Readers are invited inside the extraordinary story of a theater company that began in 1951 under a canvas tent in downtown Sacramento—and grew into one of the nation’s longest-running professional musical theater institutions.
Filled with rare photographs, original artwork, archival discoveries, and firsthand stories, the book brings the Music Circus legacy vividly to life. You’ll meet the artists and leaders who built the company, discover how productions are created in the round, and explore how musical theater has evolved far beyond Broadway while remaining deeply connected to it.
The book also takes readers behind the curtain today, with a deep dive into ten signature musicals and the artistry that transforms the Music Circus stage each summer.
Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, Broadway Sacramento: 75 Years of Theater Magic is a celebration of the performances, the people, and the community that have kept the magic of live theater alive for generations.
