Celebs on stage

Seeing Billy Porter and Wayne Brady share a stage is less about the technical precision of a revival and more about the sheer, high-fashion energy they bring to a story about being unapologetically yourself. It’s a production where the backstage chemistry is palpable, trading typical musical theater tropes for a night that feels like a front-row seat to a masterclass in personality and comedic timing.

Critics Choice nominee Patrick Ball is officially trading his hospital scrubs from The Pitt for a massive Broadway debut alongside the always-cool Alden Ehrenreich (our favorite Han Solo!). This dark comedy is essentially a psychological train wreck where a blind date goes so off the rails that it pulls in everyone—including Golden Globe nominee Constance Wu and The Handmaid’s Tale’s Madeline Brewer—for the messiest, most hilarious night of theater you'll see all season.

You likely know Matthew Morrison from the screen, but watching him lead this tribute to Bobby Darin feels like catching a glimpse into the old-school supper clubs that used to define the city’s nightlife. He’s joined by Dr. Santos from The Pitt—the powerhouse Bonnie Milligan—creating a rare vocal pairing that feels less like a rehearsed concert and more like two friends showing off at a late-night jazz lounge.

The wizarding world’s favorite "bad boy" Tom Felton has officially returned to his roots, and seeing Draco Malfoy grown up and on stage is the nostalgia trip we all deserved. Between the mind-blowing magic and Tom’s incredible stage presence, it’s the perfect excuse to grab the girls and finally see the show everyone’s been obsessed with for years.

Oscar nominee Rose Byrne is basically the reigning queen of chaotic comedy (Bridesmaids, anyone?), and seeing her cut loose on stage alongside Tony-winning powerhouse Kelli O’Hara from The Gilded Age is the high-society fever dream we all needed. This Noël Coward revival turns into a total champagne-fueled disaster when these two besties realize they’ve both slept with the same suave Frenchman—who happens to be played by Mark Consuelos (yes, Kelly Ripa’s husband!) making his big Broadway debut.

Tony winner and our favorite former wizard Daniel Radcliffe is literally hanging out in the aisles, making this the most intimate heart-to-heart you’ll ever have on Broadway. It’s a total tear-jerker that somehow leaves you feeling amazing, especially since Daniel personally recruits the audience to help him list everything—from ice cream to rollercoasters—that makes life worth living.

You have to get to Studio 54 because Stephanie Hsu (our Everything Everywhere Oscar nominee!) and the legendary Juliette Lewis are basically tearing the roof off in this leather-soaked fever dream. It is pure chaos in the best way, especially with SNL icon Rachel Dratch and Golden Globe winner Michaela Jaé Rodriguez joining Luke Evans to prove that some cult classics are just too good to stay in the shadows.

Emmy winners Jon Bernthal and Ebon Moss-Bachrach have reunited to bring some serious "Cousin" grit to this heart-pounding bank heist gone wrong. It’s an absolute adrenaline rush watching these two trade their chef whites for a high-stakes robbery, and their electric chemistry makes it the most charismatic, "don't-breathe" night of theater you'll see all season.

Emmy and Golden Globe winner Ayo Edebiri is officially stepping out of the kitchen and onto the Broadway stage for a massive debut alongside the legendary Don Cheadle. Between Ayo's The Bear star power and Don's iconic prestige—he’s an Oscar nominee, Tony winner, and has a staggering 11 Emmy nominations—this Pulitzer-winning drama is the ultimate masterclass in family secrets.

Imagine seeing Adrien Brody—the youngest guy to ever snag a Best Actor Oscar for The Pianist—making his massive Broadway debut in a role this intense. He’s completely magnetic as a death row inmate playing a high-stakes psychological game, and honestly, catching a performer of his caliber in such a gritty, "don't-breathe" kind of thriller is the theater memory you’ll be bragging about for years.

Megan Thee Stallion is a three-time Grammy winner and a literal force of nature who is about to take over the role of Harold Zidler for a strictly limited eight-week run starting March 24. It’s a performance that brings a whole new "Hot Girl" energy to the Al Hirschfeld, turning the club’s iconic bohemian spectacle into a high-octane event that feels more like a historic party than just another night at the theater.

Four-time Emmy winner and Tony nominee Jim Parsons—our favorite "insider" for everything from The Big Bang Theory to high-stakes Broadway revivals—takes a hilariously campy turn as the social-climbing Ruth DeWitt Bukater. This Olivier Award-winning musical parody reimagines the Titanic blockbuster through the zany lens of Céline Dion, using her greatest hits to turn a historical tragedy into a high-energy, martini-soaked voyage through 90s nostalgia.

Taraji P. Henson, an Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner who we’ve loved for years in everything from Empire to Hidden Figures, finally makes her Broadway debut as the open-hearted Bertha Holly. This revival of the August Wilson masterpiece—directed by the legendary Debbie Allen—transforms the Barrymore Theatre into a 1911 boarding house where a group of travelers find a shared, spiritual refuge while navigating the massive shifts of the Great Migration.

Darren Criss, a two-time Tony winner who first stole our hearts on Glee before taking home an Emmy for his chilling turn in Versace, leads this original production as a vintage "HelperBot" searching for his place in a high-tech future. This 2025 Best Musical winner is an intimate, visually stunning secret of a show that follows two obsolete robots in Seoul who discover that the one thing they weren't programmed for—genuine human connection—is the only thing worth holding onto.
