A Beautiful Noise premieres in Tulsa in February
The smash-hit musical, A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical, will premiere in Tulsa in February.
Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A Beautiful Noise is the uplifting true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became a chart-busting, show-stopping American rock icon.
With 120 million albums sold, a catalogue of classics like “America,” “Forever in Blue Jeans,” and “Sweet Caroline,” an induction into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, a Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award, and sold-out concerts around the world that made him bigger than Elvis, Neil Diamond’s story was made to shine on Broadway-and head out on the road across America.
“Some of my most thrilling nights have been while I was on tour, bringing my music to audiences across the world,” said Neil Diamond. “Having A Beautiful Noise go on tour is an honor, and I can’t wait for audiences across North America to experience this show. I hope they enjoy it as much as I have.”
Nick Fradiani plays ‘Neil Diamond – Then’ in the national tour, having played the role on Broadway since October 2023. He won the title of “American Idol” in 2015 and has since released his debut album “Hurricane” in 2016, featuring the hit single “Beautiful Life.”
“Past My Past,” Fradiani’s second solo album, was released in 2022. Joining Fradiani are Tony Nominee Robert Westenberg (Neil Diamond – Now), Hannah Jewel Kohn (Marcia Murphey), Lisa Reneé Pitts (Doctor), Michael Accardo (Bert Berns/ Kieve Diamond), Gene Weygandt (Fred Weintraub/ Tommy O’Rourke), Heidi Kettenring (Ellie Greenwich/ Rose Diamond) and Tiffany Tatreau (Jaye Posner).
Rounding out the company as “The Noise” are Tom Bottelsen, Joe Caskey, Cooper Clack, Chris Marsh Clark, Denver Dizon (Swing), Deirdre Dunkin, Rene Mirai Guyon (Swing), Ginger Hurley, Jer (Swing), Spencer Donavan Jones, Zoë Maloney (Swing), Ellen McGihon, Thabitha Moruthane, Sami Murphy (Swing), Ramsey Pack, Jeilani Rhone-Collins, Alec Michael Ryan (Swing), Nik Vlachos (Swing) and J’Kobe Wallace.
Like Jersey Boys and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical before it, A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical is an inspiring, exhilarating, energy-filled musical memoir that tells the untold true story of how America’s greatest hitmaker became a star, set to the songs that defined his career.
“Neil is one of the best live entertainers the world has ever seen,” said producer Ken Davenport. “In his fifty-year career, he’s performed for millions of fans around the globe.”
Producer Bob Gaudio said, “When Neil and I first started talking about making a musical using his music, I knew how daunting that would be. A Beautiful Noise tells Neil’s story honestly, with fantastic choreography, one of the best directors on Broadway guiding the entire production, and of course, Neil’s iconic songs.”
A Beautiful Noise makes its Tulsa premiere at the Tulsa PAC on February 17-22, 2026. Ticket prices start at $38.59. Additional ticket information is available at www.CelebrityAttractions.com/Tulsa.
