Patti LuPone, Stephen Sondheim, John Weidman, et al. Set for Roundabout’s Marquee Lighting of Stephen Sondheim Theatre

Stephen Sondheim will be joined by longtime collaborators Patti LuPone and John Weidman, as well as Tom Tuft, Chairman of Roundabout Theatre Company’s Board of Directors, as the lights of the Roundabout’s newly dedicated Stephen Sondheim Theatre marquee are lit for the first time on Wednesday, September 15 at 6:30pm.

The event will take place directly in front of the Broadway theater’s marquee at 124 West 43rd Street. The first 50 people in line for the event will receive a complimentary copy of the recently released Original Broadway Cast Recording of Sondheim on Sondheim, donated by PS Classics.

The Roundabout currently has a long-term lease on the theater, previously known as the Henry Miller’s. The original theater was built in 1918, and underwent a massive reconstruction from The Durst Organization and Bank of America, which was completed in May 2009. It is the first new Broadway theater built in over a decade and sits behind the preserved and restored neo-Georgian façade of the original.

The first production to play the newly dedicated space will be The Pee-wee Herman Show, which is not a Roundabout production.
