Its Opening Night..
Using Jordan Levinsons copy from the previews thread since its perfect:
The first Broadway revival of Caroline, or Change directed by Michael Longhurst - begins previews tomorrow night at Studio 54, prior to an October 27 official opening. It will be a limited run, currently set to conclude on January 9. The musical previously played a three-month run in the West End, ending early 2019. Caroline shut down - along with the rest of Broadway - the night of what would have been its final invited dress rehearsal. This revival features music by Tony winner Jeanine Tesori (Fun Home) and lyrics and book by Pulitzer Prize winner Tony Kushner (Angels in America).
Caroline welcomes four new kids to its cast; Jaden Myles Waldman, Gabriel Amoroso, and Adam Makk will alternate as Noah Gellman, and Jayden Theophile will play Joe Thibodeaux, with Alexander Bello now playing Jackie Thibodeaux (he was Joe before the shutdown). The principal cast is led by Olivier winner Sharon D. Clarke as Caroline; the musical also features Caissie Levy, John Cariani, Samantha Williams, Tamika Lawrence, Stuart Zagnit, and Chip Zien. The show also welcomes a new music director, Joseph Joubert; Chris Fenwick was with Caroline before the shutdown, but he is currently working on another Tesori musical, Kimberly Akimbo.
Caroline Thibodeaux is a black woman working as a maid for a Jewish family in 1963 Louisiana, as the civil rights movement is transforming America. Clarke brings this indelible heroine to incandescent life (Time Out London), in a production that launches to the titanic dimensions of greatness (The New York Times). From Pulitzer Prize winner Tony Kushner and Tony Award winner Jeanine Tesori comes the show that pulses with the urgency and passion that's shaping the world today. The time for Caroline, or Change has arrived.
