BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Two blockbuster movies turned musicals, two fan favorites from the past, and the musical moves of an entertainment icon make up part of a 'thriller' of a lineup coming to Buffalo for the Five Star Bank 2023-24 Broadway season at Shea's Performing Arts Center.
The new musical Mrs. Doubtfire, based on the beloved 1993 film starring Robin Williams, leads off another highly anticipated season in September. The show will continue what has become a tradition at Shea's, launching its national tour right here in Buffalo.
Ten-time Tony Award winner Moulin Rouge! will bring the splendor of France to the Queen City for a two-week run starting Oct. 24. The jukebox musical brings many modern hits to life around a story of romance, glitz, and grandeur.
Another timeless story set in France, Les Miserables, will return to the Shea's stage in March, followed in April by the return of another Buffalo fan favorite, Mamma Mia! - a high-energy story of love and friendship told through the hit songs of ABBA.
The new season wraps up in June with the music and moves of Michael Jackson in MJ The Musical. The story centers around the making of the King of Pop's 1992 Dangerous World Tour.
