Theatrical Duo Lowy and Vaughan-Barratt Aim to Bring Acclaimed Plays to Broadway
3 Oct
Summary
- Producers Lowy and Vaughan-Barratt developing Broadway transfers of acclaimed West End shows
- Aligning busy schedules of A-list actors like Cate Blanchett, Emma Corrin, and Bryan Cranston
- Upcoming productions include Chekhov's "The Seagull" and Arthur Miller's "All My Sons"
As of October 3rd, 2025, theatrical producers Benjamin Lowy and Emily Vaughan-Barratt of Wessex Grove are actively working to transfer several acclaimed West End productions to Broadway. The duo is developing a Broadway run for the Thomas Ostermeier-directed adaptation of Chekhov's "The Seagull," which featured a star-studded cast including Cate Blanchett, Emma Corrin, Kodi Smith-McPhee, and Tom Burke. The show was a critical sensation in London earlier this year, and Lowy and Vaughan-Barratt hope to bring it to New York in Spring 2027, though they acknowledge the challenge of aligning the busy schedules of the ensemble.
In addition, Wessex Grove is preparing to stage a revival of Arthur Miller's "All My Sons" at London's Wyndham's Theatre, directed by Ivo van Hove and starring Bryan Cranston, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Paapa Essiedu, Tom Glynn-Carney, and Hayley Squires. The producers are eager to potentially transfer this production to Broadway as well, building on Cranston's previous success with van Hove's work.
Lowy and Vaughan-Barratt have established themselves as a formidable force in the West End, with a track record of developing and transferring acclaimed plays, including Nick Payne's "Constellations" and Simon Stephens' "Vanya." They are now focused on expanding their reach to Broadway, navigating the complex schedules of top-tier actors to bring these high-profile productions to New York audiences.
