When the fickle princess (Lumley) decides she’s grown weary of Elomire’s royal theatre troupe, he and Valere are left fighting for survival as art squares off with ego in a literary showdown for the ages. This production comes to Broadway direct from London, where it will play a limited engagement this summer.

La Cage aux Folles, the splashy, high-kicking musical comedy, comes to Broadway this spring in a gloriously reconceived production that took London by storm. La Cage features Jerry Herman’s Tony Award-winning score, with such fabulous songs as "I Am What I Am," "The Best of Times" and "Song on the Sand," and a Tony Award-winning book by Harvey Fierstein.

A Life in the Theatre was inspired by those earlier days…an inside look into the world of theatre told from the backstage viewpoint of two actors in a repertory company: Robert, an older, experienced performer and John, a newcomer to the stage. John at first welcomes Robert’s guidance, but soon overshadows his mentor. A Life in the Theatre is Mamet's intimate and hilarious love letter to the theatre, where he gently ridicules the juxtaposition between the backstage life of actors and what those same actors create on stage. The play gives a glimpse into the complex relationship that develops as the torch is passed from one generation to the next - a passing that wavers from love and mutual respect to impatience and resentment. Performances: Tues 7:00 pm, Wed 2:00 pm, Wed 7:00 pm, Th 8:00 pm, Fri 8:00 pm, Sat 2:00 pm, Sat 8:00 pm, Sun 3:00 pm Previews begin 09/21/10, Opening 10/12/10 Added Performance: Monday - November 22 @ 8pm, Monday - December 20 @ 8pm, Sunday - December 26 @ 7:30pm, Monday - December 27 @ 8pm Time Change: Tuesday - September 21 @ 8pm, Tuesday - September 28 @ 8pm, Tuesday - October 5 @ 8pm No Performance: Thursday - November 25 @ 8pm, Friday - December 24 @ 8pm, Saturday - December 25 @ 2pm, Friday - December 31 @ 8pm The Lion King Musical, Broadway Tickets at Ticketmaster Minskoff Theatre, 200 West 45th Street (Between Broadway and 8th Avenue) Running Time: 2 hours 45 minutes, with one intermission Performances: Wed 2:00 pm, Wed 8:00 pm, Th 8:00 pm, Fri 8:00 pm, Sat 2:00 pm, Sat 8:00 pm, Sun 1:00 pm, Sun 6:30 pm Open Ended Run A Little Night Music Musical, Broadway Tickets at Telecharge Walter Kerr Theatre, 219 West 48th Street (Between Broadway & 8th Avenue) Running Time: 2 hours 40 minutes, including one 15 minute intermission Performances: Tues 8:00 pm, Wed 8:00 pm, Th 8:00 pm, Fri 8:00 pm, Sat 2:00 pm, Sat 8:00 pm, Sun 3:00 pm Open Ended Run Lombardi Play, Broadway Tickets at Telecharge Circle in the Square, 1633 Broadway (Between Broadway and 8th Avenue - at 50th Street) Lombardi, a new American play from Academy Award-winning playwright Eric Simonson, is based on the best-selling Vince Lombardi biography “When Pride Still Mattered”, by Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Maraniss. Sport produces great human drama and there is no greater sports icon to bring to theatrical life than a man recognized not only as one of the greatest coaches of all time, but one of the most compelling and oft-quoted individuals in American pop culture in the 20th century. Though football’s Super Bowl trophy is named for him, so few know the real story of Vince Lombardi the man – his inspiration, his passion, and ability to drive people to achieve what they never thought possible. In a time when people continue to look for shortcuts to success, his story demonstrates that hard work, discipline, respect and time are the crucial elements to victory.

Jimmy Porter is angry. Overeducated and underemployed, he is stuck in a dead-end job. His wife won't talk to him. His best friend is always by her side. When her upper-crust friend shows up unexpectedly, Jimmy reaches the breaking point. John Osborne's ground-breaking story of a working-class hero fighting for his wife's love is as resonant now as it was in 1956, when Kenneth Tynan wrote "I could not love anyone who did not wish to see LOOK BACK IN ANGER."

Like the book, this funny and poignant theatrical event uses clothing and accessories and the memories they trigger to tell stories that all women can relate to. “The Vagina Monologues without the vaginas,” is how the Ephrons describe Love, Loss, and I Wore, while syndicated columnist Liz Smith simply raves, “This is an evening that goes directly to the heart, soul and vanity of every woman, young or old.” Directed by Karen Carpenter, the production will feature three different (5-member) all-star casts who will perform the piece in four-week cycles.
