A Beautiful Noise – The Neil Diamond Musical at Thelma Gaylord Performing Arts Theatre

Join the trailblazing musical commemoration in honor of one of history's MOST SPECTACULAR rock and roll icons! In this year's spring season, A Beautiful Noise - The Neil Diamond Musical will set off a series of much-awaited exhibitions for its extended nationwide tour, which includes a Thelma Gaylord PAT At Civic Center Music Hall appearance on Wednesday 4th March 2026.
“The storyline was perfectly scripted, visually exciting, and engaging. I laughed, I cried, and sang along.”
The Neil Diamond Musical is led by Tony Award-winning director Michael Mayer and features a highly praised book by New Zealand writer Anthony McCarten.
With waves of dazzling songs, dance, and theatrics, this upcoming musical portrays the behind-the-scenes stories of Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Neil Diamond.
The musician himself closely cooperated with the production team to retain its genuineness, adamantly championing awareness for mental health with a narrative framed through Neil’s therapy sessions. Keen audiences are also in for an exciting surprise as the event exhibits a selection of his best-selling hits, such as “Solitary Man,” “Sweet Caroline,” and “Forever in Blue Jeans.”
Featured in A Beautiful Noise’s brilliant cast are main stars Nick Fradiani and Mark Jacoby, who’ll be filling in the roles of a past and current Neil Diamond. Together, the pair will lay out the subtleties of the singer’s personas on and off the stage, revealing fascinating new angles from his days of youth in Brooklyn to his record-breaking rise to global fame.
