42ND STREET TICKETS
42nd Street is the second longest running American musical in
Broadway history. The longest running American show is the
legendary A Chorus Line. Both shows have backstage stories,
both shows won The Tony Award for Best Musical, and both have
the same designers; Robin Wagner (scenic design), Theoni V.
Aldredge (costumes) and Tharon Musser (lighting design). But
here the similarities end. A Chorus Line, which opened in 1975,
has a cast of 27 and is played on a simple set in basic
costumes. In 1980, 42nd Street ushered in the new age of
theatrical spectacle with a cast of 54, 750 costumes and dozens
of stage effects. The making of 42nd Street, and its unforgettable
opening at the Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway on August
25, 1980, created one of the most memorable theatrical events
of the Twentieth Century.
From the opening of the pre-Broadway engagement at the
Kennedy Center Opera House, in July of 1980, there has hardly
been a week when 42nd Street hasn't been playing somewhere
in the world.
