Dear Evan Hansen at Grand Theatre

Dear Evan Hansen

Following its hugely successful run at Broadway's Music Box Theater, this darkly comic musical is touring across the country once more. The six-time Tony-winning, poignant and thought-provoking production has received rave reviews from critics for its unexpectedly touching portrayal of misunderstood youth, young love, and the search for acceptance, with a score from the composing team behind 2017's Academy Award-winning La-La Land, Benj Pasek, and Justin Paul.

Mamma Mia! at Thrivent Hall

Mamma Mia!

Based around the hit songs of Abba, Mamma Mia! is the ultimate feel-good jukebox musical! Set on a Greek island, this sunny show centers on single mother Donna, whose daughter Sophie is about to get married. Little does Donna know that Sophie has invited three of her mother's former lovers to the wedding, in a quest to find out which one could be her father! Plenty of romantic shenanigans (and sparkly jumpsuits) ensue.

Hadestown at Grand Theatre

Hadestown

Cleaning up during the 2018/19 awards season, plucky folk opera Hadestown garnered eight Tony Awards (including the coveted Tony for Best Musical), four Drama Desk Awards, six Outer Critics Circle Awards, and a Drama League Award. This came as no surprise given the production received much acclaim during both its Off-Broadway and Broadway runs, praised for its soaring imagination, vibrant retelling of a classic story, and a sumptuous score that evokes smoky New Orleans jazz and bubbling Americana-tinged folk. Don't miss out when the lauded musical hits the road on this hotly anticipated national tour!
