The Winter Garden is an unusual choice for this straight play since it has mostly housed large-scale musicals such as Funny Girl, Mame, Pacific Overtures, Cats and most recently Rocky, The Music Man, and the current tenant Back to the Future which closes on Jan. 5, 2025. The last non-musical to play the Winter Garden was Wolf Hall, the two-evening stage version of Hilary Mandel's expansive novel of Thomas Cromwell and his role in the ill-fated marriage of King Henry VIII to Anne Boelyn.
This announcement means only one previously announced spring Broadway production has yet to find a home or performance dates--the latest revival of David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross.
In other news: Billy Magnussen has had to drop out of Robert O'Hara's Shit. Meet. Fan. at MCC Theater for health reasons. He will be replaced by Tony nominee Michael Oberholtzer (Take Me Out) and the opening has been pushed back to Nov. 18.
