In a press release, WestCoast Entertainment President Justin Kobluk notes that many of this season's stops are touring around the country for the very first time.

"We're excited to announce a season that brings a lot of variety to Spokane, including the hottest new Broadway hits as well as old favorites," Kobluk says.

Among those new shows are SIX, a "remixed" retelling, a la Hamilton, of the lives of the six tragic wives of the infamous King Henry VIII, plus the stage version of Disney's beloved Frozen, which needs no introduction for most. (See above for a preview of how adorable Sven the reindeer and Olaf the snowman look transported from screen to stage.) 

As an overall theme, this next season packs in tons of girl power (SIX, Mean Girls, Frozen), numerous timeless tales (Les Mis, To Kill a Mockingbird, My Fair Lady), and homages to American music icons (Tina, Million Dollar Quartet).

While season ticket packages go on sale this Friday,  April 17, single tickets for all shows are available to the general public starting July 12. For more info, visit broadwayspokane.com.
