Crossing the pond on the heels of its Olivier Award-winning, sensational hit run in London’s West End, the visionary new production of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s landmark American musical, Company, directed by two-time Tony Award winner Marianne Elliott, will open on Broadway this spring.

The production will star Tony and Grammy Award winner Katrina Lenk (The Band’s Visit, Indecent, ) as Bobbie, while two-time Tony Award and two-time Grammy Award winner Patti LuPone (War Paint, Gypsy) will reprise her unforgettable, Olivier Award-winning turn as Joanne.

The quintessential musical comedy about the search for love and cocktails in the Big Apple is turned on its head in Elliott’s revelatory staging, in which musical theater’s most iconic bachelor becomes a bachelorette. At Bobbie’s (Lenk) 35th birthday party, all her friends are wondering why isn’t she married? Why can’t she find the right man? And, why can’t she settle down and have a family? This whip-smart musical, given a game-changing makeover for a modern-day Manhattan, features some of Sondheim’s best-loved songs, including “Company,” “You Could Drive a Person Crazy,” “The Ladies Who Lunch,” “Side by Side,” and the iconic “Being Alive.”

Company will begin performances on Broadway at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre on Monday, March 2 with an official opening night set for Sunday, March 22 (Stephen Sondheim’s 90th birthday).
