Transcendence Theatre Company presents their 2016 Broadway Under the Stars season-spectacular outdoor Broadway concerts in Sonoma Wine Country-running June 17 through September 11 in Jack London State Historic Park (2400 London Ranch Road, Glen Ellen, CA). Transcendence Theatre Company, named by USA Today's 10BEST as the #2 "Outdoor Concert Venue You Shouldn't Miss" in the United States, received twelve 2015 Broadway World San Francisco awards including Best Special Theater Event for the fourth consecutive year.

Transcendence's Broadway Under the Stars is an award-winning series of Broadway-inspired concerts featuring performers from New York and Los Angeles - artists who often come to the Sonoma stage directly from recent Broadway appearances. More than a standard musical revue, each show weaves well-known Broadway and popular songs into a spectacular themed performance in the open-air 150-year-old Winery Ruins at Jack London State Historic Park.

All events begin with picnicking amongst the vineyards of Jack London's historic Beauty Ranch Lawn - including gourmet food truck fare, an assortment of local wineries pouring, and pre-show music from local musicians - casting a magical spell of communal festivity and summer celebration. Sunset heralds the start of the show and the stage begins to sparkle as dusk descends and the Broadway stars sing and dance under a starlit nighttime sky.

Amy Miller, Artistic Director for Transcendence Theatre Company says: "We are thrilled to present our fifth season of programming to our incredible audiences. In addition to an expanded season with more performances than ever, we are excited to bring back many of our exceptionally talented artists, as well as introduce the Bay Area community to new artists and work. It's going to be the best summer ever and we thank our Transcendence Family of donors, sponsors and patrons for continuing to make it a reality."
