Orpheum Sets 2015-16 Broadway Season: MATILDA, 'GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE' & More

On Saturday, March 28th, the Orpheum Theatre formally announced its highly-anticipated 2015-2016 Broadway Season. The scheduled lineup will kick off with the 2013 Tony Award-winning lush new production of Rodgers + Hammerstein's CINDERELLA, followed by the 2013 Tony Award winner for Best Musical Revival PIPPIN, Disney's NEWSIES, MATILDA THE MUSICAL, the 2014 Tony Award winner for Best Musical A GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO LOVE & MURDER, and BULLETS OVER BROADWAY.

By popular demand, THE BOOK OF MORMON, which played a record breaking one-week run in 2014, returns to Memphis for a limited engagement March 15 - 20, 2016 as an option. Ticket package holders receive priority ticket opportunities to all shows, so adding THE BOOK OF MORMON to a season package is the best way to guarantee seats to this award-winning production.

"We're very proud of this year's selection of shows," said Orpheum President and CEO Pat Halloran. "This exciting season offers patrons everything: Broadway hits, Tony Award winners, comedies, family-friendly productions, and several Memphis premieres."

For the first time, the Orpheum will also offer a "Pick 4" Season Ticket Holder option in addition to its full Season Ticket Package. Season ticket holders may choose four or all six shows to complete a customized package. THE BOOK OF MORMON may be included in either season ticket package as an add-on.

In addition to up to 20% savings on a full 6-show package compared to individual ticket prices, season ticket packages include many subscriber benefits such as ticket exchange and resale opportunities; a Subscriber Perks Card, which provides patrons with discounts to our VIP Partner businesses; and optional pre-paid discount parking. Season ticket holders who opt to purchase all six shows will enjoy exclusive added benefits, including the best possible ticket prices and seat locations as well as tickets to the Orpheum's Summer Movie Series.

Current Season Ticket Holders can expect to receive renewal information in the mail by mid-April. Season ticket packages will go on sale to the general public in May, and new Season Ticket Holders will have the opportunity to purchase online, by phone at 901.525.3000, at the Orpheum Box Office or at the Orpheum Ticket Counter at The Booksellers at Laurelwood.
