About the Show

A Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Musical is “a majestic spectacle of dazzling musical numbers” (Variety), featuring Armstrong’s timeless hits like “What a Wonderful World” and “When You’re Smiling,” performed by a large, dynamic cast.

As Louis Armstrong, Tony Award winner “James Monroe Iglehart has every detail perfectly tuned” (The New York Times), and Time Out New York proclaims, “the king has arrived on Broadway!”

This full-scale musical features a rich tapestry of characters, including the extraordinary women who helped shape his remarkable life and career — from New Orleans to worldwide fame.

Don’t miss this “★★★★ tribute to one of the true 20th-century jazz greats” (New York Stage Review), filled with vibrant dance numbers, stunning sets, and unforgettable performances. “You will walk out saying ‘What a wonderful world!’ Go and enjoy!” (Amsterdam News).
