Welcome to the highly anticipated 25/26 season at the Gallo Center for the Arts!

It is with great joy and gratitude that we invite you on another unforgettable journey of world-class performances, inspiring storytelling, and the shared arts experiences that bring our community together.

This season promises to be one of our most thrilling yet, featuring extraordinary talent from Broadway, music, comedy, and beyond. Following a scorching summer lineup that includes Gipsy Kings, Ginuwine & Montell Jordan, Air Supply, Tracy Lawrence, and others, we will officially kick off 25/26 with two comic giants, Jay Leno and Arsenio Hall, together for two unforgettable shows on September 13.

Broadway lovers will be delighted by three spectacular new touring productions coming to the Center for the first time—the heartwarming and hysterical Mrs. Doubtfire, the hilariously haunting new stage adaptation of Clue, and the electrifying Tina – The Tina Turner Musical, celebrating one of the greatest music icons ever.

We are honored to welcome back everyone’s favorite Disney princess, Lea Salonga, whose unmistakable voice has enchanted audiences worldwide, and Grammywinner Lila Downs, whose captivating style beautifully blends traditional and contemporary Latin music. Country fans will rejoice with the return of Clay Walker, while comedy enthusiasts can look forward to the Gallo Center debut of renowned actor and comedian, Marlon Wayans. Other household names, including Joss Stone, Boz Scaggs, Theresa Caputo, and NPR’s Ari Shapiro, round out an all-star season filled with amazing moments.

Additionally, we are presenting two unique and historic engagements: Celebrated actor Richard Thomas will take on the role of Mark Twain in Mark Twain Tonight!, continuing the legacy of the late Hal Holbrook in this beloved theatrical masterpiece. And, in an event like no other, the iconic Morgan Freeman will grace our stage to narrate his groundbreaking new show, Morgan Freeman’s Symphonic Blues Experience —a fusion of storytelling and music that is sure to be the talk of season.

Our truly remarkable 25/26 season reaffirms our commitment to bringing the very best in arts and entertainment to our community. On behalf of our dedicated team at the Gallo Center, thank you for your continued support. We cannot wait to create lifelong memories with you!
