The 1988 Bette Midler / Barbara Hershey movie about a 30-year friendship gets a Broadway musical, with songs by David Friedman and book by Iris Rainer Dart (who wrote the original novel). Stafford Arima directs at the Nederlander Theatre. Whether you remember the wind-beneath-my-wings emotional whiplash or you’re encountering it fresh, the show leans hard into the source material’s earnestness. Lucky Seat digital lottery is the path to sub-$50 seats. Bring tissues; the Nederlander concession stand will not stock them.
