Columbia Records put out a two-disc soundtrack of Springsteen On Broadway and a filmed version of the show is on Netflix.
In the show, Springsteen performs 15 songs — including My Hometown, Thunder Road, and Born In The USA — and tells stories about growing up in New Jersey.
Some of the stories will be familiar to readers of his autobiography, and he even reads from it. His wife, Patti Scialfa, accompanies him for Brilliant Disguise.
Audience members will be required to provide proof of full Covid-19 vaccination in order to enter the theatre.
