The delayed 40th season of Broadway in Atlanta is set to relaunch in late summer with a marquee title.
“Hamilton,” which had been set to return to Atlanta last March, will arrive at the Fox Theatre in late August for a monthlong run.
Last spring, as the spread of COVID-19 caused theater producers nationwide to scramble to reschedule touring shows – a complex dance of dates and locations – all of Atlanta’s Broadway season was scuttled.
But, with the exception of the Aaron Sorkin drama, “To Kill a Mockingbird” - which was canceled last year and the season was converted to six shows - the entire slate of productions originally planned for the 2020-21 season will now play in 2021-22.
Patrons who kept their tickets for “Hamilton” or “Blue Man Group” – the only shows that had single tickets on sale prior to their postponements – can use them for the new dates.
Season ticket packages are available at broadwayinatlanta.com; single tickets for each production will be available about eight to 12 weeks before the show, as per usual.
