September 13 - October 11, 2025
Based on the life of Carole King, one of the most successful songwriters in history with more than 75 million records sold, this nostalgic and captivating musical, nominated for seven Tony Awards (including Best Musical), ran on Broadway for nearly seven years (and over 2,400 performances) to international acclaim. Featuring some of King’s classic songs (“So Far Away”, “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow”, “You’ve Got a Friend”) along with hits she created made famous by others (“Up on the Roof”, “One Fine Day”, “Take Good Care of My Baby”), the story depicts King’s journey from young songwriter to a solo artist, highlighting her creative evolution and the challenges she faced.
“It’s about the music…that reaches us on a level we cannot verbalize. It’s a heart and gut thing where we are at the center of our own selves. And at the center of all that music is Ms. King.” (NY THEATRE GUIDE)
