RENT (30th Anniversary)
JULY 24 – AUGUST 15
Thirty years ago, RENT ignited Broadway like a lightning bolt — a raw, raucous, Pulitzer Prize–winning love letter that gave voice to the misfits, the rebels, the ones who loved without permission. Three decades later, its fire still burns.
In the East Village, a patchwork of outsiders fight to create and survive in a city that’s forgotten them. They turn struggle into art and fear into defiance. Through loss, love, and the noise of the city, they find strength together in the face of adversity.
Based on Puccini’s masterpiece, La Bohème, and fueled by its electric rock score and unflinching humanity, RENT is one of the most influential musicals of the 20th century, reimagined this season with the bold artistry of Flat Rock Playhouse. Join the revolution. No Day But Today.
Event Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM

SPAMALOT gallops back to the Peace Center in a hilarious new revival direct from Broadway. Featuring a book and lyrics by Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle, the original production won three Tony Awards® in 2005, including Best Musical.
The side-splitting musical comedy is lovingly ripped off from the film classic, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and has everything that makes a great knight at the theater, from flying cows to killer rabbits, British royalty to French taunters, dancing girls, rubbery shrubbery, and of course, the Lady of the Lake.
Spamalot is recommended for ages 8+.

Pour a drink and duck for cover — domestic bliss is about to get messy.
Meet Felix: impeccably pressed, emotionally distressed, and suddenly single. Meet Oscar: charmingly rumpled, habitually late, and blissfully allergic to coasters. When Felix moves in with his old pal Oscar after a marital meltdown, neatness meets nonsense, and the sparks fly.
Ashtrays overflow, tempers flare, and laughter fills the living room in Neil Simon’s effervescent comedy of friendship, forgiveness, and the fine art of driving each other crazy. The Odd Couple is a classic cocktail of chaos and charm. Proof that opposites attract…
so long as they don’t share a kitchen.

When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a crime, she hides out in the last place anyone would look — a convent. Suddenly, the sequins are swapped for habits, and the nightclub turns into a nave. But when Deloris brings her unholy amount of soul to the choir loft, heaven gets a whole new groove.
Sister Act is a holy-rolling, soul-lifting celebration of sisterhood, second chances, and songs that raise the roof. As Deloris helps the sisters find their voices, they just might change her heart in return.
Part divine comedy, part disco revival, it’s proof that a little funk — and a lot of faith — can turn any sanctuary into a showstopper.

(A Playhouse Jr. Licensing New Work)
A world premiere musical spun from the Grimm Brothers’ classic — a tale of gold, grit, and a touch of magic, set to a captivating score that fuses folk, rap, and percussion.
The kingdom is in crisis, the villagers are hungry, and their future rests in the hands of a poor miller’s daughter. Her only hope is a daring bargain with a mysterious stranger — one that tests the worth of a name, the power of trust, and the courage to spark change.
This new musical explores the cost of greed and the grace of kindness, reminding us that what truly matters can’t be measured in gold.
Be the first to experience a brand-new American musical by Ben Mackel, developed through the Playhouse Jr. Licensing New Works Initiative. Created entirely under our roof, this world premiere offers new theatre for all — big and small — continuing a bright new chapter of storytelling from the Playhouse’s stage to the world’s.
