Why see Illinoise?
Come On Feel The Noise... The Illinoise
Winner of the 2024 Tony for Best Choreography for Justin Peck!
Tony Awards including Best Musical! Your time has come to hunt for UFOs and hide from the Night Zombies as Justin Peck and Jackie Sibblies Drury's musical Illinoise transfers from Chicago's Shakespeare Theatre to Broadway! A brand new show, the duo was inspired by Sufjan Steven's 2005 concept album Illinoise, which to no one's surprise is about the state of Illinois.
This genre-bending work covering everything from serial killers to the first superhero actor to civil war graves inspired Tony Winner Peck and Pulitzer Prize winner Drury to create a theatrical spectacle that includes singers, dancers, and a live band.
