The 2015-2016 season of North Park Lexus Broadway in San Antonio celebrates 25 years with 10 show-stopping productions, four market debuts and more season options than ever before.

North Park Lexus Broadway in San Antonio at the Majestic Theatre opens in September with the market debut of Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID. The beloved animated classic comes to life on stage with all the songs you love like "Under the Sea" and "Part Of Your World." In November, Cameron Mackintosh's spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's phenomenal musical success, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, returns to San Antonio. Hailed by critics as "bigger and better than ever before," this production boasts many exciting special effects including the show's legendary chandelier, new scenic and lighting designs, and new staging and choreography.

In December, by popular demand, THE BOOK OF MORMON, which played a record breaking three-week run in 2013 returns to San Antonio for a limited engagement.

January 2016 gets an exhilarating start with KINKY BOOTS, a musical that will lift your spirits to new high-heeled heights! Winner of 6 Tony Awards including BEST MUSICAL, it also features a joyous, Tony-winning score by Cyndi Lauper, direction and Tony-winning choreography by Jerry Mitchell and a hilarious, uplifting book by four-time Tony winner Harvey Fierstein.

In April, Rodgers + Hammerstein's CINDERELLA features an incredible orchestra, jaw-dropping transformations and all the moments you love - the pumpkin, the glass slipper, the masked ball - plus some surprising new twists! May welcomes MOTOWN THE MUSICAL, the true American dream story of Motown founder Berry Gordy's journey from featherweight boxer to the heavyweight music mogul who launched the careers of Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson and many more. In June, join Scarecrow, Tin Man, Lion, Dorothy and her little dog Toto, as they journey through the magical land of Oz to meet the Wizard and obtain their hearts' desires. THE WIZARD OF OZ is an enchanting adaptation of the all-time classic, totally reconceived for the stage.

Three season options give Broadway fans more variety. Subscribers can add these shows to their season package. The eye-popping spectacle Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, presented by NETworks, features unforgettable characters and dazzling production numbers. The international Irish dance phenomenon is back by popular demand in RIVERDANCE - THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR, an innovative and exciting blend of dance, music and song that comes directly to North America from a sold out run across Europe and Asia. Enjoy I LOVE LUCY LIVE ON STAGE, the brand-new hit stage show adapted from the most beloved program in television history! It's 1952 and you are a member of the Desilu Playhouse studio audience awaiting the filming of two hilarious and oh-so-familiar "I Love Lucy" episodes.

"This is a landmark season for the Majestic Theatre, celebrating 25 years of Broadway in San Antonio. This season once again celebrates the diversity of Broadway and brings its biggest hits along with widely-loved family classics to the Alamo city," says Mike Rilley, General Manager of the Majestic and Charline McCombs Empire Theatres. "We're thrilled to welcome the return of audience favorites like THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and look forward to bringing new shows that San Antonio is sure to enjoy like "Theatre Under The Stars' production of Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID and multiple Tony Award winner KINKY BOOTS."
