The Outsiders

The Outsiders, a new musical based on S.E. Hinton's novel and Francis Ford Coppola's film, makes its Costa Mesa debut. This stage adaptation brings the coming-of-age story of Ponyboy Curtis and the Greasers to life, exploring themes of class, loyalty, and finding your place. The show features a contemporary score and a cast that aims to capture the raw energy of the original material. Catch The Outsiders on Friday, October 23, 2026, at Segerstrom Center for the Arts – Segerstrom Hall. This is a touring Broadway production, so expect a full theatrical presentation in a larger hall setting. It should appeal to those who appreciate dramatic musicals and adaptations of classic American stories.
