Local Shows
— Take Your Date to See Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 @ Zach Theater
Through Sunday, March 3 | Various times here | Ticket prices vary – check here
We got to see this musical with our galentine and loved it so much. It’s thought-provoking, funny, and engaging and the actor’s voices are SO good. Choose from traditional seating, or stage seating, which will give you an even more interactive experience for the show. The actors perform throughout the theater, so all the seats are great seats in this Zach Mainstage 360 experience. It’s the perfect Valentine’s date night or gift. Get all the details for what TimeOut New York hails as “One of the best musicals of the decade!” here. The show is recommended for ages 12+, so this would be for older kids or date night!
