Come From Away to play pre-Broadway engagement in Toronto, among others
Mirvish has announced its lineup of seven mainstage shows, three off-Mirvish shows, and a handful of bonus productions not included in their season subscription service. Notable amongst this new lineup is Come From Away, a Broadway-bound musical written by Canadians Irene Sankoff and David Hein about a small Newfoundland town hosting stranded passengers in the post-9/11 confusion, and Beautiful — the Carole King Musical, for which Jessie Mueller won the Best Leading Actress Tony Award in 2014. We also have some North American premieres, such as Baz Luhrman’s Strictly Ballroom The Musical and Terry Johnson and Don Black’s Mrs. Henderson Presents. Rounding out the list is West End’s The Bodyguard, the Tony-Award winning play The Audience, and a cooking-inspired circus show, Cuisine & Confessions.
Bonus shows include The Book of Mormon and the Roundabout Theatre Company’s production of Cabaret. For more information on these shows and Mirvish’s upcoming season, read more under the cut!
