New York, NY (March 2, 2023) – Today, the producers of Bob Fosse’s DANCIN’ released first look photos ahead of its first preview tonight on Broadway with an official opening on Sunday, March 19 at the Music Box Theatre (239 West 45th St.).

DANCIN’ returns to Broadway 41 years after the original smash-hit production took its final bow. The production is directed by Tony Award winner Wayne Cilento, one of the stars of the original Broadway production, and produced in cooperation with Nicole Fosse.

DANCIN’ is Fosse’s full-throated, full-bodied celebration of dancers and dancing. Utterly reimagined for the 21st century, this DANCIN’ brims with a level of warmth, emotion, and color seldom seen in modern interpretations of Fosse’s influential style and features some of his most inventive and rarely performed choreography. With New York’s hottest cast performing wall-to-wall dance, including Fosse classics such as “Mr. Bojangles,” and “Sing Sing Sing.” DANCIN’ delivers the quintessential Broadway experience for Fosse fans and first-timers alike.
