- The Hills of California
“What is a song? A song is a dream… a place to be. Somewhere you can live. And in that place, there are no walls. No boundaries. No locks. No keys. You can go anywhere…” Following their triumph The Ferryman, Jez Butterworth (Jerusalem) and Sam Mendes (The Lehman Trilogy) reunite for The Hills of California.
The Broadhurst Theatre, which opened in 1917 with a production of George Bernard Shaw’s Misalliance, is named after playwright George H. Broadhurst. Broadhurst, who was from England, came to America in 1886. Along with being a playwright, he was also managed venues, running various theatres in Milwaukee, Baltimore, and San Francisco. He then decided to open his own theatre in association with the Shubert brothers. The theatre, which was built to house both musicals and straight plays, was designed by one of the preeminent theatre architects of the time, Herbert J. Krapp. Its capacity is 1,156. The Shubert Organization owns the Broadhurst.
