Direct from its sold-out, award-winning downtown run, Harmony, a New York Times Critic’s Pick, begins performances on Broadway October 18th!
Harmony features an original score by the legendary Tony, Grammy and Emmy Award winner Barry Manilow, with lyrics and book by Drama Desk Award Winner, Bruce Sussman and “feels like a mega-watt Broadway musical.” (Variety)
Based on the unbelievable true story, Harmony tells the tale of the most successful entertainers you’ve never heard of. . . . until now.
In the 1920s and 30s, The Comedian Harmonists sold millions of records, made dozens of films, and sold out the biggest theaters around the world. Their heavenly harmonies and musical comedy antics catapulted these six talented young men from singing in the subway tunnels of Berlin to international superstardom.
What happened next is the story of Harmony.
Directed and choreographed by Tony Award winner Warren Carlyle (The Music Man, Hello, Dolly!), this timely and captivating rags-to-riches story lost to history comes to dazzling life with a sensational cast of Broadway favorites.
Harmony is based in part on The Comedian Harmonist Archive as curated by the late Dr. Peter Czada.
