A new production of Mystic Pizza: A New Musical will launch a national tour at the Clemens Center in Elmira, New York on September 26, 2026. Based on the beloved movie classic that launched Julia Roberts ’ career, this musical depicts best friends Kat, Daisy, and Jojo’s search for love and self-identity as they face life’s many unexpected twists and turns. Packed with ‘80s and ‘90s hits, this show celebrating Mystic, Connecticut’s iconic pizza joint will tour the USA with stops to include Dallas, Detroit, and St. Paul.

Mystic Pizza is based on the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Motion Picture with Story and Characters by Amy Holden Jones . The musical is written by Sandy Rustin (The Cottage) with Arrangements and Orchestrations by Carmel Dean (The Notebook). The production had its world premiere at Ogunquit Playhouse in 2021.

With direction and choreography by Jennifer Werner (The Book of Mormon), the original film’s coming-of-age tale is brought to life live on stage as these timeless characters navigate the complexities of friendship and romance—all while slinging slices at a small-town pizza joint. Bursting with laugh-out-loud moments, heartfelt storytelling, and hit songs including “Hit Me With Your Best Shot,” “Hold On,” and “Manic Monday,” Mystic Pizza is a joyful celebration of chasing dreams, lifelong bonds, and finding your place in the world.

In addition to Jennifer Werner ’s direction and choreography, designs are by Nate Bertone (Scenery), Dalton Hamilton (Lighting), Jen Caprio (Costumes), and Matt Kraus (Sound). Andrew Graham is the Music Supervisor and Casting is by ARC. Daniel Sher is the Executive Producer. Casting will be announced soon.
