“Full Circle: Bridging Generations Through Theater”

Broadway Utica is thrilled to announce Full Circle for the 2025–2026 season is back again for the 2nd year and proudly sponsored in part by Excellus BlueCross BlueShield.

This unique initiative brings together high school students and senior citizens for an uplifting, intergenerational experience centered around the power of live theater. Participants enjoy reserved seating, thoughtful conversation, and the chance to connect with students and fellow community members through the arts — all at no charge to them. Light refreshments will also be served at each performance to make the experience even more enjoyable.

This year’s Full Circle program includes:

  • The Sound of Music – Saturday, September 6, 2025 at 2:00 PM
  • Kinky Boots – Thursday, May 7, 2026 at 7:30 PM

For high school students, Full Circle is a chance to engage in a cultural activity that broadens their perspective while learning valuable life lessons from their senior companions. Senior citizens, in turn, will have the opportunity to reconnect with the community, share their rich life experiences, and enjoy a day out with great company.

 “If people knew how much they could gain—not just from the incredible performances but from the opportunity to connect with the next generation—they’d be lining up to participate,” she says. “It’s a rare and beautiful opportunity to connect across generations—and it stays with you long after the curtain falls. It’s truly magical.” - Dawn Leguerre
