Steven Baruch, Marc Routh, Richard Frankel and Tom Viertel are pleased to announce that they are producing PRINCE OF BROADWAY, the new musical celebrating legendary Broadway director and producer Harold “Hal” Prince. The production is directed by 21-time Tony Award winner Harold Prince, co-directed and choreographed by 5-time Tony Award winner Susan Stroman, and features a book by Tony Award nominee David Thompson.

PRINCE OF BROADWAY will open on Broadway in the Fall of 2013.

“We are honored, thrilled and excited to be producing PRINCE OF BROADWAY. Hal Prince has the most important legacy in the American theatre and he continues to create great work for the stage.  Hal and his creative team have completed an extraordinary new musical, which we want to give the best possible Broadway production,” said Steven Baruch on behalf of the producing team.

“After reviewing everything ranging from the schedules of the creative team, theatre availability, advance group sales needs, among many other elements, we have determined that the optimum time for the show to open on Broadway would be the Fall of 2013.”

Celebrating one of the most influential and successful careers in the American theatre of the past 60 years, PRINCE OF BROADWAY will look at the circumstances and fortune, both good and bad, that led to Hal Prince creating some of the most enduring and beloved theatre of all time, including The Pajama Game, West Side Story, Fiorello!, Fiddler on the Roof, Cabaret, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, Evita, and The Phantom of the Opera, the longest-running show in Broadway history.
