Leopoldstadt

Death of a Salesman Producer’s Picks
Wednesday, January 4, 7 pm ET

Hudson Theatre
141 West 44th Street
New York, NY

Give the gift of live theater for the holidays while supporting a life in the arts! Producer’s Picks tickets are donated by the producers so your entire ticket purchase goes to support the Entertainment Community Fund’s programs and services.

Olivier Award nominee Wendell Pierce and 2022 Tony nominee Sharon D Clarke reprise their roles as Willy and Linda Loman in a revival—told for the first time on Broadway—from the perspective of an African American family. A new cast of supporting actors join the production in New York, led by Tony winner André De Shields and Khris Davis. This powerful interpretation of Arthur Miller’s classic drama illuminates the dark underbelly of the American Dream and its elusive promise of equality and opportunity for all.

 

Funny Girl

Wednesday, February 15, 8 pm ET

August Wilson Theatre
245 West 52nd Street
New York, NY

This bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage. Everyone told her she'd never be a star, but then something funny happened—she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway.

Starring Lea Michele and featuring some of the most iconic songs in theatre history including “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star” and “People,” Michael Mayer’s bold new production marks the first time Funny Girl has returned to Broadway since its debut 58 years ago.

 

Leopoldstadt

Leopoldstadt Producer’s Picks
Wednesday, January 25, 7 pm ET

Longacre Theatre
220 West 48th Street
New York, NY

Set in Vienna, Leopoldstadt takes its title from the Jewish quarter. This passionate drama of love and endurance begins in the last days of 1899 and follows one extended family deep into the heart of the 20th Century. Full of his customary wit and beauty, Tom Stoppard’s latest work spans fifty years of time over two hours. With a cast of 38 and direction by Patrick Marber, Leopoldstadt must not be missed.
