Read Reviews for The Cher Show on Broadway

Stephanie J. Block, Teal Wicks, and Micaela Diamond star as the entertainment icon in the new Broadway bio-musical that opens December 3 at the Neil Simon Theatre.

The Cher Show, the new Broadway musical that charts the life and career of award-winning entertainer and pop-culture icon Cher, officially opens on Broadway December 3 at the Neil Simon Theatre.

Tony Award-winning Jersey Boys book writer Rick Elice wrote the book for the musical that incorporates 35 of Cher's songs, from her career-launching 1965 duet with Sonny Bono, "I Got You Babe," to her 2013 dance album Closer to The Truth. Jason Moore (Avenue Q, Pitch Perfect) directs, with choreography by Tony winner Christopher Gattelli (Newsies, South Pacific)

A trio of actors portray Cher at definitive moments in her evolution as an artist. Tony Award nominee Stephanie J. Block (Falsettos, Wicked) as a "modern day" Chjer guides audiences through her journey, joined by Teal Wicks (Wicked, Finding Neverland) and Micaela Diamond (NBC’s recent live Jesus Christ Superstar) who bring to life the early decades of her career—which has spanned six decades of show business.

The costumes for the show are by nine-time Emmy Award-winning designer Bob Mackie, who has collaborated with Cher over the years on myriad iconic looks, dating back to her 1967 appearance on The Carol Burnett Show.

Mr. Mackie's fashions have been recreated in exact detail from the original pieces worn by Cher in music videos, television specials, concerts, and award shows. An entire number in the show is dedicated to Mackie's dazzling collection.
