SPOTLIGHT ON News

2023-2024 BROADWAY SERIES ANNOUNCED

While we still have Moulin Rouge! and SIX to look forward to this season, our upcoming KeyBank Broadway Series is a spectacular mix of exciting new musicals and some new twists on beloved favorites. Let’s take a closer look at the first three shows coming to The Land next season (the next four will be in your Moulin Rouge! program). Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube for even more content about #BWYCLE.

EASING ONTO THE CONNOR PALACE STAGE in October will be the muchloved reimagining of The Wizard of Oz — The Wiz. First performed on Broadway in 1974, The Wiz won seven Tony Awards including Best Musical. Many will remember the 1978 movie adaption that starred Diana Ross. This highly anticipated revival of The Wiz is a pre-Broadway tour, the first of its kind in 40 years. The powerhouse design team includes Academy Award winner Hannah Beachler (Black Panther, Beyonce’s “Lemonade”), Emmy Award winner and two-time Academy Award nominee Sharen Davis (Ray, Dreamgirls), Barrymore Award winner Ryan J. O’Gara (Thoughts of a Colored Man) and Academy Award winner Mia Neal (Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom).

THE LEGENDARY MUSIC OF BOB DYLAN takes center stage October/November in the beautiful production of Girl from the North Country. With a book by Irish playwright Conor McPherson, this show debuted in London in 2017, winning the Olivier Award for Best Musical. Simon Hale’s reimagining of 20 Bob Dylan songs — including “Forever Young,” “Hurricane,” “Slow Train Coming,” and “Like a Rolling Stone” — won the 2022 Tony Award for Best Orchestrations.

IN JANUARY, WE SAY “HELLLLOOOOO!” TO MRS. DOUBTFIRE.

Based on the 1993 Robin Williams film of the same name, Mrs. Doubtfire opened on Broadway back in 2020, bringing everyone’s favorite Scottish granny to the world of musical theater. Don’t worry, dearies, your favorite movie moments appear on stage … but as you’ve never seen them before! Directed by four-time Tony Award winner Jerry Zaks, this heart-warming and family-friendly comedy is just what we’ll need to chase away the winter blahs. Photo: Rob McClure (Daniel Hillard as Euphegenia Doubtfire) in the Original Broadway Cast of Mrs. Doubtfire.

SPOTLIGHT ON The District

NEW MARQUEES ON THE WAY

Back in October 2022, we unveiled the next phase of our neighborhood transformation. Designed to bring the grandeur and beauty of our 100-year-old, fully-restored theaters outdoors, this next phase features dazzling new theater marquees and technology upgrades for elements installed during the original phase of the transformation. With the old facades being removed, work can now officially begin on our new marquees.

CHEERS TO THEATER

Guests can say ‘sip, sip, hooray’ as they enjoy a drink at a PSQ District restaurant before taking their seat for the big show. From the perfect pint at Parnell’s Irish Pub to the show-inspired drinks list at District and the twists on classic cocktails at Republic and Bin 216, visitors can set the stage for a great night out in the theater district. Nonalcoholic beers and mocktails are also available at certain venues.

SPRING STAYCATION

For guests and families embracing staycation options this spring and summer, the Crowne Plaza Cleveland is located in the heart of the PSQ District and offers ease for exploring Downtown Cleveland and enjoying performances at Playhouse Square. Just steps away from the theaters, the boutique-style hotel boasts delicious meal and drink options at Ghost Light Restaurant and Lounge, a newly remodeled indoor swimming pool and an on-site fitness center, in addition to its numerous rooms and suites, some with views of the stunning GE Chandelier.

SPOTLIGHT ON The Dazzle Awards

The Dazzle Awards presented by Pat and John Chapman inspire and honor excellence in high school musical theater and recognize the importance of musical theater and arts-education within the Northeast Ohio community. The program offers arts education opportunities throughout the school year, including professional master classes, audition workshops and a Technical Apprenticeship. The program culminates regionally at Playhouse Square with the Dazzle Awards Ceremony, modeled after the Tony Awards®, to recognize outstanding musical theater productions and students. The 2023 Dazzle Awards Ceremony is in the KeyBank State Theatre on May 20 at 7:30 p.m.

Payton St. John, the first Spirit of the Dazzle Awards recipient in 2018, reflects on the experience: “The Dazzle Awards program was a major highlight of my high school experience. I have a deep passion for art and artmaking, so to have an entity that supports, cultivates, and celebrates performing artists is an unbelievable gift. Participating in the Dazzle Awards helped me to excavate more of myself, more of my artistic identity, while also finding confidence, trust, and belief in that artist.”

Our 2019 Spirit of the Dazzle Awards recipient, Sydney Montique, has advice for this year’s hopefuls: “Keep striving for stars, never think your talent isn’t enough, someone is always watching you. Being kind and helping others learn the routine helps make the theater world a better place, and it can open a world of opportunities!”

TAKE THE

Our goal for the Dazzle Challenge is to raise $25,000 by June 30 to help the program grow and thrive. Your donation supports:

32 participating schools

1,800+ participating students

Eight Broadway Master Classes

One Tech Master Class Audition Workshops

Technical Apprenticeship for up to three students

Student Reporter Program with four students

Musical Apprenticeship for up to five students

An additional generous contribution will be made by long-time Trustee John Chapman and his wife Pat, who are committed to helping to provide inspiring and engaging opportunities through the arts.

PROGRAM NOTE David Greene

One of the best-selling recording artists of all time, Tina Turner is a 12-time Grammy Award winner, two-time inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and ranked by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the Top 100 Artists of All Time and 100 Greatest Singers of All Time. She is “Simply the Best.”

Considered the “Queen of Rock ’n’ Roll” by many, Tina Turner has quite the storied life. Born Anna Mae Bullock in 1939 in rural Tennessee, Tina started singing as a teenager, and by 1957 at age 17, became part of the band Kings of Rhythm, led by piano- and guitar-playing Ike Turner. Soon after, with a new given name, she would go on tour with her future husband as the Ike and Tina Turner Revue. It was in 1960 that the duo would have their first hit single “A Fool in Love,” which was followed by a string of chart toppers over the next decade and a half.

Even with the immensely successful recording and performance careers, accolades, awards, fame and fortune, life as a duo would come to an end in the mid-1970s. After years of physical and mental abuse, Tina left Ike as a music and life partner and launched a solo career that would reach superstar status in 1984 with the release of the Private Dancer album. She never looked back.

When Tina was approached about the idea of making a musical about her life and career, her immediate response was NO. She said that she didn’t feel like talking about her past because it gave her bad dreams. She agreed only after realizing that the story of her life — a story of a little girl who grew up with big ambitions; the story of a young woman who entered into a marriage with nothing but her voice and her dreams and barely escaped with just that same voice and those same dreams; the story of a middle-aged woman who, with the odds against her, would rise to even higher stardom and find true love — could touch the lives of others and give them hope.

Tina could have easily succumbed to the many hardships she faced and the tragedies that surrounded her. She hopes her story inspires a new generation of women and anyone facing their own challenges to stand proud, with their chests out and chins up, believing in their own power.

It was important to Tina that the show not hold back on the storytelling, to be truthful AND entertaining. Celebrating one of the most powerful and unique artists of a generation, get ready to enjoy hit song after hit song; notorious dance moves; and the iconic costumes, wigs, lights and flamboyance that epitomize Tina Turner as the “Queen of Rock ’n’ Roll.”

Enjoy,
