More Theatre News: Bridges Not Too Far for Broadway

Eastwood and Streep in The Bridges of Madison County

Of course there's more theater news today: the musical version of The Bridges of Madison County will definitely be moving to Broadway. (You know, the movie with Meryl Streep and Clint Eastwood mooning over each other.) The musical which features a score by Jason Robert Brown (13, The Last  Five Years) and a book by Marsha Norman (Night, Mother, The Secret Garden) will begin previews at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theater on Jan. 13, 2014 with an opening in mid-February. Tony winner Bartlett Sher (South Pacific) directs. The show is scheduled to play the Williamstown Theater Festival this summer Aug. 1-18.
