Syracuse Stage Shares Plans for 2022/23 Season
Two world premieres. Musicals. A mystery. Check out these and more during Syracuse Stage’s 2022/23 season.
It will present six shows: How to Dance in Ohio (Sept. 21- Oct. 9); Disney’s The Little Mermaid (Nov. 25 – Jan. 8); Clean/Espejos (Feb. 15 – March 5); Our Town (March 29 – April 16); Tender Rain (May 3 – 21); and Clue (June 7 – 25). Syracuse Stage is also bringing back several educational programs, including the Bank of America Children’s Tour and Theatre for the Very Young.
“Our new season centers great stories, many told on our stage for the first time, brought to life by amazing actors, directors and designers,” said Artistic Director Robert Hupp in a press release. “This is what you expect when you come to Syracuse Stage. Enriching activities that give you deeper understanding of the work, created in an environment that makes for a special and fun night out, makes Syracuse Stage the kind of experience you can’t get anywhere else in Central New York.”

Baltimore Woods Expands
Visitors to Baltimore Woods Nature Center will soon have more land to explore.
It recently closed on a 90-acre addition to its nature preserve, bringing its total number of acres to 272. The nature center said that it plans to reveal the first new hiking trail in June.
“One of the most amazing things about this acquisition process has been getting to partner with so many organizations and individuals who believed in this project,” said Whitney Lash-Marshall, executive director of Baltimore Woods Nature Center, in a press release. “We have heard stories from people who have been a part of Baltimore Woods since it began and have shared the preserve with multiple generations of family members and friends. As we integrate this new land into the current preserve, we hope that long into the future it will continue to serve as a special place for everyone to experience the many benefits of time spent out in nature.”
