from The Roundtable with Robert Bannon · host Broadway Podcast Network

Friendship, heartbreak, and that song… yes, that song. Beaches has officially opened on Broadway, bringing the beloved story of lifelong friendship between Cee Cee and Bertie to the stage in a sweeping, emotional production filled with powerhouse vocals and nostalgic moments. Led by Jessica Vosk and Kelli Barrett, this new production leans all the way into the heart of the story—big voices, big feelings, and the kind of storytelling that reminds you why theater matters. And yes, when “Wind Beneath My Wings” hits? You already know… the tears are coming. Opening night was a full-on event. The cast and creatives were out in full force, celebrating a show that has been years in the making, while the VIP list brought the sparkle: Loretta Devine, Paul Shaffer, Todrick Hall, Danny Burstein, Alex Newell and more showed up to celebrate this emotional, music-filled night. It felt like a love letter to friendship, to theater, and to the moments that stay with you long after the curtain falls. Because at its core, Beaches reminds us: the people who lift us up—they are the story. And baby… this one lets them soar.
