SIX SUPERB THEATRE EXPERIENCES FOR NEW YORK CITY TRAVELERS
Beetlejuice, Hamilton, Funny Girl, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Little Shop of Horrors, and The Metropolitan Opera have joined Broadway Inbound’s The Broadway Collection in 2022 to dazzle and delight travelers from across the globe.
Beetlejuice reopened at the Marquis Theater on April 8, 2022. The musical follows the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose house is haunted by a recently deceased couple and demon named Beetlejuice. Hilarity ensues when Lydia calls on the demon to scare away her parents, sure to leave audiences laughing long after curtain call.
Hamilton, Broadway’s smash-hit that tells the story of the unlikely, hungry, and ambitious Founding Father determined to make a change in his new nation, has delighted New Yorkers and visitors from near and far since opening in 2015. George Washington, Eliza Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton’s lifelong friend/foe Aaron Burr all make their mark in this exciting and groundbreaking musical exploration of a political mastermind – and new addition to The Broadway Collection.
Funny Girl returned to Broadway in April 2022 for the first time since its debut 58 years ago. Featuring some of the most iconic songs in theatre canon, including “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” this bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage. Everyone told her she’d never be a star, but then something funny happened—she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway.
Currently playing at the Lyric Theatre, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has been a huge hit since opening in April 2018 and is rejoining The Broadway Collection. Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, the newly condensed play brings one of the world’s most iconic characters to life on stage. Once a two-part epic, the script has been reworked during the COVID-19 pandemic to be a three and a half hour play, still featuring awe-inspiring theatrical witchcraft and wizardry that will leave millennial travelers from around the world spellbound.
Cult classic Little Shop of Horrors, based on the horror black comedy musical 1960 film, has returned to its acclaimed, sold-out run at the Westside Theatre. Following nerdy and meek plant store attendant Seymour, his co-worker and crush Audrey, her sadistic dentist boyfriend, and the world’s most ravenous plant, the smash-hit production and new addition to The Broadway Collection has made millions of theatergoers laugh, scream, and give up gardening for good.
Known as the venue for the world’s best voices, The Metropolitan Opera has opened the doors to its vibrant home for the most creative and talented artists, including singers, conductors, composers, orchestra musicians, choreographers, and dancers from around the world to The Broadway Collection. Now in its 126th season, visitors from across the globe can catch some of the world’s greatest singers on the world’s greatest stage.
