Huntington Theatre Unveils 2026–27 Season Led by Pasek, Taub, and Harmon’s Unorthodox

The premiere pairs a high-profile creative team with Deborah Feldman’s memoir as source material.

Overview

  • The Huntington announced its 2026–27 lineup featuring the world premiere of Unorthodox at the Huntington Theatre, scheduled for April 29–May 30, 2027 and directed by Jordan Fein.
  • The musical draws directly from Deborah Feldman’s book rather than the 2020 Netflix series, according to artistic director Loretta Greco.
  • Benj Pasek and Shaina Taub provide the music and lyrics while Joshua Harmon writes the book in their first collaboration.
  • The story is set in Brooklyn’s Hasidic Satmar community and follows a teen and her grandmother in parallel journeys about faith and self-determination.
  • Season subscriptions are on sale now, single tickets will follow in late spring or early summer 2026, and the slate also includes Purpose, To Kill a Mockingbird, Adia & Clora Snatch Joy, Meet the Cartozians, a Taylor Mac and Matt Ray concert event, and Teatro La Plaza’s Hamlet.
