Guests will be given a rare behind-the-scenes private tour of the most sought-after rehearsal studio complex, Open Jar Studios, and get a sneak peek of what it takes to write, develop, and produce the next hit stage musical.

We had a great time on the Broadway Studios Tour. I loved getting a glimpse at how a Broadway rehearsal studio runs and found all the info about how a Broadway show is made so fascinating! I’m a high school theatre teacher in CA and really hope I’ll be able to bring my students to NYC to take this tour! I know they’d love it. Thanks for your insight and for being a great guide, Hugh.

The Broadway Studios Tour was awesome! I've always loved Broadway as a kid, so being able to catch a glimpse of that world was epic.
