The next Broadway season coming to West Palm Beach has been announced and includes some big marquee titles from the Great White Way.
Running the boards at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts in 2024-2025 will be shows such as “The Cher Show,” “Moulin Rouge! The Musical,” “Mrs. Doubtfire” and the recent revival of “Funny Girl.”
The national tours will also include fan favorites dancing back into the spotlight, including “The Book of Mormon,” “Les Misérables” and “Peter Pan.” Capping off the slate of shows will be the emerging “Mystic Pizza.”
“The 2024-2025 season features eight hit musicals, including several Tony and Grammy award winners, hilarious comedies, whimsical adventures, touching true-life stories and spectacular theatrical celebrations of truth, beauty, freedom and love,” said Diane Quinn, Kravis Center CEO.
In fact, if you added it all up, the Kravis On Broadway season’s shows would have a total of 32 Tony Awards among them.

THE SHOWS
Oct. 29-Nov. 3, 2024 — ‘Mrs.Doubtfire’
The 1993 movie became a Broadway musical in late 2021 (after a pandemic delay) and ran for a little over two months. Like the silver-screen comedy with Robin Williams and Sally Field, this stage version is about a recently divorced actor who dons drag in order to remain close to his family in the guise of a nanny/housekeeper.

Jan. 7-12, 2025 — ‘The Cher Show’
This is truly a Cher and Cher and Cher-alike show. Why? Because it takes three actors to play the star at different stages of her glittery life. Thirty-five tunes from the Oscar-winning actor/pop music goddess’s songbook are in this jukebox musical. “The Cher Show” opened on Broadway in December 2018 and closed in August 2019, the same year the Tonys awarded costumer Bob Mackie and lead Stephanie J. Block.
Jan. 28-Feb. 2, 2025 — ‘Funny Girl’
How this musical shot Barbra Streisand to super-duper-stardom in 1964 (she went on to win an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for the 1968 movie version) is pure showbiz lore. For the national tour, Miami’s Katerina McCrimmon takes on the lead in the show that follows Vaudeville legend Fanny Brice from her humble beginnings on N.Y.C.’s Lower East Side to international fame as a star of stage, screen and radio. Throughout it all, you get the enduring musical score by Jule Styne and Bob Merrill with songs such as “People,” “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star” and “Sadie, Sadie.”
Feb. 12-16, 2025 — ‘Peter Pan’
For this staging, American Indian playwright Larissa FastHorse has sprinkled her own brand of pixie dust on the show about the boy who refuses to grow up, giving a much-needed update on the depiction of indigenous people. But the classic songs remain, with tunes such as “I’m Flying,” “I Won’t Grow Up” and “Never Never Land.”

March 11-16, 2025 — ‘The Book of Mormon’
Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators of the five-time Emmy Award-winning animated series “South Park,” took on religion and won nine Tony Awards in the process. This profane and satiric musical comedy follows two Mormon missionaries and their misadventures while trying to spread their faith to a village in war-torn and impoverished Uganda. One has a crisis of faith, and the other refashions the liturgy with dashes of pop culture to win over converts.

March 25-30, 2025 — ‘Moulin Rouge! The Musical’
Just like the 2001 movie starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, this stage version goes all Belle Epoque-y on hits from the recent Top 40 Charts. Well … recent in context of the turn of the 20th century, which is when this story is set. Songs such as “Lady Marmalade,” “Every Breath You Take,” “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” “What’s Love Got to Do With It” and “Rolling in the Deep” tell the story of a young poet who falls in love with a cabaret star. The show won 10 Tony Awards in 2020.

April 22-27, 2025 — ‘Les Misérables’
Based on the Victor Hugo novel, the show’s story also focuses on themes of redemption for ex-convict Jean Valjean against the backdrop of the 1832 Paris Uprising. This sung-through musical boasts a score by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg, with anthems and ballads that have gone on to become standards including “I Dreamed A Dream,” “On My Own,” “Master of the House,” “Stars,” “Bring Him Home,” “Do You Hear the People Sing?” and “One Day More.” The musical was originally staged in Paris in 1980 before moving on to London’s West End in 1985. In 1987, “Les Misérables” bowed on Broadway (winning eight Tony Awards). In 2012, the movie version hit screens with Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Russell Crowe, Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter and Amanda Seyfried.

May 13-18, 2025 — ‘Mystic Pizza’
Technically this show hasn’t made it to Broadway yet. Julia Roberts fans will remember the 1988 movie that inspired this jukebox musical that uses pop songs from that era to follow the lives of three waitresses living in Mystic, Connecticut. Against the backdrop of the small-town pizzeria, the plot weaves itself into a rom-com with chart-toppers such as “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” “Addicted to Love,” “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now,” “The Power of Love” and “Manic Monday.”
