I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I apologize if it has been, but there's a concert streaming tonight from the Lyric Chicago featuring several Broadway stars like Gavin Creel and Norm Lewis, among others. The song list is out and it looks awesome!
Is Lyric no longer presenting “Broadway at Lyric?” They usually present a Broadway musical in the spring and they haven’t made an announcement for one yet.
In our millions, in our billions, we are most powerful when we stand together. TW4C unwaveringly joins the worldwide masses, for we know our liberation is inseparably bound.

This was an online only event in 2021. They hadn’t returned to in-person audiences yet.

If it were to be part of their 24/25 season then going from past years the season announcement might not come until March.
From online opera chat boards, it seems that having a Broadway selection as part of the season has been very unpopular with their subscriber base, even if they do end up selling enough individual tickets for all performances. But they get subscriber money early, so it is important, especially with all arts groups everywhere still rebuilding from the pandemic.
