Set on the vibrant island of Haiti, Once on This Island tells the sweeping story of Ti Moune, a fearless peasant girl who rescues and falls in love with a young man from the wealthy side of the island. Guided and challenged by the island gods of Love, Earth, Water, and Death, Ti Moune’s journey explores themes of love, sacrifice, and destiny. With an energetic, rhythmic score and colorful storytelling, this Tony Award–winning musical reminds us of the power of hope and the resilience of the human spirit. Bursting with music and movement, it’s a celebration of community and connection that will uplift and inspire.

In this side-splitting Broadway hit, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are struggling playwrights trying to compete with William Shakespeare, the rock star of the Renaissance. Desperate for success, they create the world’s first musical—complete with dancing eggs, breakfast puns, and Shakespearean sass. Overflowing with clever humor, dazzling numbers, and outrageous nods to beloved musicals, Something Rotten! is a laugh-out-loud celebration of creativity and the chaos of chasing your dreams.
