BOSTON – Broadway In Boston is pleased to announce the upcoming 2013-2014 Lexus Broadway Season which will include ten theatrical productions at the Boston Opera House, the Citi Performing Arts Center Emerson Colonial Theatre, the Citi Performing Arts Center Wang Theatre and the Charles Playhouse.

“We remain committed to ensuring that Boston continues to be the pre-eminent destination for all Broadway productions,” said Rich Jaffe, President of Broadway In Boston. “The variety of our Season reinforces our commitment to developing a deeper sense of community and expanding the diversity of our programming and audiences.”

 

In partnership with the Citi Performing Arts Center, Broadway In Boston’s commitment to keep the lights shining bright at the Citi Performing Arts Center Emerson Colonial Theatre continues with four productions scheduled.

Launching the upcoming 2013-2014 Season at the Citi Emerson Colonial Theatre is the highly anticipated World Premiere Pre-Broadway engagement of TUCK EVERLASTING which continues the long-standing tradition of the Pre-Broadway tryout at this historic theatre.

Audiences are invited to relive the famed recording session that brought together rock ‘n roll icons Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins for one of the greatest jam sessions of all times when MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET arrives in Boston this Fall.

The film defined a generation and became a pop culture phenomenon and now, FLASHDANCE – THE MUSICAL dances its way onto the stage of the Citi Emerson Colonial Theatre next Spring.

Also scheduled, is the new production of I LOVE LUCY® LIVE ON STAGE, a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience that will transport Boston theater-goers back to 1952 as part of a live TV studio audience reminding us all – whether young or old – that everybody really does LOVE LUCY!

The Boston Opera House will play host when WE WILL ROCK YOU, the worldwide smash hit musical by Queen and Ben Elton featuring the legendary British rock group’s greatest songs, comes to Boston this Fall.

Kicking off the New Year is Broadway’s 2012 Tony Award winning Best Musical ONCE, an original Broadway experience that features an impressive ensemble of actor/musicians who play their own instruments onstage, which will be unforgettable for Boston audiences in every way.

Back by popular demand is the moving and emotionally-charged AMERICAN IDIOT, based on Green Day’s Grammy Award-winning multi-Platinum album featuring some of their biggest hits.

 

Rounding out the Broadway In Boston Season is Cameron Mackintosh’s stunning new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s internationally acclaimed THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA which premieres in Boston following its sold out UK tour.
