Broadway's theatre map is shifting with notable vacancies and fresh bookings emerging for the 2026-2027 season.
Twenty-six shows are playing across Broadway venues as of early June 2026. Industry trackers continue to monitor availability at each house as producers plan future engagements.
The Majestic Theatre has no production announced and is listed as vacant according to reports dated June 3, 2026. This leaves one of the district's historic spaces open for potential new tenants in the coming weeks.
Two productions have already locked in specific theatres and dates. Paranormal Activity is scheduled to open September 15, 2026, at the August Wilson Theatre and will close January 3, 2027. The limited run gives the venue a defined window before it returns to the market.
WANTED is set to open November 8, 2026, at the James Earl Jones Theatre. This booking adds another title to the fall calendar and fills a slot at a venue that has hosted several recent transfers and original works.
The Broadway League's opening night calendar and Playbill's ongoing real estate reports provide the most current snapshots of these arrangements. Both sources compile weekly updates that reflect confirmed contracts between producers and theatre owners.
Theatre bookings function as the core real estate transactions of the Broadway industry. Each house represents a finite asset whose availability directly influences which projects can move forward and on what timeline. A vacancy such as the one at the Majestic can prompt accelerated negotiations while confirmed dates at the August Wilson and James Earl Jones reduce uncertainty for those specific addresses.
Additional venues including the Hudson Theatre and Hayes Theater remain part of the active inventory, though the latest available data does not detail new commitments at those locations. Producers and general managers routinely scan these reports to identify opportunities or plan extensions.
As the summer progresses, further announcements are expected. Weekly updates scheduled for June 7, June 14, June 21, and June 28 will likely clarify whether the Majestic secures a tenant and whether any adjustments occur at the other houses already holding future bookings.
