\n\tA FEW GOOD MEN<\/em><\/strong>
Performances Begin: October 8, 2026
Opening Night: October 29, 2026
13 weeks only on Broadway at The Vivian Beaumont Theater<\/p>\n\n\tBefore The West Wing <\/em>and The Social Network<\/em>, Aaron Sorkin left an indelible mark on American storytelling with the breakout 1989 hit play A Few Good Men<\/em>. This fall, the explosive courtroom drama returns to Broadway in a bold new production\u2014sharp, thrilling, and relevant as ever.<\/p>\n\n\tMilitary lawyer Daniel Kaffee (Blyth) is known for his wit, charm, and uncanny talent for closing cases before they ever get to trial. When assigned to defend two young Marines accused of murder, his typical strategy is upended by Lt. Commander JoAnne Galloway, a sharp attorney determined to prove the men\u2019s innocence. But the evidence soon leads them to a cover-up, putting them on a collision course with the entire chain of command.<\/p>\n
\n\tStarring Emmy Award winner Bradley Whitford (The West Wing<\/em>) and Tom Blyth (The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes<\/em>), and directed by six-time Tony Award winner Michael Arden (Maybe Happy Ending<\/em>), A Few Good Men<\/em> shows the cost of following your conscience in a system built on secrecy and obedience\u2014and asks us to choose the truth anyway. Gripping, high-stakes, and ultimately hopeful, it reminds us that a country\u2019s ideals are only as strong as our willingness to stand behind them.<\/p>\n\n\tTHE SOUND OF MUSIC
<\/em><\/strong>Performances Begin: March 23, 2027
Opening Night: April 15, 2027
17 weeks only on Broadway at The Vivian Beaumont Theater<\/p>\n\n\tFor the first time in nearly three decades, The Sound of Music<\/em> returns to Broadway, directed by three-time Tony Award nominee Lear deBessonet, Lincoln Center Theater\u2019s Kewsong Lee Artistic Director (Ragtime, Into the Woods<\/em>), and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli.

Opening Night: July 13, 2026
8 weeks only Off Broadway at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater<\/p>\n\n\tAs previously announced, Lincoln Center Theater is proud to present a reimagining of Whoopi Goldberg\u2019s iconic show.

Now, the trailblazing work returns, reimagined for a new generation led by a remarkable ensemble of 5 women bringing Goldberg\u2019s unforgettable characters back to the stage. Funny, vivid, and deeply human, these nuanced portraits feel as fresh and irresistible today as they were over 40 years ago.<\/p>\n

\n\tBORN IN THE DIRT
<\/em><\/strong>Performances Begin: April 14, 2027
Opening Night: May 6, 2027
10 weeks only Off Broadway at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater<\/p>\n\n\tFrom the Tony-nominated writer and director of John Proctor is the Villain<\/em> comes another stunningly fresh, vividly drawn portrait of the American South. Kimberly Belflower\u2019s Born in Dirt <\/em>premieres at Lincoln Center Theater, directed by Danya Taymor.<\/p>\n\n\tAll Maddy Grace has ever wanted was to get out of her tiny Southern hometown. But when her life in L.A. falls apart, she finds herself reluctantly working at the town\u2019s most famous attraction \u2013 a whimsical \u201chospital\u201d that produces hand-sewn dolls for collectors all over the world. But when Maddy Grace sets out to make a documentary about the women behind the dolls, she\u2019ll find there\u2019s more to their story \u2013 and to her own \u2013 than she ever imagined.<\/p>\n
\n\tWith the same masterful blend of wit, insight, and empathy that made John Proctor<\/em> a runaway hit, Born in the Dirt <\/em>is a wickedly funny, vibrantly human new play about the meaning of art, community, and the complicated business of making something that lasts.<\/p>\n\n\tPLAYING BURTON
