Oops!

Roundabout Theatre Company, in association with Greg Young, Elaine Krauss, Dancap Productions and Richard Levi, is proud to present a new Broadway production of Bob Fosse’s DANCIN’, directed by Graciela Daniele.  DANCIN’ will begin a limited engagement on Broadway in April 2009. A national tour of DANCIN’ will open in the fall of 2009.

Bob Fosse’s original choreography will be recreated by his career-long assistant and dancer Kathryn Doby.  In addition, creative consultation will be provided by Nicole Fosse (Bob Fosse’s daughter) and Ann Reinking (original cast member). 

DANCIN’ is legendary director/choreographer Bob Fosse’s classic tribute to the art of dance.  This production marks its return to the stage for the first time in a generation.  The essence of Fosse will take center stage in this loving recreation of his original production.  Fosse was one of the greatest and most influential figures in dance and theatre history, with works including Cabaret, Chicago, Sweet Charity, Lenny, Star 80, and Pippin, as well as two Tony Awards, three Emmys and an Academy Award®.
DANCIN’ features an evening of dance set to hit songs from the pop music cannon.

“I am thrilled that Dancin' will return to Broadway,” said Nicole Fosse, “for the first time since the original 1978 production. The creative team of Graciela Daniele, Ann Reinking and Kathryn Doby — a longtime assistant to my father — is the most perfect group I can imagine to recreate my father's personal celebration of dance."

DANCIN’ premiered on Broadway in 1978 at the Broadhurst Theatre under the direction of Bob Fosse.  The award winning production played almost 2,000 performances and earned a Best Musical Tony Nomination.  Bob Fosse won the Tony Award for his Choreography.

“The most enjoyable musical I have ever seen. It should run for as near forever as forever can be.”
