When women like you come together, great things happen!

Your leading role awaits — no auditions necessary! With a Leading Ladies membership, you get a backstage pass to exclusive and exciting "girls' night out" events, where you get an insiders' look into what it takes to bring world-class theatre to life; meet the incredible professionals who create these experiences; and sponsor the mainstage production Destiny of Desire by Karen Zacarías. Plus, you'll be the first to see the show at "The Big Event" with your girlfriends — before it opens to the public! Want to learn more? Take a look at our 2019-20 Leading Ladies brochure.
