It is a delightful and heart-warming meditation on the changes that occur in families as children grow up, adults age and situations and relationships alter. This show

With Founders Park closed, Nelson Musical Theatre have made the heartbreaking decision to *cancel the first week of 'A Night on Broadway'. Due to slips and flooding we are currently unable to access the theatre, and we have to consider the safety of our cast and patrons.

We hope that the show can go ahead *next week - our cast, band, and crew are so ready to share this show with you all ✨

For those who were coming this *week, please contact iTicket for transfers or refunds.

Stay safe, and keep Singing in the Rain ☔
