The Baby-sitters Club: A New Musical is at Kirk Douglas Theatre, Culver City, on May 6, 2027.
Ann M. Martin's Baby-sitters Club books get their first full stage musical in spring 2027, and Los Angeles gets the world premiere. Center Theatre Group is staging The Baby-sitters Club: A New Musical at the Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City, with previews beginning May 6, 2027. It is an easy pick for anyone building a list of upcoming events in Los Angeles that works for a whole family, and for the grown-up readers who still own the paperbacks.
When: Previews begin May 6, 2027 (start time not yet published) Where: Kirk Douglas Theatre, Culver City Tickets: Through Center Theatre Group
What to expect
The show has a book by Kate Wetherhead and music and lyrics by Mark Sonnenblick. Press coverage describes it as set twelve years after the club disbanded, so it speaks to readers who grew up with Kristy, Claudia, Stacey and the rest, not only to kids discovering the series now. A world premiere also means the show is still being shaped, which is a draw in itself: you see a new musical before it goes anywhere else.
Reports put the official opening on May 16, 2027, and describe a run of about four weeks. Check the Center Theatre Group page for the confirmed closing date, since this post does not state one.
Planning your night
Center Theatre Group has not published the performance schedule or ticket prices in the information we could confirm, so there is no price listed here. The theater's page is the place to look for set times and on-sale dates as they are announced. Previews usually give an early look at a production, so book with that in mind.
The Kirk Douglas Theatre sits on Washington Boulevard in downtown Culver City, a walkable stretch with plenty of places to eat before a show. Parking details should be confirmed with the venue closer to the date. The Metro E Line stops in Culver City, which is another option if you would rather skip the car.
Why it's worth marking now
Spring is a long way off, but premieres of well-loved books tend to sell well. If you are putting together things happening in Los Angeles for May, add this one now and watch the official page for dates.
