“Covenant I,' a new single from the vampire pop opera BLOOD/LOVE, is now available. The track serves as the opening number for the musical, which is in performances at Theater 555 in New York City. Listen to it now. 

The Lost Boys on Broadway has released all new key art, featuring photos of the cast, in stark 'day' and 'night' constrasting posters. Check out the photos and learn more about the show here!

Initially billed as a show that was 'lovingly ripped off' from the 1975 cult classic film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the Tony Award–winning 2005 Broadway musical comedy MONTY PYTHON'S SPAMALOT™ gleefully gallops back onto the stage in a brand new production with its signature coconut-clacking bravado, irreverent wit, and steadfast commitment to theatrical absurdity very much intact. The show's latest national tour—replicating its 2023 revival directed and choreographed by Josh Rhodes—continues its short week-long engagement at OC's Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa through February 22, 2026 (the show is also scheduled for the Hollywood Pantages Theatre from March 24 through April 12).

Blood/Love is now playing Off-Broadway at Theater 555. You can now get a first look at production photos. Blood/Love is a new original musical written by Carey Renee Sharpe and Grammy nominee Dru DeCaro.

The barricade is up at the Orpheum Theatre, and yep — Les Misérables still packs a punch. It’s in town through February 22 with the Bank of America Broadway on Hennepin series, and whether you’re a longtime fan or finally seeing what all the fuss is about, this cast makes it worth the trip downtown.

An embarrassment of theatrical riches, bordering on sensory, stimulating overload, is on display in an exceptionally bold and satisfying reimagining of the very influential musical Pal Joey—now reconceived as Chez Joey. The show still takes place in the 1940’s Chicago music/nightclub scene, but it has been opened up to explore potent possibilities that are realized in this production.

BroadwayWorld chats with Connecticut native Amanda Robles, who plays The Lady of the Lake in the North American Tour of Spamalot.

On Presidents Day, the cast of Broadway's Ragtime will take the stage on The View for a special performance from the hit revival. Tune in to watch the performance, airing Monday, February 16, at 11 a.m.-12 p.m. EDT on ABC.

THE OUTSIDERS presents an original and vibrant stage adaptation of S.E. Hinton’s classic 1967 novel about the conflict between Tulsa teen gangs the Greasers and the Socs (short for socialites). The musical — and particularly director Danya Taymor’s inventive and visually dynamic staging — pulses with youthful energy, but the material doesn’t feel juvenile.

Broadway's Stranger Things: The First Shadow, the prequel play to the Netflix series, will be filmed this week for a future release on the streamer. Performances from Tuesday, February 10 to Saturday, February 14 have been canceled to accommodate.

As the recipient of two Tony Awards for Best Director of a Musical in the past three years, there’s no question that Michael Arden is at the top of his game. Between thrilling and inventive revivals of Parade and Once On This Island, and exciting new work like Maybe Happy Ending and the upcoming The Lost Boys, Arden has shown a remarkable ability to create theatrical magic. 

As Harold Zidler says, “Welcome, you gorgeous collection of bohemians and aristocrats, boulevardiers and mademoiselles, welcome to the Moulin Rouge!” What a welcome it is. The ten-time Tony Award winner makes its Sacramento debut at Broadway Sacramento in an explosive and sexy celebration of “truth, beauty, freedom, and love.”

Bob The Drag Queen has officially taken over the role of “Harold Zidler” in Moulin Rouge! The Musical on Broadway.  You can now get a first look at production photos here! 

“Get your freak/kink on” and show your tolerance for all---seems to be the message of the eternally popular musical plea for acceptance and inclusivity that constitutes the musical Kinky Boots.

Maybe Happy Ending stars Darren Criss and Helen J Shen took the stage on Sunday during the 2026 Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony to perform the title song from the hit musical. Check out their performance now.

Reviewing the revered LES MISERABLES is always a mixed bag. The show, running Jan. 27–Feb. 1 at the Ohio Theatre (39 E. State Street, downtown Columbus), is a towering piece of musical theater history. It has a cadre of powerful songs (“Do You Hear The People Sing?,” “I Dreamed a Dream,” and “One More Day” … that’s just in the first act), and characters that linger with you long after the curtain falls.

To say that the Tony Award-winning 2022 musical “Some Like It Hot,” which Broadway in Boston is presenting at Citizens Opera House through February 8, has quite a pedigree is putting it mildly.

There is nothing that signals MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL faster than the words, “Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?” From the show's opening moments, the production strongly announced its arrival in Vancouver, BC with confidence and attitude. This week, Broadway Across Canada brought the 10-time Tony Award-winning musical, MOULIN ROUGE! to the Queen Elizabeth Theatre.  

Sam Tutty and Christiani Pitts, stars of Broadway’s Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York), will visit Good Morning America next week for a conversation and performance from the new musical. 

You can now get a first look at photos of Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy in the Year 7 company of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, now playing at the Lyric Theatre.
