SIX
SIX will include eight performances from Oct. 31-Nov. 5, 2023. From Tudor queens to pop icons, the six wives of Henry VIII take the microphone to remix 500 years of historical heartbreak into a euphoric celebration of 21st-century girl power! The New York Times says SIX “totally rules!” (Critic’s Pick). The SIX Broadway album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard cast album charts and surpassed 6 million streams in its first month.
Jagged Little Pill
Jagged Little Pill will include eight performances from Dec. 5-10, 2023. Joy, love, heartache, strength, wisdom, catharsis, life takes place in this Broadway show based on Alanis Morissette’s music.
Wicked
Wicked will include 16 performances from Jan. 10-21, 2024. The Broadway sensation Wicked looks at what happened in the Land of Oz, but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another young woman, born with emerald-green skin, who is smart, fiery, misunderstood and possesses an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships, until the world decides to call one “good” and the other one “wicked.”
Hadestown
Hadestown will include 8 performances from March 5-10, 2024. Intertwining two mythic tales – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone – Hadestown is a theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.
To Kill A Mockingbird
To Kill A Mockingbird will include eight performances from April 2-7, 2024. The New York Times Critic’s Pick To Kill A Mockingbird is “the most successful American play in Broadway history” (60 Minutes). New York Magazine calls it “a real phenomenon. Majestic and incandescent, it’s filled with breath and nuance and soul.” To Kill A Mockingbird has quickly become “one of the greatest plays in history” (NPR).
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice will include eight performances from June 11-16, 2024. Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes.
