The Broadway Cruise will return for its fourth sailing in 2027, featuring a lineup led by Patti LuPone alongside a roster of Tony Award winners and nominees, organizers announced.
Presented by Sixthman and EBG, the five-day voyage will take place April 15-20, 2027, aboard the Norwegian Jewel. The cruise will sail round-trip from Miami to Cozumel, Mexico, and Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas.
The lineup includes Darren Criss, Norbert Leo Butz, Laura Bell Bundy, Kerry Butler, Micaela Diamond, Norm Lewis, Adrienne Warren, and Marissa Jaret Winokur, among others. Additional participants include director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell and composer Marc Shaiman.
Organizers said the cruise will feature mainstage performances, intimate shows, workshops, Q&A sessions, and interactive programming with Broadway artists. Ticketed performances will include appearances by Norm Lewis and a production of Mama I’m a Big Girl Now! featuring Winokur, Bundy and Butler.
Music direction will be provided by Will Van Dyke, with hosting duties by Henry Koperski and Ethan Christopher. Theatre journalist Gordon Cox is scheduled to moderate panels and interviews.
