LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, June 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- BroadStage has announced its 2025–26 Season, presenting a wide-ranging lineup of world-class performances in opera, jazz, theater, classical music, contemporary music, comedy, and dance. The season offers a bold artistic vision that brings together legacy and innovation, honoring tradition while inviting new voices to the stage.

A major highlight of the season is the launch of the Santa Monica International Jazz Festival, co-produced by BroadStage and SM Festivals LLC in collaboration with Artistic Director Stanley Clarke and Executive Producer Martin Fleischmann. The festival will take place from May 1 to May 9, 2026, and will celebrate the 100th anniversaries of Route 66, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane. The artist lineup and ticketing information will be released this fall.

In January, acclaimed actor Patrick Page returns to BroadStage with “All the Devils Are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain.” This twelve-performance engagement runs January 15th through 25th and offers a powerful solo exploration of Shakespeare’s most infamous characters.

“This season at BroadStage is a celebration of bold new voices and long standing artistic courage, side by side,” said Rob Bailis, Artistic and Executive Director, BroadStage. “It is truly intergenerational, built for a time when we must stand together, stand for what we believe - younger and older, alike and different - we must find the mutualities that bring us into community.”

“This season will offer a vibrant platform for collaboration, provocation, conversation, resilience, and comic relief - it's built to fortify all of us for the days ahead,” continues Bailis. “I am particularly excited by the emerging talent we are introducing this year - young artists for whom the urgency of the message in the moment is glowing with hope for the future. As always, we remain a home for the very finest and most beloved internationally renowned artists, and a gathering place that uplifts and respects the rich diversity of Southern California. We encourage Angelenos to join us—engage, reflect, resist, and enjoy.”
