Performing Arts Fort Worth is thrilled to announce its 2020-2021 Broadway at the Bass Season at Bass Performance Hall! The seven-show series features exciting new titles direct from Broadway, freshly revamped revivals and multiple Tony Award-winners. Current 2019-2020 Broadway at the Bass season ticket holders have until March 6 to renew and keep their seats. New season tickets go on sale April 15. Patrons can sign up for the new season ticket waitlist now by visiting www.basshall.com/waitlist.
The season is anchored by two of Broadway’s biggest blockbusters: Disney’s THE LION KING and DEAR EVAN HANSEN. Winner of six Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, THE LION KING has been seen by more than 100 million people around the world and now Fort Worth’s best-loved musical returns to Bass Hall in January, 2021. Called “one of the most remarkable shows in musical theater history” by The Washington Post, pop culture phenomenon DEAR EVAN HANSEN - winner of six Tony Awards, including Best Musical – makes its Bass Hall debut in February, 2021.
The season also includes the only North Texas appearance of the Lincoln Center Theater production of Lerner & Loewe’s MY FAIR LADY, “a sumptuous new production of the most perfect musical of all time” (Entertainment Weekly); an all-new production of CATS, the record-breaking musical spectacular by
Andrew Lloyd Webber; Elton John and Tim Rice’s AIDA, the Tony Award-winning hit musical from Disney; the Tony Award-winning musical with 35 smash hits through six decades of stardom, THE CHER SHOW; and the reimagined production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s OKLAHOMA!, winner of the 2019
Tony Award for Best Musical Revival.
In addition, Performing Arts Fort Worth will welcome a trio of audience favorites as Season Add-Ons: the global smash hit, THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES; Broadway’s razzle-dazzle sensation, CHICAGO; and WAITRESS, an uplifting celebration of friendship, motherhood and the magic of a well-made pie.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to introduce this season to Fort Worth,” says Dione Kennedy, President & CEO of Performing Arts Fort Worth. “These are some of the biggest and most popular titles ever seen on a Broadway stage. Each has been recognized with Tony Award wins, nominations or related awards. It’s
truly an outstanding lineup of award-winning productions.”
