Center Stage Records has released the original London cast recording of Mandela – A New Musical, recorded live at the Young Vic, is now available on all digital platforms.

To paraphrase Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, when Mandela is good, it’s very, very good, and when it’s bad, it’s almost unwatchable.

The world premiere musical Mandela has released all new photos and video from the rehearsal room, featuring a first glimpse and early listen of the soaring new musical ahead of its opening at the Young Vic Theatre. 

American Repertory Theater's 2023 Gala will honor departing Harvard University President Lawrence S. Bacow MPP ’76, JD ’76, PhD ’78 and Adele Fleet Bacow for their inspiring impact on the arts at Harvard and beyond. The Harvard campus location of the May 8 event will be announced at a future date.

Nominations have been announced for the first-ever Children's and Family Emmy Awards and some familiar names are among the honorees.

Prior to its world premiere at the Young Vic in November, Mandela, the soaring new musical infused with the rhythms of South Africa begins rehearsals in London. Check out all new rehearsal photos here!
