HAMILTON, ANASTASIA & More Announced for 2021-2022 Broadway Season in Little Rock

Celebrity Attractions has announced an extraordinary lineup of five national Broadway tours coming in the Celebrity Attractions' 2021-2022 Broadway Season to Robinson Performance Hall. Kicking off the season is the London West End sell-out show, THE SIMON & GARFUNKEL STORY and is followed by the romantic new musical, ANASTASIA, in November. The family classic, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF will whisk those winter blues away in January. The Arkansas debut of HAMILTON will take the stage for two weeks in February and HAIRSPRAY will have you dancing in the aisles in their season finale in March.

"Broadway-both in New York and on the road--came to a halt during the pandemic. We continued to work diligently during the shut-down, moving around pieces of the big puzzle that is touring Broadway, striving to provide a fantastic line-up of shows once it was safe to do so," explains Kristin Dotson, CEO of Celebrity Attractions. "Finally, we see the light at the end of the tunnel. For Celebrity Attractions, that light is a spotlight, shining brightly on the Robinson Performance Hall stage this fall! Broadway fans will once again be able to enjoy the laughter, love, and life-changing experience that only live performances provide. Now, more than ever, we need that shared experience - and there is no better way than by subscribing to the 2021-2022 Broadway Season!"
