Roundabout Theatre Company (Artistic Director, Todd Haimes) is pleased to announce the huge event to celebrate the box office opening at Broadway's new Henry Miller's Theatre (124 West 43rd Street) will be a live Twitter event.

Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) presents the first new Broadway production of Bye Bye Birdie, after a 48 year absence, as the inaugural production of the new Henry Miller's Theatre (124 West 43rd Street) beginning Thursday, September 10th, 2009 with an official opening on Thursday, October 15th, 2009.

Roundabout Theatre Company's Broadway production of Bye Bye Birdie officially opens tomorrow, Thursday, October 15th.

There is no doubt that Bye Bye Birdie is one of this season's most highly anticipated shows. With an all star cast that includes John Stamos and Gina Gershon, and the cache of being one of the most popular musicals of all time, critics and audience members alike are eager to see what this revival will bring--48 years after it last left Broadway. As the New York Times points out in a special Birdie feature today, the show is not an easy revival, and has had a string of productions starring major players (such as Tommy Tune and Ann Reinking in the 1991 road show) that received a lukewarm reception.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, October 14th, Bye Bye Birdie's John Stamos will appear on ABC's 'Rachael Ray Show.' Tune in to watch John's new dressing room get a makeover by designer Carter Oosterhouse.

The New York Times reports that Bye Bye Birdie star Nolan Gerard Funk, who plays the title character in the new revival of the musical, missed Friday's performance because he has tonsillitis.
