OFC Creations Theatre has announced its 2025-2026 Broadway in Brighton Series, comprised of six professional musical productions under the direction of OFC’s Executive Director Eric Vaughn Johnson. The series feature performers from New York City, Los Angeles, and across the country, continuing OFC’s inclusion of celebrities in featured roles across the season.
This season’s focus is centered around the importance of family – the family you are born into and your chosen family found along life’s journey. The series includes:
•Finding Neverland, the first Rochester-produced production and one of the first regional theatres in the country to perform
•Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas: The Musical, another regional premiere where again, OFC is one of the first to produce it in the country
•Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical, a first Rochester-produced production, starring Garrett Clayton as The Grinch (from Teen Beach Movie, The Fosters, and Hairspray LIVE!)
•Hello, Dolly!, a golden age hit musical
•The Bodyguard: The Musical, the breathtaking romantic thriller based on the popular Whitney Houston film
•Over the Rainbow: The Golden Girls Musical, where everyone’s favorite ladies are back in a world premiere.
Additionally, there is a special series add-on: Home For The Holidays with The Calamari Sisters.
Families come in all shapes and sizes, and OFC strives to reflect this beauty through their shows onstage and off.
“We are committed to bringing beloved shows to Rochester that are not often produced, unique musicals that vary in origin and genre, and stories you know you’ll love but may not have known existed,” shares Johnson about the new season. “OFC works directly with authors, estates, and special professional licensing agreements to secure a series we’re proud to make part of our legacy.”
OFC Creations celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, a fixture of the Rochester performing arts scene since 2005. After opening the 260-seat OFC Creations Theatre Center in 2020, OFC has continued to expand with the largest educational theater program for young actors in New York State, opening an immersive theatrical restaurant and cabaret performance venue in 2022. The 2025-2026 season marks the third year of the Broadway in Brighton Series, a professional regional theater season guaranteeing theatrical excellence for audiences.
