The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust has announced a lineup of Broadway shows coming to the Benedum Center for the 2025-2026 season, including popular productions like "Wicked" and new offerings such as "Shucked." The 11-show series, presented in partnership with Broadway Across America, features a mix of musicals designed to entertain a diverse audience. "Wicked" is slated to grab the spotlight from January 14 to February 15, riding high on the tidal wave of success from its recent film adaptation that raked in $747 million globally, as reported by TribLIVE.
In a statement detailed by WTAE, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust unveiled the schedule, beginning September 9 with "The Neil Diamond Musical: A Beautiful Noise" and wrapping up on May 31 with "The Great Gatsby." Season options such as "SIX The Musical," "Les Misérables," and "Chicago" will also be available. Tickets for the full season are already on sale, while those for individual shows will be released later.
CBS News Pittsburgh reported that Kendra Whitlock Ingram, President and CEO of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, expressed pride in presenting "another remarkable lineup of touring Broadway productions." The report acknowledged the PNC Foundation's support in making the season possible. With this curated selection, the organization aims to bring beloved shows and fresh theatrical experiences to Pittsburgh audiences.
