A brand-new year means a fresh lineup of theatre nights — and January 2026 is already promising two unforgettable Broadway experiences. We’re kicking off the season with a mix of bubbly rom-com energy and sweeping musical drama. Whether you’re in the mood to laugh, swoon, or be completely transported, this month’s shows deliver.
🎭 Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York)
January 13 • Orchestra Seats • $130
We’re starting 2026 with one of Broadway’s most charming newer musicals. Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) pairs Dougal, an enthusiastic Brit flying in for his father’s wedding, with Robin, the bride’s no-nonsense sister who gets stuck escorting him around the city — plus a wedding cake that quickly becomes its own adventure.
This two-person musical blends sharp humor, heartfelt moments, and a rom-com spirit that feels tailor-made for anyone who loves stories about unexpected connection. With orchestra seats, we’ll catch every bit of chemistry, comedic timing, and emotional nuance between the show’s leads.
If you’re looking for something light, fun, and irresistibly charming, this is the perfect January kickoff.
🎶 Ragtime
January 27 • Orchestra Seats • $130
Later in the month, we shift gears into one of the most powerful and iconic musicals in the Broadway canon. Ragtime returns with all the emotional depth and sweeping storytelling that made it a classic. Set at the turn of the 20th century, it intertwines the lives of a wealthy suburban family, Black artists and activists in Harlem, and Jewish immigrants striving for a new beginning.
With its soaring score and themes of justice, identity, and hope, Ragtime offers a rich theatrical experience that stays with you long after the curtain call. Sitting in the orchestra will make every performance detail even more impactful — from the big ensemble moments to the smallest gestures of the show’s most intimate scenes.
✨ Why These Two Make the Perfect January Pair
January brings a perfect balance:
- A sweet, contemporary NYC rom-com full of humor and heart.
- A sweeping American epic that resonates just as strongly in 2026 as ever.
Whether you want to be delighted, moved, or both, these two shows make for a beautifully rounded start to the year.

📸 A Little Peek Behind the Curtain
Rehearsals are already underway — expect electric chemistry and big laughs. This trio hasn’t shared a Broadway stage like this before, so it’s one of those brag-worthy shows you’ll be glad you saw.
Broadway’s about to get a fresh dose of glitz, satire, and real-life drama as The Queen of Versailles prepares to sweep into the St. James Theatre for the 2025–2026 season. If you’ve ever watched the jaw-dropping 2012 documentary that inspired it, you already know this isn’t your average rags-to-riches tale. It’s a sharp, at times outrageous, true story about the rise and fall of one of America’s most headline-grabbing couples — with Broadway diva Kristin Chenoweth right at the center, tiara firmly in place. We have a block of seats in the Orchestra on October 28th at 7:30 for $130. Email me to save your spot!!!
Based on Lauren Greenfield’s acclaimed film, The Queen of Versailles musical dives deep into the lives of Jackie and David Siegel, the so-called “timeshare king and queen” of Florida. The Siegels dreamed of building the largest private home in America, a sprawling 90,000-square-foot palace modeled after France’s Versailles. But as the 2008 financial crisis hit, their empire — and their massive mansion-in-progress — started to crumble just as spectacularly as it was conceived.
Now, that unbelievable true story is being transformed into a larger-than-life Broadway show, with all the glitz and heartbreak you’d expect. At the heart of it is Kristin Chenoweth, who hasn’t graced the Broadway stage in a starring role for nearly a decade. For Chenoweth, it’s more than a comeback — it’s a reunion with legendary composer Stephen Schwartz, the same genius behind Wicked, where she famously originated the role of Glinda. Fans are buzzing to see what this dynamic duo dreams up next.
The new musical, with a book by playwright Lindsey Ferrentino and direction by Tony Award-winner Michael Arden, doesn’t shy away from the Siegels’ contradictions. Jackie Siegel, once a beauty queen from a modest background, becomes the ultimate symbol of excess — complete with shopping sprees, a massive household staff, and dreams bigger than any budget could possibly justify. But the show promises to find the humanity beneath the glitter: the marital strain, the family grief, and the endless tightrope walk between ambition and delusion.
During its pre-Broadway world premiere in Boston, the show dazzled audiences with its eye-popping design and Chenoweth’s powerhouse performance. Critics called it “lavish” and “bitingly funny” at times, though a few noted that it still needed some polishing to fully balance its satire with the genuine emotional core of Jackie’s story. Early audiences loved the over-the-top visuals — think sweeping staircases, giant LED screens, and costumes dripping with rhinestones — but what really stuck with people was Chenoweth’s commitment to her character. By all accounts, she channels Jackie Siegel with just the right blend of larger-than-life charisma and aching vulnerability.
