Pure Glitter by Douglas Lyons is a vibrant, heartfelt comedy celebrating the messy, glittering bonds of chosen family. At Stan and Tony’s 10th anniversary surprise party, old friends and new flames collide in a whirlwind of revelations, shade, and musical theater debates. As secrets unravel—breakups, betrayals, and hidden truths—the group confronts love, loss, and the courage to be honest. With sharp wit, iconic diva references, and a dance-filled finale, this play sparkles with humor and heart, reminding us that even when life shatters, friendship is the glue that holds us together. From the author of the recent hit Chicken & Biscuits.

The beloved annual fundraiser, Broadway Our Way, returns in 2026 with a whimsical new theme that turns “happily ever after” delightfully upside down. Welcome to Broadway Our Way: Fractured Fairy Tales—a deliciously twisted musical adventure where Broadway show tunes meet fairy tales gone rogue.

Fresh off their acclaimed collaboration IMAGINE, Uptown Players and Bruce Wood Dance reunite for TOGETHER — a bold new cabaret that blends live vocals, contemporary dance, and theatrical storytelling into a powerful celebration of Pride.

Through movement and music, TOGETHER traces the LGBTQ+ community’s journey from isolation to connection, transforming moments of vulnerability into pure joy. Iconic anthems such as Celine Dion’s “All By Myself” and Pat Benatar’s “We Belong” underscore the emotional heartbeat of the evening — a reminder that while one voice can inspire, it’s the harmony of many that changes the world.

The performance showcases the evocative choreography of Bruce Wood and Joy Bollinger, alongside dynamic new creations by Bruce Wood Dance company artists Weaver Rhodes, Elliott Trahan, Cole Vernon, and Megan Storey. Their expressive movement intertwines seamlessly with powerhouse vocals by Uptown Players performers Peter DiCesare, Seth Paden, Lee Walter, Brett Warner, and Kylie Stewart, under the musical direction of Adam C. Wright and stage direction by Clayton Younkin.

Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, environmental collapse, corporate mismanagement, privatization of natural resources, bureaucracy, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny.
