Boston's Huntington Theatre has revealed the seven shows that will make up its 2025-2026 season. The upcoming season will include Tony winner Jez Butterworth鈥檚 The Hills of California, Edinburgh Fringe Festival hit Sardines (a comedy about death) written and performed by Chris Grace of TV鈥檚 Superstore, Tony-winning musical Fun Home, Joshua Harmon鈥檚 We Had a World, Oedipus el Rey by Luis Alfaro, and Eureka Day by Jonathan Spector.
The Hills of Califonia, a co-production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre, will run September 11-October 12, with Huntington Artistic Director Loretta Greco directing. Directed by Eric Michaud, Sardines will perform September 30-November 16. Fun Home will close out the year November 14-December 14, with Logan Ellis at the helm. We Had a World, currently making its world premiere Off-Broadway via Manhattan Theatre Club through May 11, will perform February 12-March 15, 2026. Oedipus el Rey is set for May 7-June 7, 2026 with Greco directing, and Eureka Day will complete the season May 29-June 28, 2026 with Margot Bordelon at the helm.
Additionally, as part of seven-play season subscriptions, the company will also include access to the world premiere of Mfoniso Udofia鈥檚 The Ceremony, which will be produced by Chuang Stage in association with Boston University and Boston Playwrights鈥� Theatre in fall of 2025. This piece, which will run September 10-October 5, was commissioned by The Huntington and offers a vibrant, heartwarming celebration of love that weds Nigerian and Nepali cultures. Lyndsay Allyn Cox will direct.
Performances in this new season will begin in September with shows taking place at the Huntington Theatre and The Huntington鈥檚 Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA, with the special add-on presentation of The Ceremony taking place at Boston University鈥檚 Joan & Edgar Booth Theatre in Brookline. The Huntington reopened the historic Huntington Theatre in fall of 2022 after its transformational renovation, and is currently in phase two of the project; the continued renovation will not impact audiences during the season.
鈥淓very play this season is impassioned, magnetic, cathartic, surprising,鈥� says Artistic Director Loretta Greco. 鈥淲hen we chose these titles for this coming season, we were fascinated by the themes of legacy and family: where we come from, what we leave behind, and what truly matters most. These seven plays will crack us open with revealing humor and transcendent emotion.鈥�
