Previously announced shows include Disney’s The Lion King, Dear Evan Hansen, Wicked, and straight from Broadway, MJ, the brand new 4-time Tony Award-winning musical that offers a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit of Michael Jackson.

Just two weeks away, the FREE BROADWAY IN CHICAGO SUMMER CONCERT, sponsored by ABC 7 Chicago, will be hosted by Val Warner and Hosea Sanders on Monday, August 15, 2022, at 6:15 pm at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park (201 E Randolph St).

Enthusiastic theater fans can look forward to seeing performances from our spectacular lineup of upcoming shows. Mark your calendars – this is a night you do not want to miss,” said Eileen LaCario, Vice President of Broadway In Chicago.
