The hills are officially alive again.<\/p>\n
Nearly 30 years after its last Broadway revival, <\/span>The Sound of Music<\/span><\/em> is heading back to the Great White Way<\/a>\u00a0and, this time, Tony nominee Jasmine Amy Rogers will\u00a0tie on\u00a0Maria’s iconic apron.<\/span><\/p>\n Lincoln Center Theater has announced that Rodgers and Hammerstein’s beloved musical will return to the Vivian Beaumont Theater<\/a> for a limited 17-week engagement, with previews beginning on March 23, 2027, ahead of opening night on April 15. The production will be directed by Lear deBessonet, whose acclaimed revival of <\/span>Ragtime<\/span><\/em> recently swept the Tony Awards, with choreography by Christopher Gattelli (<\/span>Schmigadoon!<\/span><\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n Rogers, who earned a Tony nomination for <\/span>BOOP! The Musical<\/span><\/em>, will star as the novice whose arrival transforms the von Trapp family against the backdrop of Nazi-occupied Austria. Additional cast members haven’t been announced yet.<\/span><\/p>\n While many audiences know <\/span>The Sound of Music<\/span><\/em> through the beloved 1965 film starring Julie Andrews, deBessonet says she’s especially interested in the musical’s deeper themes. “It’s a story that is about an authoritarian regime encroaching, and it is a story in which we are holding both the epic and the personal,” she told <\/a><\/span>The New York Times<\/span><\/em><\/a>. “It has the story of a family that is dealing with grief and brokenness and needs to heal set against a very specific historical backdrop.”<\/span><\/p>\n The revival is the headliner for Lincoln Center Theater’s newly unveiled 2026-27 season<\/a>, which is stacked with high-profile productions. Also coming to Broadway this fall is the first-ever Broadway revival of Aaron Sorkin’s courtroom drama <\/span>A Few Good Men<\/span><\/em>, which will be directed by Tony winner Michael Arden.\u00a0<\/span>The West Wing<\/em>\u00a0star Bradley Whitford, who appeared in the play’s original Broadway production, and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes<\/a><\/em>\u00a0actor Tom Blyth will lead the cast when previews begin on Oct. 8, ahead of an Oct. 29 opening.<\/p>\n Off Broadway, Lincoln Center will revive August Wilson’s <\/span>Seven Guitars<\/span><\/em>, present the world premiere of Kimberly Belflower’s <\/span>Born in the Dirt<\/span><\/em>, welcome Matthew Rhys in the one-man show <\/span>Playing Burton<\/span><\/em>, and stage the already announced <\/span>The Whoopi Monologues<\/span><\/em> featuring Kerry Washington, Dominique Fishback, Kecia Lewis, Danielle Pinnock and Kara Young.<\/span><\/p>\n “Our second season is rooted in a simple belief: people are hungry for meaningful shared experiences,” deBessonet said in a statement. “We have curated a collection of shows that invite connection and conversation with the world around us.”<\/span><\/p>\n For Broadway fans, it’s shaping up to be a season of familiar favorites, star-powered casts and at least one chance to hear “Do-Re-Mi” in Lincoln Center again.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.timeout.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The hills are officially alive again.
