What To Expect From The Arizona Theatre Company This Season

In May 2019, Arizona Theatre Company named Sean Daniels its artistic director.

Daniels had been successful in other parts of the country, and it made sense for the Valley native to lead the company that first got him interested in the stage.

But the end of his first season in the spring of 2020 saw the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, and its continued dominance of our daily lives led his second season to be conducted remotely — not exactly the traditional theatre experience.

Now, as Arizona Theatre Company begins its 2021-22 season, expectations are that seats will be occupied and attendees will be present to laugh, cry and applaud.

The Show spoke with Daniels to learn about what’s happening with the company, as the season begins next week in Tucson.
