Illinoise

Transferring from two successful sold-out runs, Illinoise Broadway is an exceptional musical experience that shouldn't be missed. Based on the iconic Sufjan Stevens album, the show springs to life on the stage under the expert direction and choreography of Tony Award® winner Justin Peck. The deeply moving narrative is crafted by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury, who presents an original story brimming with emotion and introspection. With live music, stunning choreography, and a compelling narrative, Illinoise Broadway creates an unforgettable, sensorial journey.

The Story

Illinoise tells the poignant tale of friends who congregate around a campfire, sharing stories of childhood, first love, grief, and the journey to adulthood. It is an exploration of the tumultuous phase between childhood and adulthood, where emotions run high and life-altering decisions are made. This narrative is beautifully presented through a blend of live music, dance, and an original script. Will these friends navigate their turmoil and come out stronger? Join the journey to find out.
