Rise and shine, BroadwayWorld! It is June 18, 2026 and it's time to catch up on all of the theatrical happenings you may have missed in the last 24 hours.

As substantial as its built-in assets are, the two-time Tony Award winner, musical is lacking in other areas. Book writer Kristoffer Diaz has crafted an exciting leading character, and an even more interesting supporting player. Alas, he has also included a rather perfunctory family triangle that gums up the play’s second act
Ashley Blair and Drew Reilly, alumni of The Second City, bring their experimental comedy concert MEGASQUIRT: FULLY LOADED to Underbelly Cowgate for its UK premiere, blending original songs, sketch comedy, and audience interaction rooted in queer internet culture.
Tickets for Rent, the 30th Anniversary Concert sold out in minutes and a livestream option will now be available for fans around the world to tune in to the gala celebration.
AKW Entertainment and producers of the Grammy and Tony Award-winning musical HELL’S KITCHEN have announced that tickets will go on sale for the Portland engagement that premieres at the Keller Auditorium.

Recent Cutbacks will return to Pleasance Courtyard at Edinburgh Fringe with FLY, YOU FOOLS!, a live parody compressing 178 minutes of iconic fantasy cinema into 60, featuring three actors and a Foley artist.
Alliance Theatre has released a sneak peek of Zack Calderon (Nunu), Nathan Diaz (Dani), and Dario Alvarez (José) performing 'I Can Hear the Stars' from BASURA, the world premiere musical now playing through July 12, 2026 on the Coca-Cola Stage.
Prepare to cry. The Notebook musical was quietly powerful, beautifully performed, emotionally shattering, and enriched by thoughtful new creative choices that deepen the story without distracting from it.
Anne Tolpegin steps into two pivotal roles as The Notebook opens tonight at the Straz Center, portraying both Allie’s protective mother and the no‑nonsense Nurse Lori. “Her mother really is only looking after Allie’s best interests,” she says, while Nurse Lori is “just a very busy, very sort of can’t catch up nurse” doing her best inside a care facility where love and memory collide.
THE NOTEBOOK The Musical was a charming chamber piece when I first read Bekah Brunstetter's adaptation of Nicholas Sparks' breakout bestseller. But the touring version is now playing to bigger houses than either its original Chicago premiere or its New York engagement. With Broadway-extravaganza pretensions. Call me back when a local company decides to mount this musical at an appropriate scale.
Orfeh will join Harbour Lights Theatre's summer production of Dear Evan Hansen in the role of Heidi Hansen, Evan's mother. The production is directed by Adam Pascale.
The North American Tour of THE NOTEBOOK announced 26 new cities for its upcoming season, including stops in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, and Houston, after welcoming over 500,000 patrons since its launch.
