Playhouse Square announces the 2023-2024 KeyBank Broadway Series lineup

Playhouse Square announced yesterday, Tuesday, March 28, that seven shows will be featured on the upcoming 2023-2024 KeyBank Broadway Series.

The season kicks off in October with The Wiz (October 3-22), followed by Girl From the North Country (October 31-November 19), Mrs. Doubtfire (January 9–28), Funny Girl (February 20–March 10), Company (April 30–May 19, 2024), Back to the Future: The Musical (June 11–July 7, 2024) and MJ (July 16–August 11, 2024). 

Playhouse Square will host in June 2024 the official North American tour opening of Back To The Future: The Musical—less than 12 months after the show’s August Broadway opening. Based on the Universal Pictures/Amblin Entertainment film written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, the musical is adapted for the stage by Gale with original music and lyrics by multi-Grammy Award winners Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard, as well as hit songs from the movie including “The Power of Love,” “Johnny B. Goode,” “Earth Angel,” and “Back in Time.” It is directed by Tony Award-winner John Rando with production design by multi-Tony and Olivier Award winner Tim Hatley. 

In October, Cleveland will be one of the first cities in the country to experience a pre-Broadway stop of The Wiz, which will begin touring ahead of a limited Broadway run in spring 2024.
