Floyd Collins Arrives on Broadway, Starring Jeremy Jordan, March 28

Floyd Collins makes a Broadway debut nearly 30 years in the making beginning March 28 at Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont. Opening night will be April 21, and the run is set to continue through June 22.

The Adam Guettel-Tina Landau musical made its premiere Off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons in 1996. Based on a true story, the work follows a cave explorer who discovers a cave he thinks could be the next goldmine tourist attraction, only to become trapped inside on his way out. Above ground, one of the country's first-ever media circuses develops tracking the efforts to rescue him. The musical was among the first major professional credits for now Tony-winning composer Guettel (The Light in the Piazza) and book writer-director Landau (SpongeBob SquarePants, Redwood). Landau is also at the helm of this new staging.
