Musicals were made to take over Corrientes Avenue, but in 2025 there are so many coming that you will also find them in other big theaters. We tell you about the musicals in Buenos Aires that you can already see and those that are about to be confirmed so that you can start preparing your agenda (and your wallet). Discover them, schedule them and enjoy them!
1. The Funeral of the Objects
El Funeral de los Objetos tells the story of a group of strangers, each with their own peculiarities or “little problems”, who meet after finding a curious advertisement in a subway brochure. In its fourth season, this is one of the musicals in Buenos Aires that has already established itself as one of the best theatrical proposals in Buenos Aires for 2025.
📍Paseo La Plaza – 1660 Corrientes Av.
📅 Tuesdays 20:30hs
2. Paquito…La Cabeza Contra El Suelo (Paquito…Head to the Floor)
Paquito is much more than the story of Paco Jaumandreu, Evita‘s couturier and personal friend. First, it has incredible actors for their portrayal, obviously, but also for making you live the story of their characters in such a profound and simple way at the same time. Paco Jaumendreu had an intense and interesting life where characters of the time, men and women, who were relevant, and others who should have been and were not, intersect. Paquito…la cabeza contra el Suelo opens your eyes to a time you didn’t live and builds with that a great little musical.
📍Teatro Metropolitan Av. Corrientes 1343
📅 Thursdays 8pm.
3. The Little Prince
The Little Prince, an endearing story we all know, is perfect to share with children and nieces and nephews. If you do not know what to do in summer with your children, this is a great experience to share with the family: the magical journey of the little prince, his encounters and his love for his rose come to life under the direction of Juan Carlos Baglietto.
Teatro Ópera 📍Av. Corrientes 860
4. Rent
If you didn’t see Rent last year, you can’t miss this 2025: stunning staging, live music and a story that knows no time and reflects the struggle of youth to live by its own rules, no age. Rent is one of the greatest musicals in the history of this type of theater and you have it here, in the middle of Corrientes Avenue. One of the must-see musicals in Buenos Aires.
Teatro Ópera 📍860 Corrientes Ave.
5. Anastasia
The musical Anastasia is scheduled to hit the stages of Buenos Aires in 2025, transporting you on a fascinating adventure from Russia to Paris. With a mix of history, romance and unforgettable melodies such as “Journey to the Past”, this production may be one of the newest productions on Corrientes Avenue.
📍Theater To Be Confirmed
6. Billy Elliot
The musical Billy Elliot has already performed in London and New York and will do the same in Buenos Aires in 2025. If you have never seen the movie, it tells the story of a boy who fights for his dream of becoming a dancer, defying the expectations of his family and environment. Billy Elliot promises to be one of the favorite musicals of the season in Buenos Aires.
📍Theater to be confirmed
7. The Little Mermaid
In 2025, The Little Mermaid will be immersed in the stages of Buenos Aires, bringing with it all the magic and charm of the Disney classic. With songs you know as “Part of your World” and “Under the Sea”, this theatrical adaptation will dazzle you with its spectacular scenery and special effects, making it an unforgettable experience for both children and adults who grew up with this story.
📍Gran Rex Theater- Corrientes 857
8. Pretty Woman
Pretty Woman, Hollywood’s synonym for romance, makes the leap to the Buenos Aires stage in 2025. With a theatrical adaptation that keeps the spirit of the movie, the musical offers a touching and fun experience, combining a vibrant staging with songs that will make you relive the magic of this unforgettable love story.
Teatro Astral📍Corrientes 1639
9. Free Stone
Libre Piedra is a musical about a group of young people in the 90s who live together in an abandoned theater that they transform into a living space of creativity despite the refusal of its new owner. In this off-stage musical with young actors you will meet passionate characters, musicians, painters, all in search of their path and their dreams, while dealing with the lack of money and the problems of their own lives. With emotionally charged dialogues, iconic national rock songs and moments of humor, this play invites you to meet a new generation of musical theater actors.
Complejo Teatro Itaca📍Humahuaca 4027
10. Ana es Luz, a musical inspired by the life of Cris Miro.
Ana es Luz is a musical inspired by the life of Cris Miro, the first trans vedette in Argentina. Cris Miró was an iconic figure of the 90’s culture in Argentina and transcended until today because she broke barriers in the show business. The premiere date of this new musical in Buenos Aires this 2025 is May.
Teatro Regina📍Corrientes 1639
11. The Hunger
Great musicals are not necessarily on Corrientes Avenue. I discovered El Hambre, a musical about a traveling theater company that struggles to stay on its feet, taking its float full of failures from town to town. The Hunger is a comedy that finds the comic in the tragic and gracefully transforms it into one of the 2025 musicals you have to add to your agenda.
