——-

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A storybook season awaits as the nonprofit Tennessee Performing Arts Center® announces its 2025-26 HCA Healthcare/TriStar Health Broadway at TPAC season, presented in partnership with Nissan and Farm Bureau Health Plans, as part of its 45th Anniversary.

The upcoming season features six Nashville premieres, plus the return of a classic fairy tale and the revolutionary re-telling of American history, with two-week engagements of Disney’s BEAUTY AND THE BEAST and HAMILTON. The lineup celebrates stories that range American theatre’s past, present and future with the groundbreaking twist on The Wizard of Oz, THE WIZ; the brilliant, passionate and funny American women who fought tirelessly for the right to vote, SUFFS; the beloved, cinematic classic that is now a Broadway musical, BACK TO THE FUTURE: THE MUSICAL; the life-chasing, life-changing trip of a lifetime, SOME LIKE IT HOT; the bestselling novel with a poignant reminder that life – and love – can begin again at any age, WATER FOR ELEPHANTS; and the coming-of-age story that takes you to Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1967, Tony Award-winning Best Musical, THE OUTSIDERS.

 

In addition, TPAC will present three limited return engagement presentations, including the world’s most popular musical, LES MISÉRABLES; the global sensation that remixes five hundred years of historic heartbreak told by the six wives of Henry VIII, SIX; and the outrageous musical comedy of a mismatched pair of missionaries sent halfway across the world to spread the Good Word, THE BOOK OF MORMON.

“For 45 years, TPAC has brought stories to life on our stages, creating unforgettable memories and fostering connections that inspire and entertain. This milestone 45th Anniversary season celebrates the transformative power of live theatre, featuring timeless classics and groundbreaking new works that honor our past, reflect our present, and look toward the future as America approaches its 250th birthday,” says Jennifer Turner, TPAC President and CEO.

“We invite audiences to join us on this remarkable journey through American storytelling, reinforcing TPAC’s role as a cultural cornerstone for Tennessee and a premier destination for extraordinary performing arts experiences.”

Tennessee Performing Arts Center announces 24/25 Broadway Season; Music City premieres of ‘Moulin Rouge’, ‘Clue’, ‘MJ’ and ‘Kimberly Akimbo’ among shows coming to TPAC

February 20, 2024 by Jonathan

At 10am on Tuesday, February 20, Tennessee Performing Arts Center announced their upcoming 2024/2025 Broadway at TPAC season. Included in the announcement are six Music City premieres and two returning favorites.

Just a couple weeks ago, when TPAC began teasing their 24/25 Season Announcement as 1 Spectacular Season, they did so by revealing one of the six premiere productions headed to Music City as Moulin Rouge! What’s more, it will be in Nashville for a special two-week engagement October 8-20, 2024.

Back in December, another of the six coming premieres was announced early when it was revealed that the National Tour of Shucked would be coming to TPAC’s Jackson Hall November 5-10 of 2024. Not only is Shucked coming to TPAC, it’s also kicking off the National Tour with the Nashville dates, which makes perfect sense considering Music City is home to both Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, the show’s composers.

With the official announcement hitting their socials first thing Tuesday morning, the rest of the season was unveiled. Below are details about each show taken directly from TPAC’s Season Announcement:
