Broadway Return: NYC Theater Lights Up Again | Blog | The Saez + Fromm Team - Design Refresh

Broadway theater marquees glow at night in Times Square, advertising Kinky Boots, An American in Paris, and Matilda.

It’s the return of Broadway!

The heart of both tourists and natives alike in Manhattan are the beloved shows that light up Broadway. After a year and a half hiatus, COVID shut down New York City’s vivacious theater district. But as we all know, New York will always come back, and it will always come back louder!

The first show to return was Waitressstarring Sara Bareillas, which opened on September 2^nd. The show also honored the former cast member, Nick Cordero, the late husband of Amanda Kloots.

Shows on deck are the smash-hit Hamilton, fan-favorite Lion King and Broadway-staples such as Wicked and Chicago. All shows are being played for fully vaccinated crowds and masks are required to attend.
