Wow, I had no idea this was even on the horizon.
It was just announced that Diner is coming to Broadway fall 2012.
I’m from the Baltimore area and Diner was and is still one of my all time favorite movies ever. If you haven’t seen it, try to. It’s wonderful.
The book is by Barry Levinson who wrote and directed the original film with music and lyrics by Sheryl Crow and directed and choreographed by Tony Award winner Kathleen Marshall.
The musical is “inspired” by the 1982 film and marks the Broadway début of both Levinson and Crow. Prior to its Broadway debut, Diner will play a limited out-of-town engagement that summer in a city yet to be announced.
No casting has been announced yet. Read more
