Seven Broadway hits are coming to the San Diego Civic Theatre starting in October, Broadway San Diego announced on Friday.

The 47th season of Broadway San Diego is set to kick off with the 2023 Tony Award-winning musical "Kimberly Akimbo" followed by "Back to the Future: The Musical."

Two of the shows have ties to America's Finest City. "Some Like It Hot" is based on the Marilyn Monroe movie that was filmed at the Hotel del Coronado, and the musical is directed and choreographed by San Diego native Casey Nicholaw. The musical comedy "Shucked" is directed by Jack O'Brien, who was the artistic director at The Old Globe for more than two decades.

β€œEach year, we have the great privilege of presenting the best in national touring Broadway shows in San Diego and this year is no exception,” Vanessa Davis, general manager of Broadway San Diego, said in a news release. β€œWith much of our season currently playing on Broadway or new shows just beginning their national tours, the distance between Broadway and San Diego is now closer than ever.”
