April 2026, Theatre District: A routine traffic stop. A murder conviction. 22 years on death row. "The Fear of 13" tells the extraordinary true story of Nick Yarris, who spends more than two decades on death row for a murder he insists he did not commit. Two-time Academy Award Winner Adrien Brody & Golden Globe nominee Tessa Thompson brought that story to life at the James Earl Jones Theatre — making their Broadway debuts. Through a series of prison visits with a volunteer named Jacki, Nick traces a life shaped by impulse and consequence. As Nick and Jacki’s conversations deepen, the line between witness and participant blurs, forcing both to confront what justice demands, what belief requires, and the perilous distance between true freedom and the illusion of self determination. The Fear of 13 is a powerful exploration of truth and trust, conscience and connection. @Fearof13Broadway⁩ #TheFearof13 #adrienbrody #tessathompson #nickyarris #lindseyferrentino #davidcromer

Adrien Brody just made his Broadway debut — and it’s everything.

April 2026 - Theatre District, NYC: A splashy new production is making waves on Broadway. The parody musical "Titanique" officially opened, bringing big laughs, powerhouse vocals, and a uniquely campy twist to one of cinema’s most iconic love stories. Opening night of Titanique drew a full house, with theatergoers eager to see how the show reimagines the blockbuster film Titanic—through the music of global superstar Celine Dion. But this isn’t your typical retelling. In Titanique, Dion herself takes center stage as the narrator, guiding audiences through a wildly exaggerated—and often hilarious—version of Jack and Rose’s doomed voyage. Mike Leventhal was on the blue carpet for opening night and caught with the creator, writer and visionary Marla Mindelle to find out how she pulled this all off. Packed with hits like “My Heart Will Go On” and “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now,” the show leans into comedy, improvisation, and over-the-top performances. Fans say it’s equal parts tribute and spoof. The production has already built a cult following during its earlier runs off-Broadway, and tonight marks its biggest stage yet. Producers say the goal is simple: give audiences a night of pure entertainment—no life rafts required. It's a musical that turns tragedy into comedy. Titanique is now officially open on Broadway. Tickets are on sale now. You might find yourself going back to see it a few times…

Spirited Titanique Opening Night On Broadway

April 2026 - Theater District, NYC: It was opening night at the Broadhurst Theater on a chilly Sporing night but the energy overtook the weather - Cats has always been stuffed with history. Upon its London premiere in 1981, Gillian Lynne's original choreography made Cats a groundbreaking dance musical, and the original NYC production became the fifth-longest-running Broadway show of all time. Now, after more than four decades, the reimagined revival Cats: The Jellicle Ball brings a new look, new energy and dance moves that even impress Andrew Lloyd Webber. Cats: The Jellicle Ball brilliantly expands and recontextualizes the show's history, particularly through the choreography by Arturo Lyons and Omari Wiles. Directed by Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch, this production is set in the world of vogue balls, which originated among LGBTQ+ people of color as safe spaces for competition, community, and self-expression through dance and fashion. NYC VIBE was on the yellow carpet to talk with the cast, directors and stars and celebrities on hand to enjoy this new interpretation. The original Cats set its action at a “Jellicle Ball,” in which one cat is chosen to ascend to a new life. Cats: The Jellicle Ball explicitly frames this event as a community gathering and shows how dance is a form of both self-expression and survival. The cats in this revival aren't literal cats, but a small society of people there to both compete for a fresh start and protect each other's lives as they are. #cats #andrewlloydwebber #johnlegend #jellicleball @CatsTheJellicleBall

January 2026 - Hell’s Kitchen, NYC: Magic Mike LIVE is now developing an all new production that will premiere this October. Created and directed by Channing Tatum, Magic Mike Live is designed to merge hospitality, nightlife along with live entertainment - all carefully mixed together to create a special experience. Channing and the development team have been hard at work on this production with the aim to deliver a show with the spirit of confidence, celebration of the body, and female empowerment - bringing together a global roster of the finest dancers and athletes for an atmosphere built for an unforgettable evening that will create a buzz that has not been seen in Times Square in a long time. At the site of the old Copacabana, NYC VIBE’s Mike Leventhal was invited with the media to hear from Channing and the creative team - with the revelation that the interior has been gutted - with a new renovated, multi-function and custom-built venue now under construction. This all started with the film Magic Mike released in 2012 where Channing Tatum actually financially backed the film! Did you know that before Channing Tatum was an actor he was actually a male stripper in Tampa for 10 months? Magic Mike Live wants to be NYC's "Ultimate Girls' Night out," with a 90-minute show that takes it cues from the successful movie franchise featuring dance routines, acrobatics, and a waterfall scene that Channing says he is planning to be on stage on an unannounced night - which he will decide when the spirit moves him. NYC VIBE will be back during the summer months to watch rehearsals and talk with the cast as the production is finalized. #channingtatum #magicmike #magicmikenailedit #copacabana @magicmikelive

