“Vanities: The Musical” chronicles the life-affirming journey of three vivacious Texas women, from cheerleaders to sorority sisters to housewives to liberated women and beyond.
This musical captures a snapshot-sharp portrait of the lives, loves, disappointments and dreams of these young women growing up during the turbulent 60s and 70s and reconnecting in the late 1980s. With a tunefully evocative score by David Kirshenbaum (“Summer of ‘42”) and Jack Heifner’s hilarious adaptation of his long-running off-Broadway smash, “Vanities: The Musical” is a poignant look at three best friends who discover that, through thirty years of rapidly changing times, the one thing they can rely on is each other.
“Vanities: The Musical” is directed by Peter J. Hill, musically directed by Jay Melberg and choreographed by Noel Irick. The show stars Tina Khalil, Katie Lambert and Autumn Morgan. “Vanities: The Musical” is presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals. Rated PG-13 for language.

Fountain Hills Theater presents three regularly scheduled seasons of productions in their two theaters. The Theater’s year-round offering includes Mainstage, Mainstage Too! and Youth productions. Special events, community outreach, and educational arts programming for the youth is also offered.
The Mainstage (often called the “big”) theater seats 130 and is devoted to medium and large-scale popular musicals and plays including the best of Broadway and Off-Broadway. No seat is more than 35 feet from the stage.
The Youth/Mainstage Too! (also called the “little” theater) is a smaller, more intimate 90-seat, thrust-style auditorium that offers thought-provoking, inspiring and sometimes challenging productions including Broadway musicals, original plays, musicals and artworks. Most of the youth productions are performed in the more intimate, smaller theater.
Both stages often run productions concurrently. Special events are offered throughout the season on both stages as well as in community centers. The Theater has been in operation as a professionally directed community theater for over 30 years.
The Mission of Fountain Hills Theater is “to engage, inspire and entertain diverse audiences, train and support our youth, and celebrate the essential power of the performing arts.”
Fountain Hills Theater is a 501(c)(3) organization. All gifts are tax-deductible. The Theater is fully funded by ticket sales and donations. Volunteer opportunities are available.
