Arkansas Rep Announces 2018-19 Season

The season will include classic plays, comedies, and musicals.

These NY-based artists specialize in adding circus to musical theatre, but their new ‘Godspell’ at Arkansas Rep is all circus, all the time.

The season will be the company’s first under the new producing artistic director, John Miller-Stephany.

Miller-Stephany will succeed Bob Hupp as the artistic leader of the Little Rock theatre.

Martin Miller and Robert Ford have made their small company a theatrical force in Northwest Arkansas, but it hasn’t happened in a vacuum.

Hupp will leave his post as the second executive to lead the Rep for a new position at the New York theatre.

Nearing its 40th year, the $4 million LORT theatre programs big shows for audiences as varied as the state, and it’s set to expand this spring.

The Little Rock-based theatre’s 2015–16 season will include classic and contemporary musicals, plus a world premiere directed by Jason Alexander.

The composer/lyricist discusses her new show with Duncan Sheik, “Because of Winn-Dixie,” and why she loves collaboration.
