Tony-winning The Lion King director Julie Taymor, whose last Broadway outing was the much-in-the-news Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, has recently returned to to the New York stage with a revival of the 1988 Tony-winning Best Play M. Butterfly.
The casts of The Lion King and M. Butterfly came out to see her Sardi's caricature unveiling, presented by Disney Theatrical Productions President Thomas Schumacher, November 3.
The production will include Bernstein’s incidental music for Lillian Hellman’s adaptation of The Lark, and Menotti’s The Unicorn, The Gorgon, and The Manticore.
Based on the novel and film by Frank Cottrell Boyce, the new musical will reunite Guettel with Tony-winning Light in the Piazza director Bartlett Sher.
