After decades of globetrotting, rock legend Bruce Springsteen is officially heading for Broadway this fall. During an eight-week period, Springsteen will perform renditions of his arena rock sets at the Walter Kerr Theatre on 218 West 48th Street in New York.

Performance and ticket sales dates are currently pending, but sources have confirmed that Springsteen will appear five nights a week for “more intimate” engagements. Following his 2016 tour, Springsteen reportedly “wants to play a smaller house” and “try something more intimate.” Without a doubt, Bruce on Broadway is sure to be a once-in-a-lifetime sensation.
