Ticket information

The museum will certainly be very exciting because, in addition to conventional exhibitions, there will be interactive exhibits and elaborate video projections. In the Map Room, you’ll be able to see how Broadway theaters have changed over time and how they once existed in other parts of the city. I’m sure it will be very surprising to learn about all of the interesting details!
One part I’m particularly excited about is the Behind-The-Scenes exhibit, which will detail just how a Broadway show is created. And last but not least, there’s a tribute of sorts created by Broadway designers and contemporary artists honoring the major musicals that have been key to Broadway’s success and importance.
