Purple Rain on Broadway tickets

See Prince's stunning, moving, and Academy Award-winning story live on stage. Purple Rain the musical comes to the Majestic Theatre starting March 12, 2027 and will feature fan favorite songs like “When Doves Cry,” “I Would Die 4 U,” "Take Me with You," and "The Beautiful Ones."

Don't miss Purple Rain on Broadway — based on Prince's hit film, Purple Rain follows "The Kid," a musician on the rise in 1984 Minneapolis. A new music era has arrived, and music videos make overnight stars. The Kid is on his own hunt for fame, but will his past catch up with him and steal him away from the spotlight?

Purple Rain in New York is the thrilling stage adaptation of this beloved and award-winning film: it won the Academy Award for Best Original Score, its album is certified platinum by the Recording Industry of America, and, in 2019, the Library of Congress added the film to the National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."

Purple Rain brings together musicians who worked alongside Prince with Broadway professionals to create a team of record and theatre leaders. Tony Award nominee Saheem Ali directs this new musical.

“Prince is, without doubt, one of the rarest, most brilliant musicians we've ever had," said producer Orin Wolf in a statement. "What he accomplished with Purple Rain in 1984 — the song, the album and the film — is a testament to the art of making music and showcases it at the highest level. The musical will be every bit as exciting for audiences today as it was when we first heard these songs on our boom boxes."
