Providing professional live theatre to Huntsville and its surrounding areas, the Broadway Theatre League (BTL) offers audiences the chance to enjoy various theatre productions. Housed at the Mark C. Smith Concert Hall at the Von Braun Center, the Broadway Theatre League gives people a chance to experience a variety of acclaimed productions.
Starting on November 28th to December 3rd, audiences will get the chance to experience Beetlejuice The Musical. The musical comedy is based on the 1988 Tim Burton movie of the same name. The original story has been reimagined and instead tells the story of the strange teenager, Lydia Deetz. Lydia is dealing with the death of her mother and living with her negligent father when, all of a sudden, she’s confronted with a recently deceased couple and an eccentric demon. Even if you’ve never seen the original movie, the musical has won multiple awards for its intricate set and costume design. It’ll be a show you will want to attend.
Suppose you’re not a fan of the more upbeat nature of musicals. In that case, you may be more interested in watching Aaron Sorkin’s (writer of The West Wing and The Social Network) stage adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. The book was released in 1960; it is an acclaimed story, widely read by middle and high school students nationwide. Chances are you’ve read the story. If not, you’ll still appreciate the heart wrenching exploration into human morality. The play will have five shows from February 16th to February 18th.
Lastly, the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar occurs from March 15th to March 17th. The musical tells the story of the series of events that take place during the last few weeks of Jesus Christ’s life through Judas’s eyes. The show is a fascinating interpretation of Jesus and the people close to him. The show is one of the longest-running musicals in the world, and it’s been loved by audiences for decades.
