Broadway & Live Theater — 2026-11-10
Key Highlights
Two Major Openings The most significant news of the past 24 hours is the official opening of two new productions on Broadway. Wanted, a new musical inspired by the true story of Black sisters who passed for white and became outlaws in 1890s Texas, opened at the James Earl Jones Theatre. Simultaneously, Here There Are Blueberries, a play by the Tectonic Theatre Project focusing on Nazi photographs, opened on Broadway on November 9.
Preview Runs Begin November 10 marked the start of previews for two anticipated dramas. Inter Alia, starring Rosamund Pike in her Broadway debut as a London Crown Court judge, began previews at the Music Box Theatre. Also starting previews was Galileo, a new musical about the famous scientist starring Raúl Esparza, at the Shubert Theatre.
Review Spotlight
'Wanted' Draws Mixed Criticism The critical consensus on Wanted is mixed. The New York Times described the musical as having a "messy vigilante story" that "squanders its musical riches," despite being rooted in writer Angelica Chéri’s family lore. Variety’s review noted that while the show features "truly sensational notes and performances," it "flounders when it comes to its muted outlaw story". Conversely, New York Theater highlighted the unique family lore inspiration, noting lyricist Angelica Chéri and composer Ross Baum fashioned the tale from stories carried for generations.
'Here There Are Blueberries' Reviews Early reviews for Here There Are Blueberries have begun to surface following its November 9 opening. The play, which explores the history of Nazi photographs, is now available for critical assessment, though specific verdicts from major outlets were not detailed in the immediate past-24-hour summaries provided.
Coming Up
Upcoming Openings The schedule for the coming weeks includes Now You See Me Live, a magic spectacular based on the Lionsgate film series, which opens November 11 at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre. Inter Alia is scheduled to officially open on December 1, and Galileo will open on December 6.
