With four Mainstage shows, two Constellation for Kids productions, and one special event, the company’s 5th Anniversary Season offers something for audiences of all ages.
Heist
Constellation will kick off its season with Heist by Arun Lakra, running September 3-20, 2026 at the Waldron Auditorium. Originally commissioned at Constellation by Susan and David Jones, the thriller has since gone on to gross millions at box offices across North America. Inspired by films like Ocean's Eleven and The Sting, the play follows a group of criminals reunited for one final high-stakes job.
Goosebumps The Musical: Phantom of the Auditorium
This fall, the company will celebrate Halloween season with Goosebumps The Musical: Phantom of the Auditorium, based on the popular books by R. L. Stine. The musical mystery for kids, tweens, and families runs October 30-November 15, 2026 at the Waldron Auditorium.
Annie
For the holidays, Constellation returns to the Waldron Arts Center with its annual Family Holiday Musical, Annie. The beloved musical follows an optimistic young orphan searching for a place to call home and will run December 10, 2026-January 3, 2027.
The ConstelLate Show: Holiday Special
Alongside Annie, Constellation is introducing a new holiday special event: The ConstelLate Show: Holiday Special. Described as part talk show and part variety show, the production will feature rotating guests, local personalities, and live monitors to create an immersive late-night television experience. The production runs December 17-27, 2026 in the Waldron Firebay.
An Enemy of the People
The company will ring in the new year with An Enemy of the People, Amy Herzog’s Tony-nominated adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s classic drama. The production, which explores truth, power, and corruption in a small town, runs February 4-21, 2027 at the Waldron Auditorium.
Mojo & Jimmy: The Totally Awesome Magic Show
This spring, Constellation will present the United States premiere of Mojo & Jimmy: The Totally Awesome Magic Show at the PB&J Cafe, Constellation’s Dinner Theater for Kids. Originally developed at Constellation before appearing at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and Adelaide Fringe, the production was created by World Champion of Magic Simon Coronel and Dom Chambers, an America’s Got Talent semi-finalist. The show runs March 26-April 11, 2027.
The Cottage
Closing out the Mainstage season is The Cottage by Sandy Rustin, a farce set in the English countryside that follows the fallout of an affair gone wrong. The production runs May 13-30, 2027 at the Waldron Auditorium.
Constellation also announced the launch of the Stage Door Circle, a Sunday playgoing club for women of all ages. Members will attend first Sunday afternoon performances of Constellation’s Mainstage productions and gather afterward for social receptions.
