The Paramount Theatre

This winter, the Paramount Theatre in Cedar Rapids is brimming with festive performances and Broadway flair. Audiences can look forward to the Orchestra Iowa Pops Holiday Spectacular (Dec 20–21), a magical Nutcracker ballet (Dec 6) accompanied by Orchestra Iowa, and a stirring holiday concert by Jim Brickman (Dec 9). On the Broadway side, the 2025-26 series brings Hadestown (Dec 17), followed in early 2026 by Mrs. Doubtfire (Feb 3) and Chicago (Mar 2).
