TV: Back to Punxsutawney- Andy Karl Gets Ready to Bring GROUNDHOG DAY to Broadway!
|
Fresh from London's Old Vic, Andy Karl is back in New York, getting ready to bring Phil Connors to Broadway. GROUNDHOG DAY will begin previews on Thursday, March 16, 2017 at Broadway's August Wilson Theatre (245 West 52nd Street) and open, as previously announced, on Monday, April 17.
GROUNDHOG DAY is the story of Phil Connors, a cynical Pittsburgh TV weatherman who is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in Punxsutawney, PA, when he finds himself caught in a time loop, forced to repeat the same day again and again...and again. As each day plays out exactly the same as before Phil becomes increasingly despondent, but is there a lesson to be learned through his experiences, will he ever unlock the secret and break the cycle?
BroadwayWorld recently caught up with Karl to chat about the incoming production. Catch up below!
