Some Of Broadway's Biggest Shows Are Headed To Denver In 2019-2020
DENVER (CBS4) - The Denver Center for the Performing Arts has released its traveling Broadway schedule for the 2019-2020 season. From blockbusters like "Hamilton" to "Mean Girls" and "The SpongeBob Musical," there's a show for everyone!
"It's one of our goals to always show to our audiences here in Denver really where the stories are, what's being told in New York, and I think we have that represented on stage next season," said John Ekeberg, Executive Director - Broadway at the DCPA.
The season kicks off with the revival of Miss Saigon. Theatergoers can have a Parrothead holiday with Jimmy Buffet's Escape to Margaritaville. "The Donna Summer Musical" will have folks dancing in the aisles. The lineup also features "The SpongeBob Musical," "Mean Girls," "My Fair Lady," and "The Band's Visit."
Among the added attractions for the 2019-2020 season are some of Broadways biggest hits including "The Book of Mormon" and "Hamilton," both of which will be returning to the Buell Theatre. Disney's "The Lion King" will also be at the Buell for a month.
"You know they are such huge audience favorites, and it's always a pleasure to bring them back to Denver audiences," Ekeberg told CBS4.
