access to the best seats and pricing for a season of shows that you will only see at CTG, subscribe today! I look forward to seeing you at the theatre.
