Les Miserables
Les MiserablesA legendary musical by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schonberg based on Victor Hugo's famous novel of 19th century France.
The action begins in 1815 as Jean Valjean, a man condemned to 19 years of hard labor for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his family, finds only hatred and suspicion when he is released on parole. Meeting one man who believes in him, Valjean breaks his parole to begin a new life. The story truly begins as Jean Valjean crosses the landscape of early 19th century France, always pursued by the righteous police inspector Javert. From his adoption and love of the orphan Cosette, to the darkly funny plots of the thieving Thenardiers, from the soaring revolutionary fire of the student rebels who fight on the barricade in the streets of Paris to the final confrontation between Jean Valjean and Javert, the story of Les Miserables is one of love, courage and redemption.

Avenue Q
This hilarious and heartfelt Tony winner takes place on an urban street where humans and puppets deal with modern life.
Avenue Q is the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account. He soon discovers that the only neighborhood in his price range is Avenue Q; still, the neighbors seem nice. There's Brian the out-of-work comedian and his therapist fiancée Christmas Eve; Nicky the good-hearted slacker and his roommate Rod--a Republican investment banker who seems to have some sort of secret; an Internet addict called Trekkie Monster; and a very cute kindergarten teaching assistant named Kate. And would you believe the building's superintendent is Gary Coleman?!? (Yes, that Gary Coleman.) Together, Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.Avenue Q debuted at the Vineyard Theatre off-Broadway and was a quick hit with both critics and theatergoing urbanites, all of which took to the grown-up life lessons that the show has to offer. Audiences continued to grow when the little-show-that-could moved uptown, opening at Broadway's Golden Theatre in the summer of 2003 to even more widespread rave reviews. Tony voters agreed with the critics and awarded Avenue Q as the Best Musical of the season as well as choosing to honor its young writers trophies for Best Original Score and Best Book of a Musical.

Chicago
Vaudeville-era merry murderesses Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly find that making headlines pays off in this razzle-dazzle hit musical.
Murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and treachery--all those things we hold near and dear to our hearts."So begins the musical Chicago--and creators John Kander, Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse never back off from their bold and sinister promise. Chicago is the kiss-and-tell tale of Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who kills her lover as a career move; Billy Flynn, a sharp lawyer who turns Roxie into a celebrity; and Velma Kelly, a dancing jailbird with an ear for headlines and an eye for talent.
Chicago, winner of six 1997 Tony Awards, including Best Musical Revival, is a loving look back at vaudeville, a timely satire of the justice system, and a reminder of what great theater can be. Come see the stage version that grabbed Broadway's attention years before the acclaimed film version made a killing at the Academy Awards. See Chicago live!

Curtains
A new musical comedy featuring one of the last scores by legendary songwriting team, Kander & Ebb.
A tribute to the big, brassy musical comedies of the 1950s, Curtains is a savagely funny new musical comedy, starring four-time Emmy Award-winner David Hyde Pierce (Frasier, Spamalot) and Tony Award-winner Debra Monk (Redwood Curtain, Steel Pier, NYPD Blue) and featuring a show-stopping score by the team of John Kander & Fred Ebb, the Tony Award-winning songwriters of such hits as Chicago, Cabaret and "New York, New York."Curtains unfolds backstage at Boston's Colonial Theatre in 1959, where a new musical could be a Broadway smash, were it not for the presence of its talent-free leading lady. When the hapless star dies on opening night during her curtain call, Lieutenant Frank Cioffi arrives on the scene to conduct an investigation. But the lure of the theatre proves irresistible and after an unexpected romance blooms for the stage-struck detective, he finds himself just as drawn toward making the show a hit, as he is in solving the murder.

Hairspray
This tuneful Tony-winning triumph is just as big as the hairdos that inspired it!
With big girls, big hair, and even bigger laughs, comes Hairspray, a splashy new musical based on the 1988 John Waters film that starred Divine and a then-unknown Ricki Lake.It's 1962 and pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one dream--to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star, but she must use her newfound power to vanquish the reigning teen queen, win the affections of heartthrob Link Larkin and integrate a TV network, all without denting her 'do!
Hairspray became an immediate Broadway smash when it premiered at the Neil Simon Theatre in the summer of 2002. After winning eight Tony Awards including Best Musical, its place in Broadway history was confirmed. To quote one of the show's many catchy songs, "you can't stop the beat" of this hair-hopping hit!

