For its 29th year, WaterTower Theatre in Addison is promising "a story for every season" and, as such, has not provided actual performance dates.

The 2024-25 season is the fifth programmed by producing artistic director Shane Peterman and associate producer Elizabeth Kensek.

Fall begins with Jane Wagner’s ever-timely and iconic one-woman show The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe.

Under the guidance of the narrator, a role originated by Lily Tomlin, the audience is treated to a mischievously clever observer of the society around her. The play, directed by Ashley Puckett Gonzales, examines American society, art, and human connectivity and explores the feminist movement.

Winter brings the return of WTT's smash hit The Play That Goes Wrong, co-produced with Stage West in Fort Worth.

The regional premiere of Henry Lewis, Henry Shields, and Jonathan Sayer's comedy had a completely sold-out run at WTT two seasons ago. Harry B. Parker returns to direct.

Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), this hilarious hybrid of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes was a hit on Broadway.

Blanche du Bois arrives with the spring, in Tennessee Williams' American classic A Streetcar Named Desire, directed by Terry Martin.

After losing her Mississippi home to creditors, Blanche du Bois relocates to the New Orleans home of her younger sister and brother-in-law, Stella and Stanley Kowalski. Undermined by romantic illusions, Blanche is unable to cope with life's harsh realities. Though she finds a glimmer of hope while connecting with Stanley's gentlemanly friend, Mitch, Blanche cannot face the truth of her own troubled past and ultimately descends into madness.

Summer closes the season with School of Rock, based on the Paramount movie by Mike White.

The Andrew Lloyd Webber musical (yes, really) follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn a few extra bucks by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight-A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out?

With a book by Julian Fellowes and lyrics by Glenn Slater, WTT's production will be directed by JC Schuster with associate direction/choreography by Alli Betsill and music direction by Cody Dry.

"As we enter our 29th season at WaterTower Theatre, what may be described as our summer or 'high' season, we are humbled by the opportunity to share stories of humanity that shed light on every season of life," says Peterman. "I am pleased to bring to you another beautiful series of stories that I hope will inspire and entertain you while highlighting the beautiful professional theater makers and artists here in North Texas. Indeed, a story for every season and every person.”
