Theatre Under the Stars 2019: Mamma Mia! and Disney’s Newsies

Add a Comment by Alexis

Audiences will bathe in the warmth of a Greek island and witness a fight for what’s right this summer, when Theatre Under the Stars (“TUTS”) presents Mamma Mia! and Disney’s Newsies, running alternate evenings July 5–August 17, 2019, at Stanley Park’s glorious Malkin Bowl.

TUTS 2019

TUTS is a beloved Vancouver tradition since 1940!

Theater Under the Stars 2019

  • Where: Malkin Bowl in Stanley Park (610 Pipeline Rd, Vancouver)
  • When: July 5th to August 17th, 2019
  • Subscriptions are available by visiting tuts.ca or by calling (604) 631-2877 until May 4. Early bird single tickets go on sale May 15.

Set on a Greek island paradise where the sun always shines, box office record-breaking Mamma Mia! brims with non-stop laughs, explosive dance, and the magic of ABBA’s hit songs: ‘Dancing Queen,’ ‘Take a Chance on Me,’ ‘Super Trouper,’ ‘SOS,’ and many more.

A soaring spectacle of powerful song and high-kicking dance, Disney’s Newsies is packed with non-stop thrills and a timeless message for the whole family. At the turn of the 20th century, New York City had its papers delivered by an army of ragged orphans and runaways called ‘newsies.’ When newspaper owners raise distribution prices at the newsies’ expense, this band of misfits unites to strike against the unfair conditions. Filled with inspiring songs such as ‘King of New York,’ ‘Santa Fe,’ and ‘Carrying the Banner,’ this Disney film turned Tony Award-winning Broadway hit inspires everyone to seize the day! 

TUTS will once again offer a two-show subscription pack — allowing audiences to secure their seats to both productions for one great price. On sale now through May 4, subscriptions are $80 for adults, $50 for children and youths, and include Premium tickets to both productions, souvenir programmes, and exchange insurance for both nights.
