Posted: 4/20/17 at 5:15pm

This deserves its own thread!! Such a relief.

 

The producers of the hit Broadway revival of New York City Center’s production Sunday in the Park with George starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Annaleigh Ashford, announced today that the show will live on past its critically acclaimed, sold-out limited engagement, with a cast album to be released this summer by Warner Music Group.

The producers also announced today that Sunday in the Park with George has recouped its entire investment in just 56 performances, making it the first show of the 2016-2017 season to do so.

Why would a press release emerge on ATC before any of the news sites...?

What amazing news. I was really getting worried, but I'm so happy about this. Jake's Putting it Together is amazing and I can't wait to have that preserved. Also, Move On is going to have to be on repeat.

Great news!  I would also love for there to be a video recording of this, but I guess that's too much to ask for (or is it?).

ATC's press release seems to be the only one mentioning a June release. The others are saying on a summer date to be announced.

AMAZING news!! I can't wait. And only 56 performances?? That insanely fast. 

Congrats to the cast, crew, producers, Sondheim & Lapine AND ATG on an incredibly successful first production at the Hudson.

Seeing this the Saturday after it opened (from the first row) back in February will definitely be a highlight of the year for me... so I'm happy to hear that there will be a recording to help me relive it.  I too was hoping for a video recording of it, particularly since it recouped - you would think they'd want this to get a wider viewing than the limited number of us who were able to get into see it

I had been thinking this for awhile, as I won't get to see it live. This seemed like the perfect candidate for a BroadwayHD live stream.

Based on Ashley Park's Instagram story yesterday, seems it was recorded for the Lincoln Center archives.

Has a musical in recent times ever recouped this fast? Crazy! Does anyone know the capital expenses that they were trying to earn back? If so, we can estimate the average weekly nut. 


"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022) "Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009) "Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000
