About Us
Broadway in Tucson/A Nederlander Presentation is part of the nationally recognized Nederlander Producing Company of America. Broadway in Tucson’s debut season opened in September 2004 with the Arizona premiere of Movin’ Out. And since that first season, Broadway in Tucson has helped bring thousands of Southern Arizonans to downtown Tucson again, with crowd-pleasing events like Chicago, Evita, Riverdance, Avenue Q and Disney’s High School Musical. In 2006, Broadway in Tucson broke box office records with six wildly successful weeks of performances of Disney’s The Lion King. More than 83,000 people attended performances downtown at the Tucson Music Hall, making The Lion King the most well-attended, longest-running production in Tucson theatre history!
