The show recently passed the 50-million mark in worldwide attendance, becoming the first American musical in history to achieve the feat.

These objects will join a rich collection of artifacts with Broadway origins, including costumes from the Broadway productions of “Rent,” “The King and I,” “Hello, Dolly!,” “Fiddler on the Roof,” “Cats,” “This Is the Army,” “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” “Mame” and” Lorelei.” Currently on view at the museum is “Dumbo the Flying Elephant” from Disneyland’s opening year (1955), and the museum holds Walt Disney’s pencil sketches of “Steamboat Willie,” an early iteration of Mickey Mouse.
