Broadway Center Stage: Guys and Dolls

October 5-10, 2022 in the Eisenhower Theater

Directed by Marc Bruni, this is Broadway at its show-stopping best. Hailed by many as the perfect musical comedy, this Tony-winning favorite follows a rowdy bunch of gamblers, gangsters, and sassy showgirls in a wild game of chance and love. Set in bustling 1950s Manhattan, Guys and Dolls features some of Frank Loesser's most memorable tunes including the hilarious "Adelaide's Lament," the romantic "I've Never Been in Love Before," and the crowd-pleasing "Luck Be a Lady."

 

Broadway Center Stage: Andrew Lloyd Webber's Sunset Boulevard

February 1-6, 2023 in the Eisenhower Theater

Alone in her Hollywood mansion with little more than celluloid memories, former silent-screen star Norma Desmond remains what she has always been: the greatest star of all. For Broadway Center Stage, Tony-winning powerhouse Stephanie J. Block (The Cher Show, Falsettos, Wicked) takes on this iconic role. Based on the 1950 film noir, Andrew Lloyd Webber's Tony-winning masterpiece weaves a compelling tale of romance, obsession, and faded glory.

 

Broadway Center Stage: Kiss of the Spider Woman

June 7-12, 2023 in the Eisenhower Theater

Winner of seven Tony Awards including Best Musical, Kiss of the Spider Woman revamps a compelling tale of oppression into a dazzling spectacle with John Kander and Fred Ebb's luminous score. Cellmates in an Argentinean prison, rugged revolutionary Valentin and persecuted gay man Molina, take mental refuge in movie-musical memories of the glamourous diva, Aurora-but reverie and reality soon begin to blur.

Holy sh*t. Guess I'm going to DC next February.

Who do I throw my money at.   I'm gonna be needing a ticket for every performance of the run.  Best need of the year!!!

This is insanely perfect casting, and, honestly, something I never would have thought of myself in a million years which makes it even more exciting!

Anyone else think it should just be a SJB season? I mean, she can just do all those shows!

Agreed, but I would love to see Katrina Lenk or Amber Gray as Aurora!"

YES and YES!

Wonderful news!!

Aurora/Spider Woman is typically a major dance role. Katrina Lenk has the perfect look and voice, but she's more of an "actor who sings," no? Anyway, love that Kiss of the Spider Woman is getting a major production. I don't know why it is so infrequently produced.

Katrina would be excellent, and before anyone complains, she’d be fine in the Vanessa Williams keys. The score is more within her wheelhouse than Company. 
I do think they’d likely go with someone of Hispanic /Latina  heritage.  Karen Olivo would’ve been wonderful before she retired. 
 

So excited to see this musical live finally.

Ariana DeBose before her schedule gets even MORE busy! haha.

Fully staged. 

I'm a bit confused on how their subscription works.I only see a handful of shows listed in the subscription. Will I unlock the ability to buy tickets to this if I get a season subscription?
