Season Announcement

Shucked, & Juliet + more fly into Broadway Dallas' 2024-25 season

Get ready, musical theater fans: Broadway Dallas just announced its 2024-25 season, and it's a doozy.

Done in partnership with Broadway Across America, the season includes eight subscriber-eligible shows and two season add-ons. In the mix are four Dallas premieres and the return of several audience favorites.

It launches with the Tony Award-winning musical comedy Shucked, which made a statement on Broadway with its clever marketing and recently announced its New York closure.

The musical began life at the Dallas Theater Center in 2015 as Moonshine: That Hee-Haw Musical but has since evolved into the "corn-fed, corn-bred American musical" that will play the Music Hall at Fair Park December 3-15, 2024.

The series continues with the high-flying musical that has been thrilling audiences of all ages for close to 70 years. A newly reimagined Peter Pan is being brought back to life in a new adaptation by celebrated playwright Larissa FastHorse, directed by Emmy Award winner Lonny Price, and choreography by Lorin Latarro. It plays the Music Hall December 25, 2024-January 5, 2025.

& Juliet flips the script on the greatest love story ever told, with a book by Schitt's Creek writer David West Read and a score composed of pop anthems like "Since U Been Gone," "Baby One More Time," and "Roar."

The musical asks: What would happen next if Juliet didn’t end it all over Romeo? She ditches her famous ending for a fresh beginning and a second chance at life and love — her way. It plays the Music Hall January 28-February 9, 2025.

Back to the Future: The Musical is adapted for the stage by the iconic film’s creators Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis and directed by Tony Award winner John Rando. Original music by multi-Grammy winners Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard joins hit songs from the movie, including “The Power of Love,” “Johnny B. Goode,” “Earth Angel,” and “Back in Time.”

When Marty McFly finds himself transported back to 1955 in a time machine built by the eccentric scientist Doc Brown, he accidentally changes the course of history. Now he’s in a race against time to fix the present, escape the past, and send himself ... back to the future. It runs March 18-30, 2025, at the Music Hall.

Two familiar favorites are up next: Mamma Mia! April 15-27, 2025, and Disney's The Lion King for a nice long run June 4-July 3, 2025. Both play the Music Hall, and both are a guaranteed good time.

Broadway Dallas heads to the Winspear Opera House for Life of Pi, the astonishing Broadway and West End sensation told with jaw-dropping visuals, world-class puppetry, and exquisite stagecraft.

After a shipwreck in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, a 16-year-old boy named Pi survives on a lifeboat with four companions: a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan, and a Royal Bengal tiger. It runs August 5-17, 2025.

Prior to its planned Broadway bow, a new production of The Wiz is touring the country.

This groundbreaking twist on The Wizard of Oz changed the face of Broadway, from its iconic score packed with soul, gospel, rock, and finger-snapping ‘70s funk to its stirring tale of Dorothy’s journey to find her place in a contemporary world. A dynamite infusion of ballet, jazz, and modern pop brings a whole new groove to easing on down the road. It plays the Music Hall, September 9-21, 2025.

The first season add-on is the return of Come From Away, the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded 9/11 passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them.

Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships. It runs at the Winspear Opera House, January 14-19, 2025.

Hadestown is the second add-on, intertwining two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back.

The winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards, it plays the Music Hall, February 25-March 2, 2025.

Miranda Lambert's 'Velvet Rodeo' wardrobe stars in new DFW exhibition

“Miranda Lambert: Velvet Rodeo” will open on November 7 at the National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame.

Country star Miranda Lambert is bringing a bit of Las Vegas glamour and bling to North Texas. Her one-of-a-kind wardrobe from her "Velvet Rodeo" residency will go on display at the National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame in Fort Worth when its new Icons Gallery opens November 7.

According to a release, the exhibition, called "Miranda Lambert: Velvet Rodeo," was created in collaboration with Lambert, and will feature costumes from the singer's Las Vegas residency, which ran from September 2022 to April 2024.

Lambert said her inspiration came from an earlier visit to the Fort Worth museum, where she spotted historic Western pieces that she photographed and sent to her stylist, Tiffany Gifford. They combined those influences with the glitz of Elvis Presley's heyday to create the "Velvet Rodeo" wardrobe.

“Seeing these pieces now have a life beyond the stage as part of the Museum’s new Icons Gallery feels really full circle and special,” Lambert said in a statement.

Visitors will now have the opportunity to study garments usually seen in motion and under stage lights, appreciating the details that help transform clothing into an essential part of a performance.

The Icons Gallery is part of the Museum’s 16,000-square-foot expansion, which introduces new galleries and experiences that explore the accomplishments and influence of women of the West. The $19 million expansion features a new entrance facing Dickies Arena, new galleries including a photography gallery, an event space accommodating up to 250, and the new Cowgirl Carousel.

Lambert, who was inducted into the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in 2021, is an active mounted shooting competitor and horsewoman, giving her a connection to the West that reaches beyond her music. "Velvet Rodeo" brings together Lambert's identity as a cowgirl and her creative expression as a performer.

“Miranda’s confidence, determination and independence make her a wonderful representative of the women we honor,” says Pat Riley, executive director of the National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame, in the release. “Opening our Icons Gallery with this collaboration celebrates her accomplishments while giving visitors a new way to connect with a cowgirl they know and admire.”

According to a museum spokesperson, the temporary exhibition will remain on display for at least one year; no specific end date was given.

In preparation for the expansion grand opening, the Cowgirl will be closed to the public beginning October 19 and will reopen November 7, with a members-only preview at 10 am and a public opening at noon.
