Roundabout Announces 2026-27 Broadway Season

Roundabout Theatre Company is set to launch its 2026-2027 season, with Broadway productions commencing in September 2026. The season opener on Broadway will be a revival of Molière's "The Imaginary Invalid," adapted by and starring Bill Irwin. This marks the first season under the direction of incoming artistic director Christopher Ashley, who succeeds Scott Ellis.

The upcoming season will feature a diverse slate, including two world premieres: "Mix and Master" and "The Grief Eater Near North Bender." Additionally, audiences can anticipate three revivals and two musicals, with notable productions such as a revival of "The Full Monty" directed by Leigh Silverman. Casting for most productions is still to be announced, though Kara Young and Ruben Santiago-Hudson are slated to star.

Beyond Broadway, Roundabout's Off-Broadway offerings include "The Heart," a production with music and lyrics by Anne Eisendrath and Ian Eisendrath, who is also a producer for the Oscar-winning film "Golden." Ashley described the season as balancing classic and urgent works, highlighting new plays alongside familiar favorites and an entertaining musical.
