Sutton Foster’s Tour Rises While Hugh Jackman Struggles To Sell $20 Tickets

Sutton Foster is hitting all the right notes, on and off the stage.

The Broadway star's solo tour, "Sutton in Concert," is nearly sold out across the country, with fans rushing to secure tickets months in advance. The tour, which launched July 14 in Chicago as part of the Ravinia Festival, features select dates with fellow Broadway powerhouse Kelli O'Hara.

Upcoming shows in Lenox, Massachusetts, and Westhampton Beach, New York, are already sold out, and only a handful of tickets remain for later performances in Park City, Utah; York, Pennsylvania; and Germantown, Tennessee.

The red-hot success of Sutton Foster's tour comes as a stark contrast to her boyfriend Hugh Jackman's own solo endeavor.

The "X-Men" star is preparing to take the stage at New York's iconic Radio City Music Hall on July 18 and 19, but ticket prices have plummeted to as low as $20 on resale platforms, raising eyebrows over lagging demand.

The couple's relationship made headlines earlier this year after it was confirmed that Foster and Jackman, who co-starred in "The Music Man" on Broadway, were romantically involved. Their connection reportedly blossomed while Jackman was still married to Deborra-Lee Furness, prompting speculation and accusations of an emotional affair.

While Jackman's team maintains there was no physical infidelity, sources close to Furness say she felt deeply betrayed.

Furness officially filed for divorce in May, nearly two years after announcing her separation from Jackman. The divorce was finalized on June 23.

Meanwhile, Foster is still in the midst of her divorce. The "Younger" actress filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, in October 2024 after nearly a decade of marriage.

According to court documents, there have been no significant updates since December, when Griffin filed a counterclaim in response to her complaint.

Despite the swirling controversy and public scrutiny, Foster and Jackman are said to be "very happy" and focused on the future, not the past.

"They are looking to move forward while everyone else focuses on going backward and rehashing the past," a source told Daily Mail. "Sutton is very much in love with Hugh… even with people chirping about her divorce and his divorce and how they got together and any other so-called 'controversy.'"

The insider added that the pair is staying "far away from the noise," focusing instead on their shared passion for the arts and maintaining a strong bond behind the scenes.

"They just don't want to welcome any unwanted or needed drama," the source said. "They want to be happy, and that is what they are. Very happy right now. No more tears. They are chasing smiles and happiness."

While the couple hasn't been seen publicly since a May outing in New York, rumors have swirled that Foster has moved into Jackman and Furness' former marital home, a $21 million penthouse in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood.

While Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster appear to be moving forward with their new relationship, fans can't help but remember what Jackman's ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, said after the news broke. As The Blast reported, her words suggest there may be more heartbreak behind their split than previously revealed.

Despite the couple's initially amicable tone when announcing their separation, Furness recently shared a cryptic and emotionally charged statement that appeared to hint at betrayal and unresolved pain. Referring to her divorce as a "traumatic journey of betrayal," the 68-year-old actress described the end of her nearly 30-year marriage to Jackman as "a profound wound that cuts deep."

"It can hurt, but in the long run, returning to yourself and living within your own integrity, values, and boundaries is liberation and freedom," she wrote.

Furness went on to reflect on the nature of relationships and personal growth, noting that her experience taught her that none of it is personal, but rather part of a larger journey toward healing.

"I believe that the relationships in our lives are not random," she shared. "We are drawn to people, we invite them in, in order to learn our lessons and to recognize and heal the broken parts of ourselves… I remain grateful."

Furness has since maintained a relatively low profile while Jackman and Foster continue to take the stage.
