Tickets Make Great Christmas Gifts!

December 19, 2019

Broadway in Lafayette has three amazing shows left you won't want to miss! In the months of February, March, and April your family can be swept away with live performances of Finding Neverland, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, and Fiddler on the Roof. 


February 9th at 3 pm - Finding Neverland

The winner of Broadway.com’s Audience Choice Award for Best Musical, this breathtaking smash “captures the kid-at-heart,” says TIME Magazine. Vogue cheers, “It’s a must-see you’ll remember for years to come!” Diane Paulus’ Finding Neverland with direction recreated by Tour Director Mia Walker, is based on the critically acclaimed Academy Award® winning film, FINDING NEVERLAND, which tells the incredible story behind one of the world’s most beloved characters: Peter Pan. Playwright J.M. Barrie struggles to find inspiration until he meets four young brothers and their beautiful, widowed mother. Spellbound by the boys’ enchanting make-believe adventures, he sets out to write a play that will astound London theatergoers. With a little bit of pixie dust and a lot of faith, Barrie takes this monumental leap, leaving his old world behind for Neverland, where nothing is impossible and the wonder of childhood lasts forever. The magic of Barrie’s classic tale springs spectacularly to life in this heartwarming theatrical event. FINDING NEVERLAND is “far and away the best musical of the year!” (NPR).
