Wagon Wheel Center For The Arts Unveils CATS, CAROUSEL, and More for 2026 Summer Season
The Warsaw, IN theater-in-the-round venue will also stage DIAL M FOR MURDER, and ANYTHING GOES, with season subscriptions available now.
Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts has announced its 2026 professional summer season, featuring five productions running June through August in Warsaw, Indiana.
Known for its theatre-in-the-round staging, Wagon Wheel Professional Theatre presents productions in an intimate setting where no audience member sits more than 10 rows from the stage. The company has also built a national reputation, with more than 25 alumni currently performing on Broadway and on national tours.