October 2025 - The Theater District, NYC: As the Broadway community is at the center of a divided nation - federal funds being eliminated and cut in many cases and costs rising each year to produce first rate productions - the Drama League made it quite clear at its annual benefit gala in the theater district the message to the aspiring next generation of stage performers is to work hard, stay focused and stay on the path to follow your dreams - as the theater needs you now more than ever.

October 2025 - Lincoln Center, NY: Ragtime is back on Broadway—a towering musical event that makes the story of America feel both intimate and epic. Set in the vibrant, turbulent dawn of the 20th century, this rich tapestry weaves together fictional narratives with the essential currents of history, blurring the line between personal struggle and national identity. In the bustling melting pot of New York, a Black pianist, a Jewish immigrant, and a wealthy white mother find their lives dramatically intertwined. Their fictional struggles explode against a backdrop of real history, where they cross paths with icons like Harry Houdini, Emma Goldman, Booker T. Washington, and Henry Ford. This landmark production is based on E. L. Doctorow's 1975 novel, featuring the four-time Tony Award-winning playwright, the late Terrence McNally and a truly brilliant, soaring score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens. NYC Vibe's Mike Leventhal caught up with Tony-nominated director Lear deBessonet, who spoke of a special, personal mission driving this high energy and emotional production. On opening night, the cast concurred: the script's message is more vital now than ever. It is a profound responsibility to carry forward a story that ultimately leaves the audience with one powerful, resonant word: HOPE. #Ragtime, #RagtimeBroadway, #BroadwayIsBack, #MustSeeMusical, #MusicalTheatre, #AmericanHistory, #IntimateAndEpic, #Hope, #MoreRelevantThanEver, #TerrenceMcNally, #FlahertyAndAhrens, #LearDeBessonet, #Broadway2025, #NewYorkTheatre

Lin-Manuel Miranda and Ariana DeBose Receive Top Honors at HOLA's 50th Anniversary Gala | NYC VIBE:

October 2025 - Upper East Side, NYC The Denyce Graves Foundation’s “Harvest Moon Gala” hosted by Emmy Award–winning journalist and “20/20” co-host Deborah Roberts honoring Andrea Bocelli, Chandrika Tandon, Dr. Louise Toppin, and Francesca Zambello. All these honorees are visionaries whose artistry and leadership are shaping the future of the arts. The highlight of the gala was an exclusive performance by Andrea Bocelli in an intimate setting - which also celebrated the work of the Andrea Bocelli Foundation Mike Leventhal connected with the Maestro to talk about the important and exciting breakthrough work his and Denyce Graves Foundations are providing to the communities they serve. Proceeds from the night will benefit the Foundation’s signature initiatives, from Shared Voices, linking students and faculty at Historically Black Colleges and Universities with leading conservatories, to Hidden Voices, which commissions new works that illuminate artists historically left out of the record, as well as masterclasses, scholarships, community concerts, artist development programs, and more. USA Opera for Peace Academy, is an elite, fully-funded program in Washington, DC, and New York City that nurtures the next generation of global Citizen Artists to serve as cultural ambassadors and leaders. Massive cuts to national and local arts and culture programs by the government are causing foundations to work harder and reimagine programs to keep education and opportunities alive. So in just four short years, Denyce’s belief in the mission has helped turn a bold idea into a thriving movement. The famed opera star says restoring what has been forgotten, and weaving a more complete and truthful narrative that honors every voice and enriches our shared cultural legacy is more important than ever. @denycegravesfoundation @FondazioneAndreaBocelli @AndreaBocelli @DenyceGraves
