Broadway's The Mystery of Edwin Drood to Now Open November 13

By Dan Bacalzo • Aug 15, 2012 • New York City
The Roundabout Theatre Company has adjusted the opening date for its Broadway production of The Mystery of Edwin Drood, to be presented at Studio 54. Previews will still begin October 19, but the production will now open on November 13 (instead of the previously reported November 29).

Featuring book, music, and lyrics by Rupert Holmes, the musical murder mystery is based on an unfinished novel by Charles Dickens. In this show, everyone on stage is a suspect in the murder of young Edwin Drood--and it's up to the audience to choose the killer. Scott Ellis will direct the production, with choreography by Warren Carlyle and musical direction by Paul Gemignani.

The full company includes Stephanie J. Block (Edwin Drood), Will Chase (John Jasper), Gregg Edelman (Reverend Mr. Crisparkle), Jim Norton (Chairman) and Chita Rivera (Princess Puffer) with Andy Karl (Neville Landless), Jessie Mueller (Helena Landless), Betsy Wolfe (Rosa Bud), Nicholas Barasch (Deputy), Peter Benson (Bazzard), Robert Creighton (Durdles), Alison Cimmet, Nick Corley, Janine DiVita, Jenifer Foote, Justin Greer, Shannon Lewis, Spencer Plachy, Kiira Schmidt, Eric Sciotto, Jim Walton, and Cody Williams.

The design team includes Anna Louizos (sets), William Ivey Long (costumes), Brian Nason (lighting) and Tony Meola (sound).
