Legally Blonde — The Musical will take you from the sorority house to the halls of justice with Broadway’s brightest heroine, Elle Woods. The story tackles stereotypes, sexism, snobbery, and scandal and proves kindness and staying true to yourself will always be a winning combination.

Working

The hopes, dreams, and struggles of the average working American are the focus of this unique, extraordinary musical. The everyday lives of those we often take for granted will surprise and inspire anyone who has ever punched a time clock.

Based on interviews with American workers, Working paints a vivid portrait of the men and women that keep our lives moving: the waitress, the schoolteacher, the millworker, the delivery boy, the trucker, the fireman and the housewife, just to name a few.

This musical will touch the hearts of everyone who has had a job, wants a job, or is judged by their job. In the end, we all “want something to point to and be proud of.”

Fosse

A celebration of the life and work of legendary director/ choreographer Bob Fosse, the show includes dance and musical numbers from his Broadway shows, feature films, and television specials. Memorable songs include Life is a Bowl of Cherries, Bye Bye Blackbird, Steam Heat, Mein Herr, Razzle Dazzle, Rich Man’s Frug, Mr. Bojangles, Sing Sing Sing, and many more. Showcasing the talented students in the South program, and featuring Fosse’s signature style, the show will be a treat for the whole family.

In the Heights

In the Heights tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood — a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music. It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams and pressures, where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take with you, and which ones you leave behind.

Songs For A New World

An abstract musical featuring a series of songs all sharing a common theme: the moment of decision.

This musical takes audience members on a whirlwind of diverse storytelling, from the comedy of Mrs. Claus’s lament over her ever-absent husband, to the unfathomable struggles faced by some of America’s first settlers.

In the words of songwriter-composer Jason Robert Brown himself, the musical’s message carries a profound meaning: “It’s about one moment. It’s about hitting the wall and having to make a choice, take a stand, or turn around and go back.”

Tickets: $15; available online ($1.75 convenience fee).

Beauty and the Beast

The classic tale of beautiful Belle and the impossible love of a cursed prince, an enchanted castle, and a single rose. This charming musical will be sure to delight audiences of all ages.

Tickets: $15; available at the Grand Theatre box office, 519-672-8800.

A Night at the Tonys

A Chorus Line

A Chorus Line chronicles the joy, despair and triumphs of a group of dancers as they audition for a Broadway show. This show is the original competitive reality show. South’s Musical Theatre Program has developed a reputation for high-quality performances and is very proud to be producing the London premier of this challenging and compelling show. A Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning musical, it has dazzled over 6 million people during its record-breaking 15-year run on Broadway, The themes may be timeless and familiar, but adult issues and language make this a show appropriate for those who do not have young and innocent ears.
