Desert Theatricals’ 2024/2025 Season!

The City of Rancho Mirage is thrilled to welcome back Desert Theatricals for their exciting 2024/2025 season! Audiences can look forward to Youth Theatre, the annual Christmas show, captivating Spring Cabaret performances, and professional Broadway musicals—hallmarks of Desert Theatricals’ exceptional productions!

First up, on November 23 and 24, is the Rancho Mirage Library and Observatory Foundation’s Youth Theatre’s production of “Into the Woods Jr.” at the Rancho Mirage Amphitheater. This Tony Award-winning musical features all your favorite classic Brothers Grimm fable characters — Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk), and the Witch.

Then, join us at the Rancho Mirage Library and Observatory to usher in the holidays with “MAKING SPIRITS BRIGHT” – An Evening of Christmas Swing with Dean and Marilyn, reliving the classic sounds sung by these two iconic Vegas legends, on December 14.

After the holidays, sit back and enjoy the sounds of “1963” – starring Tod Macofsky on January 11, and “The Mod Squad” with Francesca Amari, Jeff Stewart, and Wayne Abravanel on February 15. Enjoy a trip back to the best of classic music and tunes!

This year’s Christmas show, 1963, and The Mod Squad performances will be held at the Rancho Mirage Library & Observatory, located at 71-100 Highway 111, Rancho Mirage.

Although all events are free to attend, registration is required at desert-theatricals.com. Seating is limited.
