Thursday Is the New Wednesday for Broadway Musical Matinees
by Broadway.com Staff • Feb 27, 2014
Set your alarm clocks, Broadway stars, because Thursday may no longer be a sleep-in day!
Following in the footsteps of many West End shows, some big Broadway musicals are adding a Thursday matinee to the mix of the eight-show-a-week schedule. The Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia! and Cinderella are first out of the gate, kicking off Thursday afternoon shows on April 3, 2014.
Next up is Matilda, which will add some Thursday matinees in May and June. Don’t worry, Lesli Margherita...we’ll give you a wake-up call!
