Orchestra & Accompanists
Our community is fortunate to be home to some of Iowa's best musicians. City Circle produces four musicals annually, each with a live orchestra. Our 2023-2024 season includes:
Mary Poppins
Music and lyrics by the Sherman Brothers with additional music by George Stiles and Anthony Drewes, book by Julian Fellowes
Performances: December 8–10 & 15–17, 2023

Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, book by James Levine

In addition to performance musicians, City Circle relies on some extraordinary accompanists to make it all possible. Accompanists remain with a production from first rehearsal to opening night, and are one of the most valued members of our production team. If you are a skilled pianist with an interest in this intensive and rewarding process, we'd love to talk with you!
