We know that Broadway may not be the first thing on everyone's mind while summer is still in full swing.
But once schools reopen and fall schedules begin filling in, group reservations can move very quickly.
Planning now gives you the greatest flexibility in choosing your show, performance date, seating, and workshop experience.
If your school, troop, Council, family group, homeschool organization, college, or community organization is considering Broadway anytime this fall, winter, spring, or early summer, we encourage you to reach out now.
We're already talking with many of our longtime partners about upcoming dates—and we'd love to hear from you as well.

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new way for Girl Scouts who may not have a group of 20 or more to participate in one of our award-winning StudentsLive® Broadway workshops and performance experiences.
While we continue to coordinate private, exclusive workshops for schools and troops that meet our minimum of 20 participants, three of our Girl Scout Council partners are now opening their exclusive StudentsLive Wicked experiences to individual Girl Scouts and smaller groups from around the country.
This means that a Girl Scout does not have to be part of a large troop or Council group to participate: As long as a Girl Scout or Scouts are accompanied by an adult, families can register for a minimum of two tickets through the participating Council as part of this special "build-a-group" experience.

George Washington's going home! Christopher Jackson, who was Tony-nominated for creating the role of George Washington in the Tony-winning musical Hamilton, will return to that role in the Broadway hit this fall. The Grammy and Emmy-winning actor returns for Hamilton's 10th year on Broadway. The production just celebrated its anniversary with the return of fellow original cast member Leslie Odom, Jr. in the role of Aaron Burr. Jackson has received boundless celebration and praise for his role in the show—particularly his moving performance of "History Has Its Eyes on You" (watch Hamilton on Disney+ to see what we mean). As Hamilton producer Jeffrey Seller said upon the news of Jackson's return: “Lin-Manuel wrote George Washington with Chris’ gorgeous voice and musicality in his head...How lucky are we that we get to experience his George Washington one last time?”
Jackson will return to Hamilton at the Richard Rodgers Theatre September 8, 2026–January 3, 2027.

Bowen Yang , the SNL favorite and Wicked film alum will be the next title star in Broadway's Oh, Mary!, with a 12-week engagement to begin September 15 at the Lyceum Theatre, per a posting on the show's official Instagram.
“My friendship with Cole has brought me many places over the years: late-night pizzerias, cross-borough social-distance walks, a tough production ofLes Misérables sung in Dutch,” says Yang in a statement. “But being part of their deranged and profound masterpiece, Oh, Mary!, is my favorite one by far. I will spend the rest of my life thanking them for the best Broadway debut a cis gay guy with limited singing ability could ask for.”

Paddington The Musical
Join us for a rather wonderful adventure.
The most award-winning new musical in West End history is playing to sold-out audiences and capturing the hearts of all ages. Now, Paddington is packing his suitcase and preparing for his next adventure: Broadway.
In Paddington The Musical, a small, lost bear from Peru arrives in London in search of a place to call home. A chance encounter with the Browns leads him into an unexpected world of adventure, where kindness has the power to change lives and strangers can become family.
But London isn’t all afternoon tea and friendly faces and even the seemingly happiest of families can have cracks beneath the surface. So, when a mysterious and vengeful villain sets her sights on Paddington, the Browns embark on a thrilling rescue mission, realizing they need this special bear as much as he needs them.
Filled with laughter, wonder, spectacular songs, dazzling choreography, and a generous helping of marmalade, Paddington The Musical is based on Michael Bond’s beloved characters, with a story inspired by the award-winning films. It features original music and lyrics by Tom Fletcher, a book by Jessica Swale, and direction by Luke Sheppard.
Paddington The Musical begins performances at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre on March 30th, 2027 and is on sale through March 26th, 2028.
