2024 on Broadway is taking a bow! Many Hollywood stars are headed to the stage. What stage plays should be on your New Year’s list?
THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY
Emmy Award ® winner Sarah Snook, star of HBO’s smash-hit Succession, reprises her Olivier Award-winning performance in The Picture of Dorian Gray on Broadway. In this one-woman production, she plays all 26 characters in the play! Truly an acting feat not to be missed.
JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN
Stranger Things star Sadie Sink returns to the Broadway stage in a new comedy that flips the script on an American classic. At a high school in a rural town in Georgia, an English class is studying The Crucible, but the students are more preoccupied with navigating young love, sex ed, and a few school scandals. A show for the teens and young adults.
STRANGER THINGS: THE FIRST SHADOW
