Hennepin Theatre Trust unveiled its 2024-2025 Bank of America Broadway on Hennepin season, featuring 11 Broadway productions coming to downtown Minneapolis.
The lineup includes seven Minnesota premieres and four returning favorites, highlighted by recently announced pre-Broadway world premiere of Purple Rain at the historic State Theatre in 2025.
“We are more than thrilled and proud to present Purple Rain in its hometown next year before it makes its way to Broadway,” said Todd Duesing, Hennepin Theatre Trust president and CEO. “Prince was a visionary artist who created the Minneapolis sound and ignited a profound appreciation for the arts in the Twin Cities and Minnesota as a whole, leaving an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of the region. As the birthplace of the legendary musician and songwriter, and the setting of the renowned movie that captivated the world, Minnesota will see everybody literally dancing in the streets in celebration of seeing Purple Rain transform from screen to stage.”