The Lion King
Disney's beloved movie comes to brilliant life through the magic of Julie Taymor.
Giraffes strut, birds swoop, gazelles leap! The entire savanna comes to life and, as the music soars, Pride Rock slowly rises out of the stage. This is The Lion King.The winner of six 1998 Tony Awards, including Best New Musical, it is the story of a young lion cub named Simba who struggles to accept the responsibilities of adulthood and his destined role as king. To bring the classic 1994 film to life, Disney turned to the story's roots, its rich mythology, powerful human drama and primal African rhythms to create a fantastic new musical unlike anything Broadway has ever seen.
Marvel at the breathtaking spectacle of animals miraculously brought to life by a cast of over 40 actors in what The London Daily Telegraph calls "a blaze of fabulous imagination." Wonder at the inspiration of award-winning director/designer Julie Taymor, as one of the most successful films in history is stunningly recreated live on stage. Thrill to the pulsating rhythms of the African Pride Lands and an unforgettable score including Elton John and Tim Rice's Oscar-winning "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" and songs by South African composer Lebo M, Mark Mancina, Jay Rifkin, Julie Taymor, and Hans Zimmer. Treat yourself and your friends and family to a memory that will last a lifetime at the musical Time Magazine calls "awe-inspiring" and "a gorgeous, gasp-inducing spectacle!" The Lion King is an adventure into another world.

Based on the Academy Award-winning 1968 film of the same name, The Producers is the story of down-on-his-luck theatrical producer Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom, a mousy accountant. Together, they hatch the ultimate scam: Raise more money than you need for a sure-fire Broadway fiasco...and pocket the difference.The Producers has become a Broadway phenomenon, turning the tradition of a Broadway musical on its head and earning more Tony Awards than any other show in the history of the Great White Way. With tunes and a book by superstar comedian Mel Brooks and co-bookwriter Thomas Meehan (Hairspray), this big-time Broadway musical is truly one of the funniest shows around.
Stop by The Producers to visit "Little Old Lady Land," hear Ulla belt and laugh so hard you won't know what to do with yourself. "Everything you've heard is 100% true," says Clive Barnes of the New York Post. The Producers is "a cast-iron, super-duper mammoth old-time Broadway hit!"

Frank's Home (Off-Broadway)
Tony-winning director Robert Falls takes on this drama about famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, starring Peter Weller.
It is summer, 1923, and architect Frank Lloyd Wright has recently left Chicago for California, determined to embrace Hollywood's youthful zest and mend broken relationships with his adult children. Having completed his latest "wonder of the world" - Tokyo's Imperial Hotel - Wright is poised to settle down and embrace his new home. But his splintered family still holds deep-seated resentments.Frank's Home is a lyrical, heartbreaking story about one of our greatest, if less than perfect, visionaries - a man who created a new architectural vocabulary but couldn't create a home for himself and his family.

Blue Man Group (Off-Broadway)
Three bald, blue men show downtown crowds an unforgettable time.
Blue Man Group is one of New York's longest-running shows and one of its hardest to describe!In the show, three enigmatic bald and blue characters take the audience through a multi-sensory experience that combines theater, percussive music, art, science and vaudeville into a form of entertainment that is like nothing else either on or off Broadway.
The show's origins lead back to the late '80s, when longtime friends Chris Wink, Phil Stanton and Matt Goldman began to appear on the streets of Manhattan covered in blue make-up. The appearances led to a theatrical show, which premiered at the legendary performance space La Mama, ETC and finally to off-Broadway's Astor Place Theatre in 1991. Since then, over 60 Blue Men have entertained crowds in New York, Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas and beyond. Viva La Blue Man Group!

Wicked
Audiences are cheering for this musical hit inspired by the beloved story of The Wizard of Oz!
Long before Dorothy drops in, two girls meet in the land of Oz. One, born with emerald-green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. Wicked tells the story of how these two unlikely friends grew to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.This fantasy-filled musical was the winner of three 2004 Tony Awards including prizes for Best Costume Design and Best Scenic Design. From real flying monkeys to a trip to the Emerald City and a soaring, modern score by Stephen Schwartz, Wicked is a true spectacle for the eyes and ears.
The twists and turns in Gregory Maguire's incredibly imaginative back-story to The Wizard of Oz makes audiences literally gasp with delight. But not only that, Wicked is a truly heartfelt story of friendship and love. As Richard Zoglin of Time Magazine put it, "If every musical had a brain, a heart and the courage of Wicked, Broadway really would be a magical place!"
Also get tickets to Wicked's Behind the Emerald Curtain Tour, which runs every Saturday morning at 10AM at the Gershwin Theatre. Tickets to the show are not required for the tour.
