Proctors Collaborative Announces Proctors' 2022-2023 Season Featuring Hamilton, Tootsie, Jagged Little Pill & More

Proctors Collaborative has announced the next shows coming to Proctors in Schenectady for the 2022-2023 KeyBank Broadway Series. Due to complications due to COVID-19, the annual Proctors Collaborative announcement was held over two days starting with the Proctors announcement on the Proctors Facebook page on Monday, April 11. Each hour hosts John Gray and Lydia Kulbida from NEWS10 ABC were joined by Proctors CEO Philip Morris to announce a different show coming to Proctors this upcoming season.

Starting the announcement was Disney's Aladdin which will tech at Proctors and kicks off their newly imagined North American tour from Schenectady.

Then, Proctors is excited to bring a Broadway classic to our stage with Hairspray, which will be available as a crossover show to Capital Repertory Theatre subscribers.

Next on the calendar, a Broadway phenomenon, Proctors is bringing back the Tony Best Musical winner Hamilton. Joining them this season are Tootsie and Jagged Little Pill, which very recently closed its Broadway run due to COVID-19.

Closing out the season, Proctors can't wait to welcome back Ain't Too Proud - The Life and Times of the Temptations. Ain't Too Proud had previously 'teched' at Proctors in November 2021, though they didn't announce at the time when they would be returning.

"Probably the biggest sign that the Proctors Collaborative is back is our ability to announce a new season! Imagine, a Disney tech is returning with Aladdin, Hamilton returns, and as many Tony awarded shows will be here as ever before. Yes, Proctors, UPH and theRep are back," says Proctors Collaborative CEO Philip Morris.

Subscriptions for the 2022-2023 KeyBank Broadway Series at Proctors go on sale Wednesday, April 13 and are available through the Box Office at Proctors, in person or via phone at 518-346-6204 Monday-Friday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. or online at proctors.org.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, April 12, Capital Repertory Theatre will be announcing its season on the Capital Repertory Theatre Facebook page.
