“700 Sundays” remains one of the best things I’ve ever seen, so this just became my most anticipated show of 2026.

At a Shubert Theater TBA, not necessarily THE Shubert.

Same, 700 Sundays was one of my top 10 nights at the theatre, LOVED it and so glad he's coming back.

These are the kinds of shows we can expect to hit Broadway in the coming years. I'd gladly accept more autobiographical solo performances as long as they're worth a watch.
I'd assume the main purpose of this is to get it filmed for a streaming service.

Agreed. I was profoundly moved by 700 Sundays and I'm glad he's coming back in a one man format after whatever Mr. Saturday Night was.

The Winter Garden or Barrymore for this?

Maybe also Booth after Proof or Imperial if Chess doesn't extend post-Jojo (700 Sundays played there)

Yeah, my guess would be Barrymore or Imperial. I can't imagine him playing the Winter Garden, and isn't Much Ado rumored to be going in there?

I think 700 Sundays played the Broadhurst.

The original production did, but the 2013 remount played the Imperial
