A musical about the life and career of Cher will have its Broadway debut in 2018, producers announced on Thursday morning.
The Cher Musical will have an out-of-town tryout in Chicago beginning in June 2018 before transferring to the Neil Simon Theatre in New York in the fall.
The biographical musical will feature Cher’s chart-topping hits, and will follow the life of the singer, actress, and icon.
The Cher Show will feature a book by Rick Elice (Jersey Boys), direction by Jason Moore (Avenue Q), choreography by Christopher Gattelli (a Tony winner for Newsies), and orchestrations, arrangements, and musical supervision by Daryl Waters (a Tony winner for Memphis).
