CHICAGO has it all—fame, fortune and all that jazz—brought to you through showstopping songs and astonishing dance performances.
The longest-running American musical in Broadway history, CHICAGO has dazzled audiences with more than 10,000 performances since its debut in 1996.
The musical has garnered several honors over the past 27 years, including:

2. Annie | January 14-19, 2025
“The sun’ll come out tomorrow,” …especially when Annie is coming to Birmingham! Since its Broadway debut in 1977, Little Orphan Annie has taught generations of theatergoers that determination can get you through the toughest of times—and sometimes, that determination comes in a small package!
Annie is your opportunity to see a timeless celebration of family, optimism and the American spirit!
3. SIX | February 11-16, 2025
A recent addition to the Broadway lineup, SIX is a musical retelling of the lives of King Henry VIII’s six wives.
In SIX, Tudor Queens-turned Pop Icons Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr take the microphone to remix five hundred years of historical heartbreak into a celebration of 21st-century girl power.
A global sensation, SIX won 23 awards in the 2021-22 Broadway season—including the Tony Award® for Best Original Score (Music and Lyrics) and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical.
Plus, the SIX: LIVE ON OPENING NIGHT album debuted at Number 1 on the Billboard cast album charts, with more than 6 million streams in its first month.
4. Les Misérables | March 25-30, 2025
Can you hear the people sing? Since its premiere in 1980, LES MISÉRABLES has been lauded as one of the best musical productions of all time.
Its magnificent score will bring both tears to your eyes and laughter to your lips with songs like, “I Dreamed A Dream,” “Master Of The House” and “Do You Hear The People Sing.”
Set in 19th-century France, LES MISÉRABLES follows peasant-turned-convict Jean Valjean and his journey to redemption. Along the way, Valjean and other captivating characters are swept into the ill-fated Paris Uprising of 1832.
5. Beetlejuice | May 6-11, 2025
Based on Tim Burton’s beloved 1988 hit, BEETLEJUICE tells the story of strange and unusual teenager Lydia Deetz and her encounters with the Maitlands—a recently deceased couple—and, of course, Beetlejuice—a devious demon with a thing for stripes.
With a jaw-dropping set and a score that’s out of this Netherworld, BEETLEJUICE is fun for the whole family.
6. TINA — The Tina Turner Musical | June 24-29, 2025
An uplifting comeback story like no other, TINA — The Tina Turner Musical follows the “Queen of Rock n’ Roll” as she breaks barriers and finds her one-of-a-kind voice.
One of the world’s best-selling artists of all time, Tina Turner won 12 Grammy Awards and sold more concert tickets than any other solo performer in music history. TINA is set to the soundtrack of her most beloved hits and will inspire audiences with its tale of humble beginnings to rock n’ roll stardom.
