"Life of Pi"

Jan Martel's favorite novel will be theatrically released this spring, and he continues the new Broadway tradition started by performance "In the Forest"when the animal puppet intercepts the show from under the noses of its human counterparts.

Doc Brown's DeLorean will arrive on Broadway this summer. A hit in London's West End, Back to the Future: The Musical promises sci-fi spectacle and nostalgia for the 1980s.

Official premiere: August 3

On the subject: Alec Baldwin will play in a Broadway play: this is his first role after the murder of a Ukrainian woman on the set

“Bad Cinderella”

There is an unspoken rule in musical theater that Andrew Lloyd Webber must always have a show running on Broadway. And when his long-running musical The Phantom of the Opera closes at the end of this year, his new version of the Cinderella tale, From Rags to the Kingdom, will continue his legacy. The new version of Webber's Cinderella, based on the book by Emeralda Fennell, shows the main character not as an impeccable future princess, but as a gloomy and stubborn egoist.

Performances start: February 17

Official premiere: March 23

"Sweeney Todd"

If you have an ability, visit the performance with Josh Groban as Sweeney Todd. This is one of the darkest works of the late Stephen Sondheim.

Official opening: March 26

"Shucked"

Performances start: March 8

Official opening: April 4

"Fatham"

This is an update of Hamlet, Pulitzer Prize-winning, received unanimous acclaim during its off-Broadway run. The play by James Ijames retains the basic contours of the Shakespearean story. There is a dead father and a two-faced uncle here. But the focus is on the black hero, not the Danish prince.
