Broadway will remain closed through at least May 30 2021, the Broadway League announced today. The four-month extension beyond the most recent January date will force producers hoping for a Spring opening to come up with new plans.

The Broadway League announced the continued suspension of all ticket sales for Broadway performances through May 30, 2021. Dates for each returning and new Broadway show will be announced as individual productions determine the performance schedules for their respective shows. The May 30 date extends the current shutdown from the previously targeted January 2021.

“With nearly 97,000 workers who rely on Broadway for their livelihood and an annual economic impact of $14.8 billion to the city, our membership is committed to re-opening as soon as conditions permit us to do so. We are working tirelessly with multiple partners on sustaining the industry once we raise our curtains again,” said Charlotte St. Martin, President of the Broadway League.

Theatregoers holding tickets for dates through May 30, 2021 should contact their point of purchase for details about exchanges and refunds.
