Rocker Bruce Springsteen is returning to Broadway with his one man show in June, becoming the first major show in New York's theater district to take place since closing for more than a year because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The singer-songwriter will open his Springsteen on Broadway one man show on June 27 for a limited summer run until Sept 4, producers announced on Monday. Audience members must provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccinations to attend.

“I loved doing Springsteen on Broadway and I’m thrilled to have been asked to reprise the show as part of the reopening of Broadway,” Springsteen said in a statement.

Broadway shows have been shuttered since March 2020 because of the pandemic but many have recently announced reopening dates starting in August and September.

Most productions are still working out COVID-19 and masking protocols for cast, crew and audiences members but Springsteen's is thought to be the first to state that vaccinations will be mandatory for audiences.
