Broadway’s best songs—all in one night!

Get ready for an unforgettable concert on Christopher Newport University's Great Lawn! Join us on August 28 at 7 p.m. for the world premiere of Broadway: Then and Now, a one-night symphonic experience featuring the Virginia Symphony Orchestra!

Co-conceived by and starring Tony Award winner Santino Fontana (Tootsie, Disney's Frozen) and Broadway superstar Erika Henningsen (Just in Time, Mean Girls), with acclaimed music director Andrew Resnick (Just in Time, Parade), this show was developed in partnership with the CNU's Ferguson Center to bring a world-class theatrical event to our community.

From The Sound of Music to Hamilton, and Anything Goes to Frozen, this performance bridges the past and present to showcase the evolution of musical theatre in one unforgettable evening. 

This world premiere is free and open to all, so bring your blanket, grab a spot on the lawn, and celebrate the music that has powered Broadway for nearly a century.
