Matthew James Thomas (Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark), Tony Award winner Andrea Martin, Patina Miller (Sister Act), Terrence Mann (Les Miserables), Charlotte d’Amboise (A Chorus Line), and Rachel Bay Jones (Hair) will reprise their roles from American Repertory Theater’s Diane Paulus-directed production of Pippin on Broadway this spring. Previews will begin on March 23, with an April 25 opening at Broadway’s Music Box Theatre.

Pippin features music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Godspell) and a book by Roger O. Hirson (Walking Happy). Its original Broadway production opened at the Imperial Theatre (next door to the Music Box) on October 18, 1972, and ran just under 2000 performances before closing in 1977. Schwartz’s Tony nominated score features the classic showtunes “Magic To Do,” “Corner of the Sky,” and “Morning Glow.”

The Broadway cast will also feature Erik Altemus as Lewis, Gregory Arsenal, Andrew Cekala, Lolita Costet, Colin Cunliffe, Andrew Fitch, Orion Griffiths, Viktoria Grimmy, Olga Karmansky, Bethany Moore, Brad Musgrove, Stephanie Pope, Philip Rosenberg, Yannick Thomas, Molly Tynes, and Anthony Wayne.

The design team includes Tony Award winner Scott Pask (scenic design), Dominique Lemieux (costume design), Tony Award winner Kenneth Posner (lighting design), and Tony Award winner Clive Goodwin (sound design).
