Broadway Shows in April 2026

Spring Break gets underway this month, making April 2026 one of the best times to book a ticket for teen-friendly theater shows in New York. Two of the best Broadway musicals for your middle and high schoolers are SIX and & Juliet, lifting dusty History and English classes off the page with a fun pop twist. New shows opening include Schmigadoon the Musical, based on the hilarious musical TV show, new play Becky Shaw and one-man show Kenrex, transferring off-Broadway following an acclaimed London run. Also off-Broadway, catch Wallace Shawn double-bill The Fever and What We Did Before Our Moth Days, and Chinese Republican’s, closing this month.
