Shubert Theatre New Haven Announces 2022-2023 Broadway Series Featuring MY FAIR LADY, A SOLDIER'S PLAY & More

Anthony McDonald, Executive Director of Shubert Theatre, has announced the lineup of the 2022-2023 Broadway Series shows for the theatre's 108th Anniversary Season.

Mr. McDonald commented, "As I enter my second year as Executive Director of Shubert Theatre, I am proud of the progress we have made in re-engaging our patrons this season. It has been exciting for me to plan a varied lineup of shows for what will be my inaugural season. From an enchanting classic, a riveting new production and an inspiring triumph of the spirit; to sidesplitting irreverent comedy and a rockin' iconic musical-I'm convinced that the 2022-2023 Broadway Series is going to be one of Shubert's best!"

The 5-Show Broadway Series will begin in October with Lerner & Loewe's MY FAIR LADY (October 19-22, 2022). This touring production comes to the Shubert Stage where the original production of My Fair Lady made its World Premiere in 1956. And in the tradition of the theater's legacy, Shubert Theatre will be the host venue for the Technical Rehearsals and Tour Launch of A SOLDIER'S PLAY (December 8-11, 2022). This 1982 Pulitzer Prize-winning thriller by Charles Fuller, has rocketed back into the spotlight, thanks to this 2020 Tony Award-winning Best Revival from Roundabout Theatre Company. Broadway's Norm Lewis will lead a powerhouse cast in this all-new production, directed by Tony winner Kenny Leon.

The series follows with THE BOOK OF MORMON, the nine-time Tony Award-winning Best Musical which returns by popular demand March 3-5, 2023. Then, prepare for a performance of great songs and dance when ON YOUR FEET! takes the stage March 23-26, 2023. This all-new original musical based on the inspiring true story about Gloria and Emilio Estefan features some of the most iconic songs from the past quarter-century. The Broadway Series culminates with a new, mesmerizing production of the iconic musical phenomenon, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR (April 21-23, 2023). With lyrics and music by Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony winners Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, this musical appeals to both theater audiences and concert music fans.
