History:
California Musical Theatre introduced the Broadway Series in 1989 as a wintertime companion to Music Circus. Renamed Broadway Sacramento in 2007, the indoor series, presented at the Sacramento Community Center Theater, offers touring productions of newer works, many still playing on Broadway, as well as major revivals of established musicals.
