Attend the trendsetting theatrical celebration in honor of one of the country's MOST SPECTACULAR rock and roll icons! In this year's spring season, A Beautiful Noise - The Neil Diamond Musical will open a chain of long-awaited shows for its all-new national tour, which includes a Friday 6th March 2026 appearance at the Thelma Gaylord PAT At Civic Center Music Hall .
“So good… So good… So good, that I put Neil immediately in my Spotify rotation on the walk and train ride home.”
The Neil Diamond Musical is headed by esteemed theater director Michael Mayer and features a highly acclaimed book by BAFTA Award-winning writer Anthony McCarten.
Through dazzling dance and song numbers, this upcoming musical depicts the never-before-shared anecdotes of Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee Neil Diamond.
The singer himself intimately collaborated with the writing room to maintain its genuineness, staunchly advocating awareness for mental health with a narrative framed through Neil’s therapy sessions. Eager fans are also in for a thrilling treat as the musical exhibits a selection of his most influential tunes, such as “I'm a Believer,” “Cherry, Cherry,” and “Forever in Blue Jeans.”
Fronting A Beautiful Noise’s world-class cast are Nick Fradiani and Mark Jacoby, who’ll be performing the parts of a past and current Neil. Together, the two will detail the subtleties of the singer-songwriter's identities in and out of the spotlight, revealing interesting new insights from his boyhood days in Brooklyn to his record-setting rise to stardom.
