“Follow Your Heart”
Our 2025-2026 slate of shows — comprising Season 63 — will be another year of traditional happy endings, with strong characters reaching for their dreams. Our three mainstage musicals are all highly acclaimed, highly enjoyable productions, and they will again be supplemented by a pair of must-see concerts events. We open in the fall with the golden age musical The Sound of Music, which runs September 27 to October 18. For our winter musical, we bring you the Saratoga premiere of Little Women January 24 to February 14. And we close the season with a Tony-Award winning show that we are prohibited from announcing until September. That season-ender will be staged May 16 to June 6, 2026. In between, we also bring you an original Holiday Concert (December 20-21, 2025) and a concert version of On The 20th Century (April 18-19, 2026).
