Show Page - English

Bandstand, is the new musical from Andy Blankenbuehler, winner of the 2017 Tony Award® for Best Choreography and the 2016 Tony Award for Hamilton, that explodes with the most high-octane, heart-stopping and best dancing on stage today.

They came home to a new America. They made the music that inspired the nation.

1945. As America’s soldiers come home to ticker-tape parades and overjoyed families, Private First Class Donny Novitski, singer and songwriter, returns to rebuild his life with only the shirt on his back and a dream in his heart.

When NBC announces a national competition to find the nation’s next great musical superstars, inspiration strikes! Donny joins forces with a motley group of fellow veterans, each an astonishing musician. Together, they form a band unlike any the nation has ever seen. Along the way, they discover the power of music to face the impossible, find their voice and finally feel like they have a place to call home.

We really liked the show! The story line was very entertaining. We liked the fact a lot of the music was actually being played on stage by the which, which made it pretty special.

Awesome! It is very emotional and funny at the same time. It's based on true friendship and love. Great performers and great songs, and the music brings a lot of feelings.

I really enjoyed it! I really liked the swing sound. The story was not only for the Great Generation, but for us now, and it tells how to rebuild your life and move onto a better future.
