Beautiful

The Carole King Musical

Our second jukebox musical of the summer, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical tells the story of Carole King’s life and career, using songs she wrote. Before she was hit-maker Carole King — she was Carole Klein, a young songwriter from Brooklyn with a unique voice. Eventually she meets a handsome young lyricist named Gerry Goffin and the two partner in romance and songwriting. The duo make a name for themselves in the music business, knocking out hit after hit, get married and have a child. However, while their careers are on the rise, Carole’s personal life falls apart and she must change her life and find her own voice. From the chart-topping hits she wrote for the biggest acts in music to her own life-changing, trailblazing success with Tapestry, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical takes you back to where it all began.

Killer Queen

Jun 19, 2024 - ongoing

Killer Queen will rock San Diego once again!  
  
Formed back in June 1993, their first public shows were at London University, following in the footsteps of the real Queen, who played their first shows there 21 years earlier. 
  
By 1995, Killer Queen's UK popularity had grown to such an extent they secured a residency in London's Strand Theatre attracting nationwide BBC coverage - the first tribute to have a show in the West End. Since then, the band's reputation has continued to grow, both in the UK and abroad. 
   
Killer Queen: A Tribute to Queen is proudly presented by San Diego Theatres at Balboa Theatre on Saturday, March 29, 2025. Tickets are available via San Diego Theatres and Ticketmaster.

3 Summers of Lincoln

Change the conversation. Change the world.


This gripping new musical tells the inspirational story of one of the most important friendships in our nation’s history, and a divided country coming together.


Summer, 1862. President Abraham Lincoln must find a way to end the Civil War. Enter powerful abolitionist Frederick Douglass. If he can meet Lincoln face to face, he can help the president cement a vision of the future that ends slavery along with the war — all while preserving the Union. Just three meetings took place between the two men — pivotal conversations between two brilliant leaders that shaped the course of history.
