Purchase Arena Stage’s 2022/23 Season Subscription

A Note From Our Artistic Director, Molly Smith

Dear Theater Lover,

Even with the continuing twists and turns of the pandemic, it has been invigorating to return to live theater this past year. And we have YOU to thank for making it all possible.

I’m incredibly excited to unveil our 2022/23 Season to you—my 25th as Artistic Director of Arena Stage! Reflective of our shared experience, it’s one of surviving and thriving; an affirmation of community bonds and identities.

The work you will see on our stages are a mix of classic and modern, comedy and drama, musicals and music-filled. They are all the absolute best in their classes, and encapsulate why Arena was founded: to use the galvanizing power of theater to explore who we are as Americans.

Read on to learn more about our upcoming season, as well as the many benefits of being an Arena Stage subscriber. I look forward to seeing you in the theater!

2022/23 Productions

Focused on American artists, Arena Stage’s productions are innovative and representative of stories from across the country. We nurture new plays and reimagine classics, celebrating our democracy and diversity through a multitude of voices to inspire people to action. We produce all that is passionate, exuberant, profound, entertaining, deep and dangerous in the American spirit. The 2022/23 season embodies all that and more with these 6 remarkable productions:

Holiday By Philip Barry Directed by Anita Maynard-Losh October 7 - November 6 An elegantly produced, sparkling romantic comedy set in the 1920s about haves, have-nots and pursuing a life worth living.	Sanctuary City By Martyna Majok October 21 - November 27 A new play about two immigrants who will do whatever it takes to establish a place for themselves and each other in America.
Ride the Cyclone Book, Music & Lyrics by Brooke Maxwell & Jacob Richmond Directed by Sarah Rasmussen Co-Production with McCarter Theatre Center January 13 - February 19 A quirky cult musical about six teenagers who, after dying in a freak amusement park accident, vie for the chance to sing their way back to life.	The High Ground By Nathan Alan Davis Directed by Megan Sandberg-Zakian February 10 - April 2 Our first Power Play of the season is inspired by the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, when Tulsa’s Greenwood District was almost destroyed over just 24 hours.
Angels in America, Part One: Millennium Approaches By Tony Kushner Directed by János Szász March 24 - April 23 Thirty years after its Broadway premiere, this landmark of American theater still speaks to our nation’s views on sexuality, religion and politics.	Exclusion By Kenneth Lin May 5 - June 25 The second Power Play of the season is a hilarious peek into the world of filmmaking and Hollywood. The workplace politics will immediately strike a chord.
