Tickets: $20
Tucson theater audiences will experience something entirely new: a first-of-its-kind showcase where multiple local theater companies share one stage. The inaugural Sonoran Theater Showcase invites audiences to “sample” scenes from past productions and upcoming seasons, all in a single afternoon, while supporting the next generation of theater artists.
The event will be in Pima Community College’s Proscenium Theatre and brings together a wide range of Tucson’s most dynamic theater organizations for a fast-paced, curated program of short performances and presentations. Part retrospective and part preview, the showcase offers audiences a rare opportunity to experience the breadth of Tucson’s theater scene in one place, meet the artists behind the work, and get an early look at what’s ahead for the 2026-2027 season.
The afternoon will feature a curated selection of performances and presentations from an unprecedented roster of local organizations, including:
This event is more than just a performance; it’s a mission. Tickets are $20, and 100% of the proceeds and additional donations will go directly toward scholarship funds for Tucson theater students. These funds will support the next generation of actors, directors and technicians as they pursue their education in the dramatic arts.
Following the showcase, the celebration continues as the theater transforms into a community gathering space. Guests are invited to stay and connect with artists. The post-show festivities will include:
“The Sonoran Theater Showcase is a rare moment where we set aside our individual productions to stand together as one creative force,” says Chris Will, head of Theater and Dance at Pima Community College. “It’s about honoring the work we’ve done and ensuring the future of Tucson theater remains bright by supporting our students.”
