Broadway musical The Outsiders, adapted from S.E. Hinton's novel and Francis Ford Coppola's film, at Civic Theatre.
The Outsiders opens at the Civic Theatre on Tuesday, November 3, and runs through Sunday, November 8. It's part of Broadway San Diego's 49th season, and it's a musical adaptation of S.E. Hinton's novel and Francis Ford Coppola's film. The show won four Tony Awards in 2024, including Best Musical.
Set in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1967, it follows Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade, and their Greaser family of 'outsiders' as they battle their affluent rivals, the Socs. The book was written by Adam Rapp and Justin Levine, with music and lyrics by Jamestown Revival—the duo of Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance. Choreography comes from Rick Kuperman and Jeff Kuperman, and the production was directed by Tony Award winner Danya Taymor.

Saturday has a 2 PM matinee and an 8 PM evening show, and Sunday runs at 1 PM and 6:30 PM. Doors open one hour before each performance, so you've got time to get settled before the curtain goes up. The Civic Theatre is cashless, so leave the cash at home and bring a card.
