The wickedly funny musical Damn Yankees, sponsored by the Dream Alliance Foundation, opens Feb. 13 at Theatre Arlington. This devilishly delightful production features DFW favorite David Coffee in the role of Mr. Applegate, the mysterious stranger who offers Joe Boyd the chance to help the Washington Senators win the pennant and beat those “damn yankees!”

“Some of you may remember that Damn Yankees was on our schedule in 2020, and we were one week away from opening when the pandemic shut us down,” says executive producer and director Steven D. Morris. “I would like to acknowledge the amazing cast and creative team of the 2020 version that was only seen by me.”

Eagle eye fans will recognize a handful of names from that 2020 production, as well as some new faces on the stage.

Theatre Arlington is so proud of what the cast and creative team are bringing up to bat in this hellaciously entertaining, wickedly clever, diabolically

darling production of Damn Yankees, featuring toe-tapping favorites such as Whatever Lola Wants (Lola Gets) and other tunes with plenty of heart.

Group ticket rates for the show are available for parties of 10 or more.

Damn Yankees will open Friday, Feb. 13 and will close Sunday, March 8 with the following schedule: 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and 2 p.m. Sundays.

Tickets are $43-$48.
