Check out a full list of upcoming Broadway shows.

A Beautiful Noise began Broadway previews on Wednesday, November 2, 2022 and opened on Sunday, December 4 making international headlines as Diamond himself stood in his box seat and led the entire audience in a rousing rendition of “Sweet Caroline,” the last time he has publicly performed that iconic song. Check out what the critcis had to say.

A Beautiful Noise includes a score of Diamond's most beloved songs, a book which four-time Academy Award®-nominee Anthony McCarten distilled from hundreds of hours of conversations between himself and the legendary singer-songwriter, direction by Tony Award winner Michael Mayer, and choreography by Olivier Award® winner and four-time Tony Award nominee Steven Hoggett.

A Beautiful Noise will launch a North American tour this fall from Providence, Rhode Island.

Appropriate opened to unanimous rave reviews at The Hayes Theater on December 18, 2023 and sold  out its initial run before transferring to the Belasco Theater. Written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins  and directed by Lila Neugebaue, it stars Sarah Paulson, Corey Stoll, Michael Esper, Natalie Gold, Ella Beatty, Graham Campbell, Alyssa Emily Marvin, Lincoln Cohen, and Everett Sobers. 

It’s summer, the cicadas are singing, and the Lafayette family has returned to their late patriarch’s  Arkansas home to deal with the remains of his estate. Toni (Paulson), the eldest daughter, hopes they’ll  spend the weekend remembering and reconnecting over their beloved father. Bo (Stoll), her brother,  wants to recoup some of the funds he spent caring for Dad at the end of his life. But things take a turn  when their estranged brother, Franz (Esper), appears late one night, and mysterious objects are  discovered among the clutter. Suddenly, long-hidden secrets and buried resentments can’t be contained,  and the family is forced to face the ghosts of their past. 

Appropriate was nominated for eight Tony Awards and won in three categories, including Best Revival of a Play.

Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog, starring Academy Award nominee and Tony Award nominee Rachel McAdams, and directed by Tony Award nominee Anne Kauffman, Mary Jane opened on April 23, 2024.

Captivating, affecting and compassionate, it’s the story of a single mother in an impossible family situation. Faced with seemingly insurmountable odds, Mary Jane relies on unflagging optimism and humor, along with the wisdom of the women around her who have become a makeshift family, to take on each new day. But will inner strength and newfound friendships be enough to see her through?

Mary Jane received four Tony Award nominations, including Best Play.
