Broadway at the Bass presents “The Notebook: The Musical,” a stage adaptation of the beloved novel that inspired the iconic film.

Entertainment Weekly has praised the musical for its “butterfly-inducing highs and beautiful songs,” describing it as “a deeply moving portrait of the enduring power of love.” Tickets are available for purchase at Bass Performance Hall (525 Commerce St, Fort Worth, 817-212-4280), starting at $50 through BassHall.com.
Wednesday – Tuesday, June 24-30, 2026
The classic rock band Rush will be performing four concerts at Dickies Arena (1911 Montgomery St, Fort Worth, 817-402-9000) on June 24, 26, 28, and 30. Fans of the Canadian trio are eagerly anticipating the shows, especially given that it has been decades since they last performed in Fort Worth. The excitement is palpable, with local pride at stake as attendees hope the band acknowledges their presence in Fort Worth, rather than lumping it in with nearby Dallas. With Fort Worth now recognized as the nation’s 10th largest city, it’s a moment of civic pride for the locals. Geddy and Alex, feel free to reach out for some recommendations for great Mexican cuisine in the area!

In celebration of its 46th anniversary, Jubilee Theatre (506 Main St, Fort Worth, 817-338-4411) will present “Sassy Mamas” from June 26 to 28. Directed by Davian Jackson, this play tells the story of three accomplished women who, later in life, bravely return to the dating scene, seeking younger partners affectionately termed “tenders.” Although the play has a playful and sexy exterior, it ultimately conveys a message of empowerment, as the women challenge societal norms regarding age and love.
