June 2026 New York Theater Openings: Pride and Politics, Festivals and Football (ie Soccer)
Below is a calendar of theater opening* in June. Sting is bringing his Broadway musical, much changed, to the Metropolitan Opera, and this time starring in it. Two dystopian dramas about an authoritarian America are returning intact; no need to update. Billy Porter is leading an all-Black cast of “La Cage Aux Folles,” one of a pride of plays and festivals marking Gay Pride Month.There is a new ASL play, a new hippie musical, and an encore presentation of a rewrite of an Arthur Miller play from a woman’s perspective.

Celebrities: Saviors or S(t)inkers of Broadway? Stageworthy News of the Week
The first show of the new Broadway season revolves around a rotating cast of celebrities roasting a rotating series of celebrity memoirs, provoking anew a perennial question: Is the reliance on celebrities good or bad for Broadway?. Celebrities helped boost ticket sales in the season just ended. But they also jacked up ticket prices, and apparently did little for the quality of the shows, judging by how many of the biggest celebrities (such as Adrien Brody, Don Cheadle, Neal Patrick Harris, Lea Michele, Keanu Reeves, Jean Smart) gave performances that were deemed unworthy of nominations.

And Then The Rodeo Burned Down Off Broadway Review. Xhloe and Natasha on fire.
The distinctive theatrical duo who call themselves Xhloe and Natasha are bringing the rodeo to Hell’s Kitchen, in full clown makeup and as full-on Theater of the Absurd. “And Then The Rodeo Burned Down,” opening today at Ars Nova, is yet another surreal take on an American archetype by Xhloe Rice and Natasha Roland, who have been performing together since they met in high school a decade ago, with increasing acclaim over the last four years in both Edinburgh and New York. The Drama Desk just gave them the Sam Norton Off-Broadway Award for their portrayals at Soho Playhouse last year of two unsettling suburban housewives from the 1950s (in “What If They Ate the Baby”), and a patriotic pair of 1960s boy scouts who grow up into scary soldiers (in “A Letter To Lyndon B.

Celebrity Autobiography Broadway Review. The laugh is on the audience.
“Celebrity Autobiography,” a revue in which performers make fun of celebrities by reading from their cringe-worthy memoirs, made me laugh when I first saw it more than a decade ago at the Triad, a cramped second floor cabaret venue on West 72nd Street. But, presented now at Broadway’s Shubert Theater, it plays differently for me, not least because it reminds me of the recent “All In” and “All Out.” Like those shows, it charges as much as $320 a ticket for a rotating cast of celebrities to read funny passages aloud from a series of published texts.

Theater Blog Roundup: Broadway’s Missing Mojo. AI Do’s and Don’ts for Theater. The Blogging/Newslettering Horde.
Theater punditry explodes between Tony nominations and Tony broadcast, sometimes in startlingly unconventional ways -- not just a historical/statistical approach (More Tony Talk: The Record Holders) or a personal take (Take a beat, Broadway and To Be Nominated: An honor? Really?) by Matt Rodin, the star of “Beau the Musical,” but also Sara Farrington on the shoddy treatment of playwrights by American theaters, naming names, and suggesting what can be done about it – a post that has nothing to do with awards season; she just happened to write it this week.

Heated Rivalry The Unauthorized Musical Parody Review
“Heated Rivalry: The Unauthorized Musical Parody” is of course exploiting the popularity of the TV series about two rival hockey players who over six episodes late last year had hot, sweaty sex then fell in love. And yes, it’s a campy show of raunchy puns and ill-fitting wigs, served with a side of beefcake. But the Ilya and Shane on stage are Broadway veterans Jay Armstrong Johnson and Jimin Moon, and they not only offer spot-on impersonations of the cocky Russian and the amiable Canadian; there are moments when their talent helps turn this lark into satisfying -- even serious -- musical theater.

Memorial Day is both the unofficial start of summer and the federal holiday honoring the 1.1 million Americans who died fighting in U.S. wars; always a jarring dichotomy. But the closing of two Broadway musicals is how I thought up the headline. “Beaches" played its final performance on Sunday, May 24, 2026 after 28 previews and 38 regular performances at the Majestic Theater. Plans are currently underway for a national tour to launch in 2027."Death Becomes Her" will end its Broadway run on Sunday, June 28, 2026 after some 19 months and about 650 performances at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater.

Watch Daniel Radcliffe, Nathan Lane, Joshua Henry et al accept OCC Awards in praise of community
Judging from their acceptance speeches, excerpted below, this season’s award-winning theater artists, AND the plays and musicals in which they’re involved, have been focused on finding and nurturing community. “’The Lost Boys is not about vampires, it's about finding a sense of belonging,” Dane Laffrey said in accepting one of twenty-seven 2026 Outer Critics Circle Awards presented yesterday. “At its heart, ‘The Baker's Wife,’ is really about a group of people who cannot get along with each other..who ultimately form community. I really can't think of a story we need more right now.” Judy Kuhn said in her acceptance speech for her role in the musical, shortly after saying “Being a member of this community” – the theater community – “means so much to me; it’s an uplift.”

Tribeca Festival 2026 preview for theater lovers
The musical “Hadestown” is brought to the screen with the original Broadway cast, followed by a live concert. Broadway songwriters Sara Bareilles and Alicia Keys are each profiled. There's a documentary about a drag theater company putting on a production of “The Rocky Horror Show” in Wyoming. The 25th annual Tribeca Festival, running from June 3 to 14, directly appeals to theater lovers with such fare. But I’ve sorted through the hundreds of festival offerings for my list of 15 below that might be of interest to theater enthusiasts, many less directly -- because of the subject matter or the characters or the performers involved, or because it's the kind of work more commonly seen on stage (e.g.

Animal Wisdom Review
Heather Christian is both everywhere and nowhere to be found in this revival of her “Animal Wisdom,” which she first performed nine years ago, and which she still struggles to define. Her tortured 500-word “composer’s note” is distributed to the audience as we enter a theater elaborately redesigned to suggest Christian’s childhood in Natchez, Mississippi. The show is not a musical, she writes; it is a “requiem within a requiem.” It is not traditional, it is a conjuring of ghosts, and “my life story, as clearly as I can tell it (which is not very clearly at all)” -- although now it’s a life story portrayed not by Heather Christian as herself, but by Kenita R.
