Musical lovers rejoice. Organizers of the Fifth Third Bank Broadway series in Atlanta announced the lineup for its 40th anniversary season this week and the bill includes some of the country’s top musicals.
The 2020-2021 season includes the premieres of Disney’s “Frozen,” “Mean Girls,” “To Kill a Mockingbird,” “Ain’t Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations” and “Tootsie.”
Rounding out the seven-show season are the returns of hit Broadway shows “Jesus Christ Superstar" and “Fiddler on the Roof.”
Additionally, “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical,” “Beautiful: The Carol King Musical” and “Riverdance” will play the Fox Theatre and are available as season add-ons.
“We are delighted to be celebrating Broadway in Atlanta’s 40th anniversary season,” said Russ Belin, southeast vice president of Broadway Across America. “Since 1981, nearly 7 million guests have enjoyed more than 3,000 Broadway in Atlanta performances. We look forward to celebrating our 2020-2021 season with the city of Atlanta and continuing to bring the best of Broadway for many years to come.”
New subscriptions will be available for purchase in May, with prices starting at $294 for all seven shows. Subscriber prices will vary depending on the show time, day of the week and seating location.
Tickets to individual shows in the 2020-2021 lineup are not available for purchase at this time. Single-show tickets typically go on sale to the general public 8-12 weeks prior to opening night.
