The Huntington announces 2025-2026 season
Advertisement Nearly three dozen arts organizations are expected to be involved in stagings of Udofia's cycle by the time it is done. 'The Ceremony' will be part of the package offered to full-season subscribers to The Huntington. That season, announced Thursday afternoon, will include Jez Butterworth's 'The Hills of California,' Chris Grace's 'Sardines (a comedy about death),' the wrenching musical 'Fun Home,' Luis Alfaro's 'Oedipus el Rey,' Joshua Harmon's 'We Had a World,' and Jonathan Spector's 'Eureka Day.' In a telephone interview, Huntington artistic director Loretta Greco said that in mapping out the season, she sought 'great stories that are going to speak to us today' while also being mindful that 'there are too many humor-free things happening today. We have to be able to laugh.' Advertisement Greco will direct 'The Hills of California,' which ran on Broadway last fall. It's about the fraught homecoming of four adult sisters in the mid-1970s who return to the seaside house where they grew up – and where their mother is dying. The mother had tried to prepare them for careers as singers, akin to the Andrews Sisters. The play will be presented in association with Berkeley Repertory Theatre from Sept. 11-Oct. 12. From Sept. 30-Nov. 9, The Huntington will present 'Sardines (a comedy about death).' Written and performed by Chris Grace, and directed by Eric Michaud, 'Sardines' is a seriocomic solo play about Grace's attempt to process a staggering amount of loss in a short time period: the deaths of Grace's partner, his parents, and two of his siblings. 'He performs it with the deft radar of a comedian,' Greco said. Next up, from Nov. 14-Dec. 14, is seven years ago. 'Fun Home,' which is based on Alison Bechdel's graphic novel, focuses on a middle-aged gay cartoonist looking back at her complicated relationship with her closeted father. As with 'The Hills of California,' the musical offers a reminder, Greco said, that 'your parents are a piece of who you are.' With music by Jeanine Tesori and a book and lyrics by Lisa Kron, 'Fun Home' will be directed by Logan Ellis. From Feb. 12-March 15, 2026, The Huntington will present 'We Had a World,' by Advertisement Greco will be back in the director role for Luis Alfaro's 'Oedipus el Rey,' a reimagining of the classic drama by Sophocles that is set in present-day Los Angeles. It will run May 7-June 7, 2026. Rounding out the year will be 'Eureka Day,' Jonathan Spector's comedy about parents at a progressive private school whose ideals are tested when they are confronted with a case of the mumps. Slated for May 28-June 28, 2026, 'Eureka Day' will be directed by Margo Bordelon, who helmed the Huntington production of Don Aucoin can be reached at
