Theatre Under the Stars is a not-to-be-missed summer event. Each year, the incredible stage at Stanley Park’s Malkin Bowl comes to life with toe-tapping musical delights. For 2026, Theatre Under the Stars (TUTS) is presenting the following two incredible shows:
Get ready for roaring laughter, memorable moments, and plenty of uplifting music at “Sister Act,” based on the 1992 movie of the same name starring Whoopi Goldberg. When an aspiring disco diva accidentally stumbles upon a gangster shooting, she is placed into witness protection in the last place anyone would look for her – a nearby convent! Deloris begins her new life as Sister Mary Clarence and is tasked with overhauling the abysmal choir, which she manages with gumption, leading them to soar to new heights. This show is best for audiences ages 12+ due to mature language, gunshot sounds, some adult themes, and strobe lighting.
Make Theatre Under the Stars part of your world this summer with the smash hit Disney’s Little Mermaid! Ariel dreams of life above the sea, but is discouraged by her cautious father from pursuing her curiosity. When she falls in love with Prince Eric, following a sea wreck, Ariel makes a disastrous deal with Ursula, the sea witch, to trade her mesmerizing voice for legs so she can win over Prince Eric. With the help and support of her friends Flounder, Sebastien, and Scuttle, Ariel learns the true meaning of love and must come to terms with the two parts of her heart – life under the sea, and life on land with Prince Eric.
