A Beautiful Noise Plans Series of Post-Show Conversations

Beginning with the February 14 matinee, A Beautiful Noise, The Neil Diamond Musical will host a series of post-performance conversations following each performance.

The series, titled "The Making of the Neil Diamond Musical," will take a deep dive into the creation of the Broadway show, covering topics like why Diamond wanted his life story told on stage and sharing more details from the hundreds of hours of conversations Diamond had with book writer Anthony McCarten.

The series will feature members of the cast, creative, and producing team including Nick Fradiani, Mark Jacoby, Amber Ardolino, Shirine Babb, director Michael Mayer, music director Sonny Paladino, producer Ken Davenport, and others.

“The audiences at A Beautiful Noise keep telling me that this show is the Neil Diamond farewell tour they never got. At every performance they say want to continue the experience, hear how the show came together, and feel a bit closer to Neil," said Davenport in a statement. "These conversations will offer our fans a chance to hear from those of us who have been a part of this show’s journey and for us to share the joy that Neil and his music have brought us.”

The conversations are free to all ticket holders.

A Beautiful Noise takes a look at the life of the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, then and now, accompanied by hits from his decades-long career in popular music. All songs are written or co-written by Neil Diamond. Tony winner Michael Mayer directs the musical, leading a creative team that also includes choreographer Steven Hoggett.

American Idol winner Nick Fradiani leads the cast as Neil Diamond–Then, opposite Tony nominee Mark Jacoby as Neil Diamond–Now, Amber Ardolino as Diamond's former with Marcia Murphey, and Shirine Babb as Doctor, along with Jessie Fisher, Michael McCormick, Tom Alan Robbins, and Bri Sudia.
