Spacy Magic School Bus Musical Lands at the Bama Theatre Next Sunday
Ms. Frizzle is landing the Magic School Bus on stage at the Bama Theatre next weekend for a family show from the stars.
The Arts and Humanities Council of Tuscaloosa will present TheaterWorksUSA’s musical “The Magic School Bus — Lost in the Solar System” on Sunday, November 1 at 4 p.m. in the Historic Bama Theatre.
It is part of the TuscArts OnStage 2026-27 season.

The show is adapted from the Scholastic book series. When Ms. Frizzle’s class gets lost on the way to the planetarium, she uses the magic of the bus to turn the mistake into an interplanetary field trip.
The production has music and lyrics by Matthew Lee Robinson and a book by Marshall Pailet, with original direction and choreography by Connor Gallagher, who received the Jerry Zaks Directing Fellowship in 2018. Jason Sherwood designed the sets and Sarah Cubbage the costumes.
Tickets run $22 to $37 and are available at tuscarts.org or by phone at 205-758-5195, extension 1.
The Bama Theatre box office is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and can be reached at boxoffice@tuscarts.org.
The Historic Bama Theatre is at 600 Greensboro Avenue in downtown Tuscaloosa.
