Overview
heart-pounding action adventure
Based on Dan Brown’s 2003 bestseller and adapted with the blessing of the author, The Da Vinci Code live stage production brings all the excitement of the book to a “fast-paced, two-hour roller coaster of thrills” (London Theatre). Theatregoers will get drawn into the mystery’s twists and turns as Professor Robert Langdon and agent Sophie Neveu race to solve a modern-day murder by deciphering the past. Surprising questions and personal connections weave through the world of religious art and conspiracy, and audiences will be on the edge of their seat from its cryptic start to its shocking finish.
The Da Vinci Code marks the first of the IRT’s co-productions with other League of Resident Theatres members for the 2026–2027 Season. After the show premieres in Indianapolis, it will move to Cleveland Play House in January 2027. Co-productions elevate the nationwide prominence of Indiana’s premiere regional theatre, and ensure longer contracts for creatives and cost savings for theatres.
“Patrons in our region have long appreciated the excellence of IRT’s productions and the incredible work of IRT artisans,” said Benjamin Hanna. “These partnerships provide sustainability for a rich creative life for our cast, crew, and patrons, and extend the reach of each story to even more audiences across the country.”
"We are delighted to partner with Indiana Repertory Theatre on The Da Vinci Code,” said CPH’s Managing Director Rachel Fink. “This is exactly the kind of collaboration we value at Cleveland Play House, bringing two great theatre communities together to create ambitious art for our audiences.”
The cast comprises accomplished actors from both across the country and right here in Indianapolis, including
Ryan Artzberger, Sean Blake, Jen Johnasen, Devan O’Mailia Mathias, and Eric Sharp returning to the IRT.
The Theatre will host supplemental programming during the run of the show, including a Community Conversation, featuring community members discussing our deep and enduring human fascination with symbols; Artist Conversations that provide a behind-the-scenes perspective on the production with the actors, directors, and designers who bring the show to life.
The Da Vinci Code is approximately 2 hour and 30 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission.
