NEW YORK — The maiden voyage of a cruise starring Broadway stars including Tony Award winners Laura Benanti, Kristin Chenoweth, Alan Cumming and Lena Hall will depart next spring.
The Broadway Cruise, sailing round-trip from New York City to Bermuda from March 31 to April 5, 2023, will also feature Tony nominees Joshua Henry, Taylor Louderman and Jeremy Jordan, as well as Broadway favorites Randy Rainbow and Sierra Boggess.
The producers promise “large-scale, intimate shows and cabarets from Broadway’s best talent,” as well as “tips and techniques from some of the best and brightest creative talent working today.”
Tony-nominated scenic designer David Korins will discuss his creative process in designing sets for the stage and Tony-nominated choreographer Kelly Devine will discuss the art of dance. Chris Jahnke will serve as music director.
The cruise will borrow the 2,000-person Norwegian Gem. Stateroom prices start at $1,165 per person. The trip was delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Cruise ships were an early source of outbreaks at the start of the pandemic. The CDC issued a no-sail order in March 2020, leading to a shutdown that ended in June 2021 as cruise ships began leaving US ports with new health and safety requirements.
All guests over the age of 12, and all performers and crew, aboard the Broadway Cruise must be fully immunized and present proof of immunization to board.
