1. Stomp - Lynn Memorial Auditorium - May 30, 2024

Have you ever wondered what happens in a show where the performers use everyday objects to create intricate rhythms and beats? That's exactly the job of Stomp, Boston's most innovative percussive extravaganza.

Created way back in 1991 in Brighton, England by Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas, Stomp has new been seen by millions of people worldwide. It premiered on Broadway in 1994, and some of the show's most memorable moments also include performing 'Cecilia' with Paul Simon on Late Night and playing at the Olympics Opening Ceremony of London 2012.

2. Boston Ballet - Carmen - Citizens Bank Opera House - April 25 - May 5, 2024

Boston Ballet's resident choreographer Jorma Elo is a visionary dance maker in constant hot demand. His captivating kinetic spin on Georges Bizet's Carmen takes pride of place in this female-forward program, which also showcases George Balanchine's Serenade, the balletmaster's first-ever piece created in America for his fledgeling students and American contemporary choreographer Helen Pickett's Tsukiyo, stunningly intimate duet based on the Japanese fable of the Woodcutter's Daughter.

3. Hans Zimmer - Emerson Colonial Theater - May 6, 2024

With a repertoire that includes classics such as The Dark Knight, Inception and Gladiatior, no ones captures the magic of a Hollywood soundtrack quite like master composer Hans Zimmer. Sweepingly epic and emotionally punching, Zimmer's music has resonated with all ages across the glove, and now his orchestra will perform selections from his historical songbook, capturing every note that made us fall in love with the films he participated in.

4. Diana Ross - Wang Theatre - May 16, 2024

Diana Ross rose to fame as the lead singer of The Supremes, one of Motown's most successful acts. Hits like "Baby Love," "Stop! In the Name of Love," and "You Can't Hurry Love" dominated the charts, making The Supremes household names. As the 1970s rolled in, Diana Ross embarked on a solo career, and the rest is soul history!

5. Bryson Tiller - MGM Music Hall - May 30 - 31, 2024

After taking to the road early in 2023 for the first time in six years, R&B star Bryson Djuan Tiller is getting ready to head back out on the road with a new set of hit singles under his belt. With his debut album TRAPSOUL hitting the top of the Billboard Charts in 2015, Tiller quickly became hip hop's hottest new artist. After contemplating possible retirement he has continued to be active in the industry, 2022 saw him partner up with rapping legend Diddy for the hit 'Gotta Move On'. Don't miss the chance to see him live this year.
