Paramount’s Broadway Series wows audiences, critics alike! Give your regards to Broadway if you want, but critics and crowds alike are hailing the Paramount Theatre’s Broadway Series as better than anything New York City has to offer. The third season of the Paramount Theatre’s Broadway Series opened to rave reviews this fall with the country’s first off-Broadway production of “In The Heights,” and a lauded restaging of “Miss Saigon,” both featuring top-notch casts of local and Equity actors, a full pit orchestra, and sets designed to bring song and story to life. Chicago theater critics have deemed the Paramount productions “remarkable,” “inspired,” and “powerful.” Two shows remain in the Broadway Series this season. Opening Jan. 15, “42nd Street,” aptly enough, tells the classic tale of making it big on Broadway, with show-stopping tunes W H AT C R I T I C S A R E S AY I N G : “Truly remarkable” “We’re in the Money,” “Shuffle Off to Buffalo,” and “42nd Street.” CHRIS JONES, CHICAGO TRIBUNE “Rent,” winner of three Tony Awards and Pulitzer Prize for Drama, tells the stories of young musicians and struggling artists living under the threat of the early HIV/AIDS epidemic, in a season closer unlikely to leave any audience unchanged. It opens March 12.
