“This year I’ve been having the time of my life, touring my new show across the UK. Now it will be an extra treat to return to Broadway, 50 years after my debut in NYC, especially as it will benefit the inspirational work of Only Make Believe. Please come and help me celebrate!”
After celebrating his 80th birthday with an extensive 80 date UK Tour, the legendary Sir Ian McKellen is bringing his acclaimed one-man show to Broadway...for one night only! This fascinating, funny and extra special performance sees the theater, TV and movie veteran perform some of his most celebrated work as well as sharing personal anecdotes from his illustrious career. From Gandalf to King Lear, McKellen does it all, don’t miss it!
Directed by Sean Mathias this unique performance of Ian McKellen On Stage will be in benefit of the nonprofit organization, Only Make Believe, which creates interactive theater for critically ill and disabled children.
