Arizona Broadway Theatre will kick off its 20th season of live performances in the West Valley with a new lineup of productions.

The season opens in October and includes seven shows ranging from classics like “Hello, Dolly!” and family favorites like “Beauty and the Beast” to award-winning musicals like “Million Dollar Quartet.” The season also includes the regional premiere of “Tootsie.”

“We are enormously grateful for the years of support our community has given us especially as we celebrate our 20th season together,” Kiel Klaphake, Arizona Broadway Theatre CEO, shared in a press release. “It feels like just yesterday we opened our first production in a tent at the Peoria Sports Complex because construction on our building was not finished. We have come a long way since then and are very excited about the future.”

The 466-seat Arizona Broadway Theatre is located at 7701 W. Paradise Lane in the Northwest Valley. It provides dining and professional theater.

The 2024-25 season includes:

“Million Dollar Quartet”: Oct. 4-Nov. 2

The show brings Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley together for an irresistible tale of broken promises, secrets, betrayal and celebrations.

“Beauty & the Beast”: Nov. 15-Dec. 29

In the grand tradition of “The Little Mermaid,” “The Wizard of Oz” and “A Christmas Carol,” the show includes expansive sets, crafted costumes, a large chorus, and more. The tale reminds audiences to look beyond one’s exterior and find beauty from within.

“Hello, Dolly!”: Jan. 17-Feb. 21, 2025
