The Light Was Born

The Ector Theatre 500 N. Texas, Odessa
Humanities

“A story of faith, courage, and the light that changed the world forever.” In a world on the edge of darkness, a young woman receives a calling beyond all understanding. Mary and Joseph — ordinary people chosen for an extraordinary purpose — must trust in the divine and step into the unknown. From the quiet streets of Nazareth to the crowded roads leading to Bethlehem, their journey is filled with wonder, danger, and the unmistakable presence of something holy. When a star blazes in the night sky and angels fill the air with song, the world is forever changed. The Light Was Born tells this sacred story through breathtaking music, operatic voices, and cinematic theatrical design — inviting audiences to experience the first Christmas as if for the very first time.

Disney’s Frozen the Broadway Musical

Disney’s Frozen the Broadway Musical
Midland Community Theatre 2000 W. Wadley, Midland

For the first time in forever, experience the musical phenomenon that has taken the world by storm! Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature film, Disney’s Frozen includes all the film’s beloved songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, along with new music written exclusively for the stage. In the beautiful mountainous kingdom of Arendelle, Princesses Anna and Elsa grow up sheltered inside their castle, isolated from the world and increasingly distant from each other. When Elsa is crowned queen, the magical powers she’s desperately tried to conceal from her sister take control, and she flees into the mountains. As a ferocious winter descends on Arendelle, Anna sets off on an epic journey to find Elsa and bring her home – with the help of hardworking ice harvester Kristoff, his loyal reindeer Sven, and a happy-go-lucky snowman named Olaf. Full of magic, humor, and a stunning musical score, Frozen is a powerful tale of sisterhood, acceptance, and finding the real meaning of true love.
