The exclusive TodayTix Originals concert series kicks off May 25 at 8:30 p.m. ET with a one-night-only performance by “Hamilton” cast member and star of Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story” Ariana DeBose. The show will be followed by performances on June 8 and 9 by Broadway star Shoshana Bean.
TodayTix Originals executive producer Tony Marion said in a statement, “If two New York institutions are synonymous with the city itself, it’s Tavern on the Green and Broadway. Simply put, Tavern is the place perfect for reuniting this incredible line-up of New York-based mega talent with the fans who adore them.For those of us who’ve spent the last 14 months yearning for live performances and a reason to dress , it will be the ultimate tonic.
Tavern on the Green’s Owner, Jim Caiola added: “When I was young and dreaming of New York, what I imagined were artists, singers, dancers and actors, all coming together to create of culture. And, years later, when I first arrived at Tavern on the Green, I found them all gathered here. In that spirit, we welcome TodayTix Originals and their Broadway talent with open arms. It is our great privilege to provide a magnificent home for these artists, as we aim to continue and expand the Tavern’s exceptional legacy as a cultural haven as Broadway prepares to return bigger and better than ever.”
Tavern on the Green has long been linked to Broadway, with plays and musicals often celebrating their opening nights at the restaurant. In 1978, New York City threw a star-studded Tavern party to launch its now legendary “I ❤ NY” ad campaign.
Tickets will be sold in groups of two and four and will require each group to contain only members of the same group.
