Welcome to State Theatre New Jersey’s 2026-27 Season! We are thrilled to have you with us for the opening weekend of our Broadway series. Tonight is just the beginning of a magnificent year packed with world-class entertainment, unforgettable music, and inspiring performances.

Our 2026-27 Broadway lineup is truly one for the books! This October, we are proud to welcome home the Tony® Award-winning smash hit Jersey Boys (10/16–10/17) as it celebrates its 20th anniversary—there’s no better place to experience the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons than right here in New Jersey. In November, we gear up for the holiday season with the hilarious, heartwarming national tour of A Christmas Story: The Musical (11/20–11/22). Looking ahead to 2027, prepare to be amazed by the spectacle of Water for Elephants: The Broadway Musical (1/15–1/17/27), the iconic revival of The Wiz (3/6–3/7/27), the uplifting Neil Diamond musical A Beautiful Noise (3/19–3/21/27), and the farm-to-fable comedy hit Shucked (6/4–6/6/27).
