New year, new shows.
Once the ball dropped in Times Square, the clock ticked over to 2024 and just days later, never-before-seen productions began opening up on Broadway.
Just a few of the buzzy B’way blockbusters that we’re most excited about include “An Enemy Of The People” (featuring Jeremy Strong and Michael Imperioli), “Uncle Vanya” (starring Steve Carell and Alfred Molina) and “Mother Play” (with Jessica Lange and Jim Parsons).
But that’s not all.
High-profile revivals of “Cabaret,” “Doubt,” “The Wiz,” “The Who’s Tommy” and “Hamlet” are all coming to the Great White Way in these next few months, too.
Who are all the eligible upcoming Tony contenders? Who are the big stars headed to Midtown in the very near future? How much are all the cheapest available tickets for the shows?
Great questions all around and ones we’d love to help answer.
Below, you’ll find our comprehensive list of the 20 biggest shows opening on Broadway in 2024.
