The best new musicals coming to Broadway in 2020 are a mix between new stage shows and revivals of classic productions. Some started off Broadway or out of town in 2019, but in 2020, they are coming to the Great White Way, with all the hoopla and excitement that entails today.

One of the most exciting developments is the upcoming&nbsp;Mrs. Doubtfire&nbsp;musical, based on the smash-hit Robin Williams film that is still beloved by fans across generations. Meanwhile, the&nbsp;Sing Street&nbsp;musical is based on a less-seen but critically acclaimed indie film.

The current crop of Broadway shows certainly will not lack for star power, either on stage or behind the scenes. A Michael Jackson musical is hitting the stage, along with&nbsp;Girl from the North Country, with music and lyrics by Bob Dylan. In addition, Hugh Jackman will appear on stage as the star in the most recent&nbsp;revival of the ever-popular&nbsp;Music Man.

The best Broadway theaters allow audiences to immerse themselves in a great stage production.&nbsp;Whether you&#39;re talking about a grand hall that serves as home to a big, lavish musical or a more intimate space that showcases quieter dramatic plays and small comedies, there&#39;s no better way to see a show than in the audience at one of these famous theaters in New York City.

The Lion King, the most successful show&nbsp;in Broadway history, has gone up at the&nbsp;Minskoff Theatre without interruption since 2006, setting record after record in the glorious old building that may be unassuming from the outside but opens up into a beautiful, classical look on the inside. While not every Broadway theater can&nbsp;have a show as successful as that, the stages at the August Wilson Theatre and the George Gershwin Theatre have seen multiple Tony Award winners for best musical performed.

But it&#39;s not only about the biggest Broadway theater in NYC.&nbsp;The smaller&nbsp;Ethel Barrymore Theatre provided the stage for Best Play Tony Award winner&nbsp;The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, offering one of the most immersive and spectacular experiences in Broadway&#39;s long history, with a stunning light-up stage and pulsing sound system that put audiences in the heart of the mystery.
