Broadway is one of the most visited and revered places on the face of the earth, and its shows and productions seem to catch on so fiercely that they wind up out on tour for years, or with permanent homes in countries overseas. The sheer excitement and grandeur of the Broadway experience is something that everybody should make themselves privy to at least once in their lifetime, and there really is no such thing as a bad show when you factor in the atmosphere and the tradition which have made these venues and shows such a timeless and beloved custom in America.

If you are a musical kind of person, or even if you don’t think you are, the following are a few of the most popular and well-received productions on Broadway today: there is Lion King the Musical, Wicked, Billy Elliot, Chicago, In the Heights, Mama Mia!, Mary Poppins, Shrek the Musical, The Phantom of the Opera, West Side Story, and South Pacific, just to name a few. Lion King the Musical and Wicked are currently slated as the most in-demand productions of this season, and the more prominent classics such as South Pacific and Chicago are always a special treat.

For those who would rather focus on the art of screen play acting and basic movement of storyline, the plays on Broadway are second to none in the world. The most awaited and limited play this year is the much-acclaimed A Steady Rain starring Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig, which is reportedly running very few performances. Some of the other classics being performed this season include Burn the Floor, God of Carnage, The 39 Steps, and Hamlet starring Jude Law.
