2013-2014 Broadway Season At a Glance
CATS (October 8-13, 2013 NC Theatre Production): Since CATS first opened on the West End stage in 1981, it has become one of the world?s best-known and best-loved musicals. With a plot based on T.S. Eliot?s Old Possum?s Book of Practical Cats and award-winning music composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber, CATS has since been presented in over 20 countries. A timeless musical classic, NC Theatre is thrilled to be producing this show for the first time in their history.
Elf, The Musical (November 12-17, 2013, National Tour): Based on the hit holiday movie, ELF is the hilarious tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who mistakenly crawls into Santa?s bag of gifts and is transported back to the North Pole. Unaware that he is actually human, Buddy?s enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa?s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his father, discover his true identity, and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern day Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner ELF.
We Will Rock You (December 3-8, 2013, National Tour): From London?s West End, the worldwide smash hit musical by Queen and Ben Elton comes to Raleigh for a limited engagement! We Will Rock You features the greatest hits of the legendary British rock group, Queen.
