NEW SEASON TICKETS ON SALE MAY 2!

Be the first in line! Join the Priority List now at ORPHEUM-MEMPHIS.COM

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT & CEO Dear Friends, It is one of my favorite times of the year again! That period when we still have shows left on the current Broadway Season, and we have announced the upcoming Broadway productions for the following year. I like this stretch because we are telling everyone that the Orpheum Theatre, at the corner of Main and Beale in Memphis, Tennessee, is THE place to see great theatre direct from New York City. As you read this, we are advertising eleven different Broadway hits at the same time!.

Welcome to Some Like It Hot, a wonderful retooling of the classic film of the same name. This is a show the Orpheum Theatre Group helped bring to the Broadway stage, as a co-producer with our Independent Presenter Network colleagues. We could not be more proud of our efforts. It has singing, tap dancing, slapstick comedy, and terrific performances – everything a great, big musical should have!

Next up is the Tony Award - winning Kimberly Akimbo. This is another one that we co-produced.

In fact, it provided us with our fifth Tony Award when it took home the Best Musical nod. A sweet, lovely little musical that will make you laugh and pull at your heart strings, I strongly encourage you not to miss this one in June. I promise that it will be one of the best evenings you will have spent in the theatre in a long, long time.

Then in July, the current season concludes with a return of The Wiz! I don’t think I need to tell you what this tale is about. Get your tickets now as it is destined to sell out!

On to the 2025-2026 Broadway Season – eight great shows with something for everybody! A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical, The Notebook, & Juliet, The Outsiders, Six, Back to the Future, The Sound of Music, and Disney’s Beauty and the Beast! What a line-up! If we were playing baseball, it would definitely be pennant-worthy in its talent.

At the moment, Season Tickets for new subscribers are not yet available, but we have a way for you to be first in line to buy them when they go on sale! With a $100 deposit, which will be credited to your purchase, you can join our Priority List. Doing this will let you participate in a 48-hour pre-sale for new subscribers. In other words, you will have first choice of seats if you join the Priority List now. Visit our website, orpheum-memphis.com, for more details.

Enjoy this performance of Some Like It Hot. Do not miss Kimberly Akimbo and The Wiz. Join the Priority List for 2025-2026!

If you do all these things, you will have another wonderful 16 months of bountiful Broadway entertainment on your calendar. What could be better than that?

Brett Batterson President & CEO Orpheum Theatre Group P.S.—Learn more about Kimberly Akimbo on page 39 of this Marquee!

THE TONY AWARD-WINNING

BEST MUSICAL

The 2023 Tony-winner for best musical, based on David Lindsay-Abaire’s play of the same title, revolves around a teenage girl named Kimberly Levaco, who suffers from a condition that rapidly accelerates the aging process. Before she has had a chance to venture forth into the world as an adult, she finds herself turning into an old woman. Her story, unfolding like a dark fairy tale, is as whimsical as it is piercing.

Yet the effect is powerfully life-affirming in the way it reminds audiences of the preciousness of the time we have at hand. Full of quirky humor and social satire on grownup immaturity, the musical features a score by Jeanine Tesori (music) and David Lindsay-Abaire (lyrics) that will leave you both grinning and deeply touched.
