This year, TADA! turns 40! 

A lot has changed since 1985, but one thing, at least, has stayed the same: TADA!'s unwavering commitment to producing exceptional, original theater with a diverse community of youth in New York City. This year, we are ecstatic to announce the revival of one of our most popular original musicals, The History Mystery, at a time when the need for historical context and political advocacy is at an all-time high. This Spring, Game Changers, written by Resident Youth Ensemble Theater alum Christina Franklin, exemplifies the robust community of talented professionals TADA! has been proud to guide through their youth.  Join us for a season of celebration this year at TADA! Our original musicals are recommended for audience members ages 3 and up, and our affordable ticket prices are some of the best in the city. See more about season 40 below!

This election season, get inspired by a new generation of history-makers at The History Mystery! Perfect for ages 3+. Bring the whole family for less than the price of a Broadway ticket!
