Chicago is the longest-running show now playing on Broadway.
Sebastián Yatra is a leading Colombian singer, songwriter, and musician who has left an indelible mark on global culture with his fusion of romantic ballads, Latin pop, and reggaeton.

With over 37.5 billion streams and 28 million monthly listeners on Spotify, his versatility as an artist is evident, defying easy categorization. Yatra’s influence extends beyond music; he has amassed over 63.8 million social media followers and actively engages in philanthropic endeavors. In 2024, he partnered with the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation to sponsor the “Prodigy Scholarship,” underscoring his commitment to musical education. His 78-date Dharma World Tour saw him headline sold-out venues across continents, showcasing his dynamic stage presence. Yatra’s performance of the Oscar-nominated song “Dos Oruguitas” at the 94th Academy Awards further cemented his status as a global music powerhouse. Through his music, philanthropy, and memorable performances, Sebastián Yatra continues to inspire and shape the Latin music scene, solidifying his role as a cultural icon.
“Getting to Broadway was something I had imagined but it seemed impossible and now that it is coming true in Chicago, which is such an iconic show, is something that fills me with great excitement,” said Sebastián Yatra. “I remember many years ago when I went to see Evita on Broadway and Ricky Martin was starring in it. It blew my mind to see a Latino on Broadway, also performing in English. This is a commitment that requires a lot of discipline and I can’t wait to learn a lot from the cast and crew,” he added.
