Tootsie

November 6–22

Fridays at 8pm · Saturdays & Sundays at 2pm
Special Saturday evening performance November 21st at 8pm


He couldn't get a job as a man — so he became the woman of the year. Broadway's smash-hit musical comedy is coming to Cocoa Beach.

Michael Dorsey is a talented actor with one serious problem: he's nearly impossible to work with. Desperate and broke, he makes a bold decision — disguise himself as a woman and audition for a soap opera. It works too well. "Dorothy Michaels" becomes a sensation, a feminist icon, and the most sought-after actress in the city... while Michael falls head over heels for his co-star, Sandy. The more successful his alter ego becomes, the more impossible it is to tell the truth.

Based on the beloved 1982 film and fresh off a smash Broadway run, Tootsie is a high-energy, big-hearted comedy about identity, integrity, and what happens when your lies take on a life of their own. Full of show-stopping numbers and non-stop laughs, it's an ideal outing for couples, friends, and anyone who's ever had to reinvent themselves to get ahead.

Content Advisory: Adult themes, comedic cross‑dressing, mild language, romantic situations. Recommended for teens and adults.

Picnic

January 8–24

Fridays at 8pm · Saturdays & Sundays at 2pm
Special Saturday evening performance January 23rd at 8pm

One magnetic stranger. One hot Kansas afternoon. A quiet town that will never be the same.

It's Labor Day weekend in a small Kansas town, and Hal Carter — handsome, restless, and full of big dreams — blows in like a summer storm. His arrival sets off a chain reaction among the women of the neighborhood: the beautiful Madge, who's expected to marry the safe, reliable boy next door; her bookish sister Millie who longs for more; and the women who watch from their porches and remember what it felt like to want something different.

William Inge's Pulitzer Prize-winning drama is a quietly devastating portrait of desire, regret, and the courage it takes to reach for a life that truly fits you. Passionate, achingly human, and visually stunning on stage, Picnic is the kind of play that stays with you long after the curtain falls — perfect for theatergoers who love drama with real emotional depth.

Content Advisory: Mature themes including desire, relationships, and emotional conflict. Recommended for teens and adults.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

February 26 – March 14

Fridays at 8pm · Saturdays & Sundays at 2pm
Special Saturday evening performance March 13 at 8pm

Comedy tonight! This Tony Award-winning musical is non-stop slapstick, mistaken identities, and ancient Roman chaos — and it never gets old.

Pseudolus is a slave with one burning ambition: his freedom. His plan? Help his young master Hero win the heart of the gorgeous courtesan next door — if only the girl's owner, her other suitors, the boy's overbearing parents, and the sheer force of chaos itself would cooperate. What ensues is a glorious avalanche of puns, pratfalls, disguises, and the kind of perfectly timed lunacy that can only exist on a stage.
With music and lyrics by the legendary Stephen Sondheim and a book built on the farcical traditions of ancient Roman comedy, Forum is one of the most purely fun musicals ever written. There's no message, no moral — just two hours of unrelenting comic brilliance. Bring the family, bring your friends, and prepare to laugh until it hurts.

Content Advisory: Classic farce with innuendo, slapstick humor, and suggestive situations. Generally suitable for teens and adults.

Agatha Christie's Spider's Web

APRIL 23 - MAY 9

Fridays at 8pm · Saturdays & Sundays at 2pm

Special Saturday Evening Performance
May 8th at 8pm


A charming hostess, a dead body in the drawing room, and a race against the clock — Christie's wittiest thriller is pure beachside escapism.


Clarissa Hailsham-Brown has always dreamed of being involved in a real-life mystery — and the universe has a wicked sense of humor. When a body turns up in her drawing room just before her diplomat husband arrives home for an important dinner party, she does what any resourceful woman would do: she recruits her houseguests to help hide it. What follows is a deliciously twisty, laugh-out-loud romp through lies, disguises, suspects, and increasingly bad decisions — all wrapped in the sophisticated wit that made Agatha Christie a legend.

This is Christie at her most playful — part parlor mystery, part farce — and the perfect way to kick off our new season. Whether you're a die-hard whodunit fan or just looking for a night of clever entertainment, Spider's Web will keep you guessing (and giggling) right up to the final reveal.

Sci-Fi Fractured (A Bryan Bergeron World Premiere)

June 11–27

Fridays at 8pm · Saturdays & Sundays at 2pm
Special Saturday evening performance June 26th at 8pm

Aliens. Robots. Heroes in tinfoil hats. Surfside Playhouse's wildly original summer spectacular skewers every sci-fi cliché you've ever loved.

Somewhere in the vast cosmos of science fiction — between the ominous hum of a flying saucer and the beep-boop of a malfunctioning robot — there's a story waiting to be told. What story? That depends on who shows up to tell it.

Sci-Fi Fractured is a brand-new original production conceived and written by Bryan Bergeron, built from the ground up on the greatest tropes, archetypes, and glorious absurdities of the sci-fi genre. There may or may not be little green men, robots with questionable programming, doomsday devices with suspicious instruction manuals, and heroes who are almost certainly in over their heads. Think of it as Blazing Saddles meets Spaceballs — but set in a galaxy that didn't get the memo about taking itself seriously.

What makes this show truly unique: it’s what we consider the MOST community-oriented show around: the characters, storylines, and final shape of the production are crafted around the talented performers who audition. It's part theater, part live experiment — packed with singing, dancing, and the kind of anarchic comic energy that Mel Brooks (& Bryan Bergeron) built a career on. Every performance will be unforgettable.

This is the show you'll be talking about all summer. Don't miss it.

Content Advisory: Family‑friendly sci‑fi parody with mild comedic chaos. Suitable for most audiences.
