From stirring dramas to exuberant musicals, these shows represent the pinnacle of theatrical excellence, showcasing exceptional talent both on stage and behind the scenes. Whether you’re a Broadway aficionado or a newcomer eager to experience the magic of live theatre, these Tony Award-nominated productions promise an unforgettable journey into the heart of New York City’s cultural landscape.

Among the standout performances is Hell’s Kitchen, which has garnered an impressive 13 Tony nominations.

Another exceptional production is Stereophonic, which has also garnered 13 Tony nominations. Written by David Adjmi and directed by Daniel Aukin, this electrifying play dives into the intense process of a band’s rise to fame, set in a 1976 music studio and featuring original music by Arcade Fire’s Will Butler.

Next up is The Outsiders, a gripping new musical that has earned 12 Tony nominations. Set in 1967 Tulsa, Oklahoma, it follows the turbulent lives of Ponyboy Curtis, Johnny Cade, and their group of “outsiders” as they navigate a world that often marginalizes them, bringing a fresh perspective to a timeless story of brotherhood and resilience.

One of the most intriguing productions this season is Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, which has secured nine Tony nominations.

Appropriate has been honored with eight Tony nominations this season. Set against the backdrop of a sweltering Arkansas summer, the Lafayette family’s reunion to settle their deceased patriarch’s estate quickly unearths long-buried secrets and unresolved tensions, leading to a riveting exploration of familial bonds and legacies. Catch it while you can—the show is slated to close on June 23.

Water for Elephants has captivated audiences with its enchanting adaptation of Sara Gruen’s beloved novel, earning seven Tony nominations in the process. Set against the backdrop of a Depression-era traveling circus, this visually stunning production transports viewers into a world of romance, adventure, and wonder.

Drawing inspiration from the suffragists of 1913 America, Suffs has earned six Tony nominations by bringing to life the fervent struggle for women’s voting rights. This compelling production delves into the diverse and often divided suffrage movement, highlighting the courage and resilience of the women who shaped history and continue to inspire future generations.

Mother Play has earned four Tony nominations with its compelling narrative set in 1962 just outside of D.C., where matriarch Phyllis imposes her rigid expectations on her teenage children as they settle into a new apartment. This thought-provoking drama, rich with imaginative theatrical elements and poignant moments, will close on June 16.

Mary Jane has received four Tony nominations for its poignant portrayal of a single mother navigating a challenging family situation. Closing on June 30, the show masterfully depicts Mary Jane’s journey, filled with optimism, humor, and the support of a close-knit community of women.

Illinoise has garnered four Tony nominations, captivating audiences with its blend of live music, evocative choreography, and heartfelt storytelling. Based on Sufjan Stevens’ seminal album, this production weaves together tales of first love, grief, and maturation in a unique, campfire-like setting, brought to life by an 11member band and director Justin Peck’s visionary choreography.

Broadway Guide Insider:

Nobody knows New York City like a local. Some of the city’s notable locals are also the stars of Broadway. We talked with Casey Likes who stars as Marty McFly in Broadway’s Back to the Future about his favorite places in New York City.

j Fox’s iconic performance to the stage combined with my own personality. Skateboarding, DeLorean Driving, and singing all the way!

How did you get your start in performing, and in what other shows have you performed?

Likes- I started performing on stage when I was three years old in a production of A Christmas Carol, where I played Tiny Tim with my real mom, Mrs. Crachitt. Although technically, my first job was a Goodwill commercial a few months prior. My mom was the person who introduced me

to performing. She planted the seed in my head, and it grew into the rest of my life. Last season, I was in Almost Famous on Broadway in the lead role of William Miller.

What is your favorite Broadway show to see as an audience member?

Likes- I will say that being in the audience of Jukebox shows like Moulin Rouge and MJ is very special because they bring new audiences to Broadway because of the music that they include. Very cool to be a part of crowds like that discovering the power of theatre.

What are your favorite NYC local tips?

Likes- Assuming that people are reading this as first-time New Yorkers, please just walk fast. Maybe not even fast, just at least briskly. I’m from the West Coast, too. I get it, but I had to learn, so girl, get ready to walk.

If you’re going out for a night on the town in New York City, where would you go?

Likes- You don’t wanna know—but probably somewhere in Hell’s Kitchen.

Where are your favorite spots to send family and friends when they visit?

Likes- The Hotel Edison Diner, anything on Restaurant Row (46th Street).

What is your favorite meal to enjoy in NYC?

Likes- I am a big fan of Springbone Kitchens’ Grandma’s Chicken and Rice. Amazing. Also, Bareburger

New York City Pride stands as a monumental beacon of hope, celebration, and protest in the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights Its history is a vibrant tapestry woven from the struggles and triumphs of the LGBTQ+ community, beginning with the Stonewall Riots in 1969 These riots, a response to police raids on the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in Greenwich Village, marked a pivotal moment in the queer liberation movement In commemoration, the first Pride march was held in 1970, a bold step that not only honored the courage of those at Stonewall but also solidified the importance of visibility and community
