Superstars come and go, but Cher is eternal! For six decades, she has dominated pop culture, pushing boundaries and breaking down barriers - letting nothing and no one stand in her way. Directed by Gerry McIntyre (Ogunquit's Jersey Boys and Priscilla Queen of the Desert), the Tony Award-winning The Cher Show is packed with so much story and hit music it takes three women to tell her tale: the enigmatic newcomer, the glamorous pop star, and the cinematic icon. 35 smash hit songs, two rock-star husbands, and those epic Bob Mackie gowns, all in one fabulous Broadway musical that will turn back time and keep you dancing in your seat.

Written by Tony Award nominee Rick Elice (Broadway's Jersey Boys, Peter and the Starcatcher), The Cher Show will feature choreography by Jane Lanier (LA's The Wild Party), music direction by Kristin Stowell (Ogunquit Playhouse's Mystic Pizza), set design by Emmy Award winner Andy Walmsley (Broadway's Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story), projection design by John Narun (Broadway's Torch Song), sound design by Kevin Heard (Ogunquit Playhouse's Kinky Boots, Broadway's The Minutes), and the Tony Award-winning iconic Cher costumes originally designed by Bob Mackie. Rebecca McBee is the Production Stage Manager, with Brian Robillard as the Assistant Stage Manager. Casting is by Binder Casting; Chad Eric Murnane, CSA.
