14 Jan
Summary
- Jonathan Bailey and Ariana Grande may star in a revival.
- The musical is based on Georges Seurat's famous painting.
- A London production is slated for a 2027 summer opening.

Jonathan Bailey has fueled speculation about a revival of "Sunday in the Park With George," potentially starring alongside Ariana Grande. Bailey posted a photo of himself and Grande in front of Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatt," the artwork that inspired the Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine musical.
Reports indicate a revival is being planned for a summer 2027 opening at London's Barbican Theatre, with Marianne Elliott set to direct. The musical explores the life and art of Seurat, featuring characters based on those depicted in his iconic painting.
The original Broadway production starred Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters. The show has a history of notable revivals, including a 2017 Broadway run featuring Jake Gyllenhaal, and a 2020 London production that was postponed due to the pandemic.
