Get ready, Australia! Two of Broadway's hottest musicals, Maybe Happy Ending and Buena Vista Social Club, are set to grace our stages in 2026, embarking on highly anticipated national tours. The announcement has sent ripples of excitement throughout the Australian theatre scene, particularly after both productions received a staggering 10 Tony Award nominations – including the coveted Best Musical title – at last week's prestigious awards ceremony.
Maybe Happy Ending, a fresh and innovative musical, has captivated audiences with its witty script, catchy tunes, and relatable characters. The story explores themes of love, loss, and the pursuit of happiness in a modern, fast-paced world. Expect a vibrant and energetic production filled with memorable moments and a whole lot of heart.

It's a journey back in time to the vibrant heart of Havana, brought to life on stage.
