There are some great Broadway plays coming up. Click on the paragraph to view ticket information for each play (if available).
A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE, a revival of Arthur Miller’s drama centering on a dockworker who becomes too protective of his niece. In A View From The Bridge, Arthur Miller's most passionate drama, Liev Schreiber plays Eddie Carbone, a Brooklyn longshoreman obsessed with his 17-year-old niece Catherine, played by Scarlett Johansson. When Catherine falls in love with a newly arrived immigrant, Eddie's jealousy erupts in a rage that consumes him, his family, and his world. Opening January 24 at the Cort Theatre.
For Sinatra fans, we have Twyla Tharp’s COME FLY AWAY at the Marquis Theatre, previews start on March 1 and opens on March 2. COME FLY AWAY follows four couples as they fall in and out of love during one song and dance filled evening at a crowded nightclub. Blending the legendary vocals of Frank Sinatra with a live on stage 19-piece big band and 15 of the world's finest dancers, "Come Fly Away" weaves an unparalleled hit parade of classics, including "Fly Me To The Moon," "My Way," and "That's Life" into a soaring musical fantasy of romance and seduction.
Broadway favorites Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth will be starring in the new Andrew Lippa, Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice musical inspired ADDAMS FAMILY, A NEW MUSICAL. It's an Addams Family portrait you've never seen before: Gomez, all mad impetuosity; Morticia, equal parts fire and ice; Fester, restless and romantic; Pugsley, for whom immediate gratification can't come soon enough and Wednesday, eighteen years old and finally feeling what it means to be a woman. You will see a family that's quite shockingly, and endearingly, just like yours starting April 8th at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre.
