January may be all about "out with the old, in with the new," but we're still seriously sad to see a wonderful bunch of Broadway shows go! You only have a few more weeks to catch Cinderella, Pippin, Side Show, Once, This is Our Youth, The Real Thing, Motown and Rock of Ages. Get your tickets before these shows say goodbye to the Great White Way for good!
Cinderella
Closing January 3 at the Broadway Theatre
Is it almost midnight? Because this ball is coming to an end. Rodgers and Hammerstein's take on the classic fairy tale has been delighting audiences for over 750 performances, and everyone's favorite tale of glass slippers, wicked stepmothers and happily-ever-afters will close out with stage and screen star Keke Palmer as Ella, and Real Housewives' Nene Leakes as Madame.

Pippin
Closing January 4 at the Music Box Theatre
There are only a few more weeks of magic to do, so make some time to see the acrobats and contortionists of this circus-inspired, Tony-winning musical revival. Join young prince Pippin as he goes on his dangerous journey, encouraged by a mysterious group of performers led by a Leading Player. Throwing swords, unicycles, a flying trapeze and Stephen Schwartz tunes: need we say more? Click for tickets!
Side Show
Closing January 4 at the St. James Theatre
We were going to make an "I Will Never Leave You" joke but let's be real, we're just too broken up about this brilliant reimagined revival closing to make it work. Erin Davie and Emily Padgett are blowing the roof off the St. James Theatre as conjoined twins Violet and Daisy Hilton, searching for love (and loving one another) as they rise from side show attractions to stars…it makes us well up just thinking about it.

Once
Closing January 4 at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre
Sigh–the lights are coming on in Broadway's favorite music-filled Irish pub. This infectious, romantic, Tony-winning musical stars some of the finest actor-musicians on Broadway, so come for the stunning music (including Oscar-winning "Falling Slowly"), but stay for the bittersweet love story. You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here (even though we know you want to!). Click for tickets!
This Is Our Youth
Closing January 4 at the Cort Theatre
Even though we knew our time with this limited engagement was well, limited, it's always a heartbreaker to see a good thing come to an end (much like youth, are we right?). But don't worry, you still have time to catch this incredible trio of Broadway newcomers—Michael Cera, Kieran Culkin and Tavi Gevinson—as a trio of spoiled, angsty New York teens adrift in the 1980s. Click for tickets!
The Real Thing
Closing January 4 at the American Airlines Theatre
Let us lay this one out for you: Maggie Gyllenhaal, Ewan McGregor and Cynthia Nixon are burning up a Broadway stage right now, together, in a play by Tom Stoppard. If you haven't seen it yet, what are you waiting for? This A-list love triangle is wrapping up its limited engagement in just a few weeks, so break out that holiday check from Grammy and get real. Click for tickets!
Motown the Musical
Closing January 18 at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre
Did you know that time travel has been invented, and for only the cost of a Broadway ticket? Head down to Motown the Musical and go back to the 1960s, when music visionary Berry Gordy changed the course of cultural history. Gordy launched the careers of Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye and so many more. Click for tickets!
Rock of Ages
Closing January 18 at the Helen Hayes Theatre
Get out those lighters—it's time for the hardest rockin' show on Broadway to play its last power ballad. Head back to the Sunset Strip one last time, into a club where long-haired rockers rule, '80s hits never stop and Lycra outfits are always in full force. We may have to say goodbye, but we will never, ever stop believing. Click for tickets!
