Tickets at Imperial Theatre

The Imperial Theatre was built by the Shuberts in 1923 and is still owned today by the same organization. It was designed by Herbert J. Krapp to house musical comedies and, with its large capacity of 1,650 seats, had been the pride of the Shuberts for decades. Over the last 80-plus years it has been home to many Broadway legends such as the original production of Gypsy with Ethel Merman and more recently, Les Miserables.


Recently the Shubert Organization had the theater completely refurbished, and it continues to house many of the most successful shows on Broadway.

Story for Carousel

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s CAROUSEL has returned to Broadway in a production NPR calls, “The best musical of the season, by far.” Three-time Tony Award® winner Jack O’Brien’s “sumptuous revival is a high-water mark of classic American musical theater” (Time Out). Starring Tony nominee Joshua Henry and Tony winner Jessie Mueller, with choreography by New York City Ballet’s Justin Peck, “this ravishing CAROUSEL tingles with the rapture of life in all its contradictions” (The New York Times).

Set in a small New England factory town, CAROUSEL describes the tragic romance between a troubled carnival barker and the woman who gives up evertyhing for him. With a score full of “the theater’s most beautiful and enduring songs” (Variety), brought to life through “choreography that would send Rodgers & Hammerstein themselves into waves of happy shivers" (The Washington Post), this incandescently staged story of passion, loss and redemption is “one of the most moving experiences in all of musical theater” (New York Magazine).

“God is in CAROUSEL,” raves The Chicago Tribune. “It’s the greatest musical ever written.” Don’t miss this ecstatically acclaimed production of one of musical theater’s rarest treasures. “What a gift to have it back on Broadway” (The Hollywood Reporter).
