Season 3
Magic. Music. Metamorphosis.
Austin Rainbow Theatre’s Season 3: Metamorphosis is a celebration of queer transformation through story, music, and imagination. With Sagittarius Ponderosa, we bring magical realism to the stage through innovative staging that blurs the lines between myth and reality. Then, for the first time in our history, we take on a full-scale musical with A New Brain—a whimsical, life-affirming journey of creativity, resilience, and rebirth. Together, these productions illuminate the many ways queer stories reshape the world with magic, music, and possibility.

SAGITTARIUS PONDEROSA
October 17 - November 1, 2025
A lyrical exploration of identity, transformation, and the deep-rooted truths that lie beneath the surface—of people, families, and forests alike. The air itself seems to shift with the scenes unfolding, carrying traces of memory, mystery, and change as Archer’s world takes shape before you.
A NEW BRAIN
March 27 - April 11, 2026
By the Tony Award-winning creators of Falsettos, A New Brain is a life-affirming musical about creativity, mortality, and the messy, beautiful transformation that happens when you’re forced to face yourself. Composer Gordon Schwinn is stuck—creatively and emotionally.
