Maybe Happy Ending is a Tony Award-winning musical about a chance encounter between two retired helper-bots in a near-future Seoul. The story follows their unexpected journey as they discover what it means to feel real human emotions, including love and hope. If you plan to go, keep in mind that this production is best suited for middle schoolers, teenagers, and adults due to its emotional themes. Ticket prices vary depending on seating, and it is best to secure your spots early since Broadway national tours at this venue tend to sell out quickly. This show makes an excellent weekend pick because it offers a fresh, modern story that differs from traditional musical theater. It is a great opportunity to head downtown early, grab dinner at one of the nearby restaurants on Blackwell Street, and enjoy a high-quality Broadway performance close to home.
