Orange County Performing Arts Center Unveils 2010-2011 Broadway Season

Wall-to-wall hits mark the Center's 2010-2011 Broadway and Curtain Call Series as well as a special Bonus Event. The Broadway Series includes Lincoln Center Theater's seven-time Tony®-Award winning South Pacific, The Public Theater's Tony Award-winning production of Hair, an exhilarating new show from Cirque du Soleil, the return of Broadway's biggest blockbuster Wicked, the Orange County debut of Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's enchanting Mary Poppins and the compelling new Broadway revival of Leonard Bernstein's powerful West Side Story.

The Curtain Call Series brings Disney's Beauty and the Beast; the Center premieres of Rock of Ages, an arena-rock love story told through the mind-blowing, face-melting hits of Journey, Night Ranger, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Pat Benatar, Twisted Sister, Poison, Asia, Whitesnake and many more; plus Dolly Parton's hilarious 9 to 5: The Musical. And as a Bonus Event, the Center welcomes back Mamma Mia!, the global sensation featuring the music of ABBA.  

Center President Terry Dwyer said, "The Center has a great Broadway Season lined up for 2010 - 2011, with 10 shows that encompass much-loved classics, eagerly-awaited revivals and several of the newest shows and productions that have lately taken Broadway and the musical theater world by storm. It's the kind of season that our audience has come to expect from the Center, one that showcases the richness and variety of the musical theater tradition."
