TUTS Advisory Board Member @ShopDavidPeck recently welcomed Tony Award winner Kelli O'Hara to Inside the Design Studio! David and Kelli first connected when she joined our Lights Up! Gala—and he designed a stunning gown for the occasion, perfectly timed with our upcoming premiere of Disney’s Frozen. Now, they’re teaming up again for a conversation on The Gilded Age, her career, and the power of risk-taking in creativity. We love seeing the TUTS community come together for inspiring collaborations like this! Join us at the Lights Up! Gala on November 7 at The Post Oak Hotel—it's going to be unforgettable! https://lnkd.in/gH4eqZKb

It’s thrilling to get to see my new theatre home and my old theatre home working together!

We are heartbroken by the passing of U.S. Congressman and former Houston Mayor, Sylvester Turner. He was an avid supporter of the arts and we are so grateful for the light he brought to our Houston stages.

Sugar, butter, co-production! This production of Waitress is baking up something special with our friends at The 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle! Take a look at the rehearsal process as we put the final touches on this delicious show for our Seattle audiences - then we'll travel to Houston for our run at TUTS in April! Get ready for a fresh slice of musical magic, served up with all the heart (and harmonies) you love. Stay tuned for more behind-the-scenes moments as Waitress gets ready to take the stage in Texas!

On Sunday at MKT Bar, we gave some of our biggest fans and supporters an exclusive first look at the new season—complete with performances by Houston artists, insights from our Artistic Director, and time to connect with staff and friends. We’re so grateful for this incredible community that makes musical theatre possible in Houston!

BUCKLE UP! Our 25/26 season is going to be a blast! Take off on a whirlwind adventure where words hold power, music shapes history, and dreams defy time. From knightly chaos to rock ‘n’ roll legends, snowy serenades to high-voltage thrills, this season invites you to experience the magic of every era—one unforgettable moment at a time.

Stay tuned ??
