Season renewals and priority orders are available now online at BroadwayinSouthBend.com, by calling 574.235.9190 or by visiting The Morris Performing Arts Center box office. “We are thrilled to bring the spectacular new production of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA to The Morris Performing Arts Center alongside a fantastic line-up of Tony Award-winners and Broadway favorites,” proclaimed Brian Liechty, President of the Broadway Theatre League. “The 2017-18 season truly has something for everyone! We look forward to contributing to the arts and culture of South Bend with this powerful season” In addition to THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and high-heeled hit KINKY BOOTS, the Broadway in South Bend line-up features the best of Broadway, including the record-breaking smash, MOTOWN THE MUSICAL and the legendary classic, A CHORUS LINE. Broadway Theatre League will also present a jaw-dropping season add-on, THE ILLUSIONISTS. The 2017-18 Broadway in South Bend Series includes the following national touring productions: MOTOWN THE MUSICAL December 1-3, 2017 It began as one man's story… became everyone's music… and is now Broadway's musical. MOTOWN THE MUSICAL is the true American dream story of Motown founder Berry Gordy’s journey from featherweight boxer to the heavyweight music mogul who launched the careers of Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson and many more. Motown shattered barriers, shaped our lives and made us all move to the same beat. Featuring classic songs such as “My Girl” and “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough,” experience the story behind the music in the record-breaking smash hit MOTOWN THE MUSICAL! A CHORUS LINE February 9-11, 2018 Winner of nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for drama, this singular sensation is one of the most treasured American Broadway musicals ever. In an empty theatre, on a bare stage, casting for a new Broadway musical is almost complete. For 17 dancers, this audition is the chance of a lifetime. It's what they've worked for - with every drop of sweat, every hour of training, every day of their lives. It's the one opportunity to do what they've always dreamed -- to have the chance to dance. This is A CHORUS LINE, the musical for everyone who’s ever had a dream and put it all on the line. THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA March 28-April 8, 2018 Cameron Mackintosh’s spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA will come to South Bend as part of a brand new North American Tour. Critics are raving that this breathtaking production is “bigger and better than ever before” and features a brilliant new scenic design by Paul Brown, Tony Award®-winning original costume design by Maria Björnson, lighting design by Tony Award®-winner Paule Constable, new choreography by Scott Ambler, and new staging by director Laurence Connor. The production, overseen by Matthew Bourne and Cameron Mackintosh, boasts many exciting special effects including the show’s legendary chandelier. The beloved story and thrilling score - with songs like “Music of the Night,” “All I Ask Of You,” and “Masquerade” - will be performed by a cast and orchestra of 52, making this PHANTOM one of the largest productions now on tour. KINKY BOOTS May 4-6, 2018 KINKY BOOTS is Broadway’s huge-hearted, high-heeled hit! With songs by Grammy® and Tony winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, this joyous musical celebration is about the friendships we discover, and the belief that you can change the world when you change your mind.

Charlie Price is struggling to live up to his father’s expectations and continue the family business of Price & Son. With the factory’s future hanging in the balance, help arrives in the unlikely but spectacular form of Lola, a fabulous performer in need of some sturdy new stilettos. With direction and choreography by two-time Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell (Legally Blonde, Hairspray), a book by Broadway legend and four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein (La Cage Aux Folles) and songs by Grammy and Tony winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, KINKY BOOTS is the winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Choreography.

  • Religious Roots Tangle with the Groovy ’60S - the New York Times
    'Kinky Boots' Sets April 4 Broadway Opening - NYTimes.com AUGUST 15, 2012, 3:13 PM ‘Kinky Boots’ Sets April 4 Broadway Opening By PATRICK HEALY "Kinky Boots," one of the most anticipated musicals of the new Broadway season, with Cyndi Laupermaking her debut as a songwriter for the stage, will begin performances on March 5, 2013, at the Al Hirschfeld Theater and open on April 4, the producers announced on Wednesday. Based on a 2005 British filmabout a shoe factory heir who enlists a drag queen to help save the family business, "Kinky Boots" will star the Tony Award nominee Stark Sands ("Journey's End," "American Idiot") as the scion Charlie and Billy Porter (Belize in the Off Broadway revival of "Angels in America") as the resourceful Lola. The show's book writer is Harvey Fierstein, who won a Tony for his book for "La Cage aux Folles" and was nominated in the category last season for the Broadway musical "Newsies." Ms. Lauper, a Grammy-winning pop icon of the 1980s, has written the music and lyrics for the production, which will have an out-of-town run in Chicago this fall. Jerry Mitchell will direct, and the lead producers are Daryl Roth and Hal Luftig. Like "Kinky Boots," most of the new Broadway musicals expected this season are inspired by movies or books; the others include "Bring It On," "Rebecca," "A Christmas Story," "Matilda," "Diner," and "Hands on a Hardbody." http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/08/15/kinky-boots-sets-april-4-broadway-opening/?pagewanted=print[8/16/2012 9:52:02 AM] Religious Roots Tangle With the Groovy ’60s - The New York Times August 15, 2012 THEATER REVIEW Religious Roots Tangle With the Groovy ’60s By JASON ZINOMAN Wearing a bushy beard and the absent-minded expression of a father preoccupied with work at the dinner table, Eric Anderson, who plays the Jewish singer Shlomo Carlebach in the bio-musical “Soul Doctor,” appears smaller than life.

I believe that as far as a piece of theatre goes, it has something to offer for everyone, from all walks of life. Theatrical education programs are vital in ensuring our young people are exposed to quality theatre that inspires on two levels; as audience members wanting to be entertained and as future artists and producers themselves. Being able to do this and have them exposed to exceptionally high quality productions at affordable prices is so important. I hope New South Wales students, like Victorian students, have an opportunity to experience this production, to be both thoroughly entertained, and to engage with the important issues it raises.” Joel Batalha Head of Senior School Brentwood Secondary College, Victoria 2 WELCOME CONTENTS School Implementation Plan ..................................................................................................................4 The Story ....................................................................................................................................................5 Cast & Creatives ......................................................................................................................................6
