Today, Broadway at the Hobby Center announced a new two-year agreement with BBVA Compass for the upcoming 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 seasons of touring productions. The partnership enables Houstonians to experience the best Broadway performances in their own backyard.

"Our support reflects the bank's ongoing efforts to bring the arts to people in our communities," said BBVA Compass Houston CEO Mark Montgomery. "The arts exemplify our overall mission of living bright. Houston is a city steeped in culture and these Broadway performances, showcased in a premiere performing arts facility, add to that historic reputation."

The series will be known as BBVA Compass Broadway at the Hobby Center. The 2016-2017 season kicks-off on October 6 with four performances of the farewell tour of MAMMA MIA! followed by the Tony Award- winning JERSEY BOYS in November. To learn more about the season, click here.

The smash-hit HAMILTON is the only production known to-date for the future 2017-2018 season. Remaining shows will be announced in January 2017.
