For those who have been planning their 2023 trips to New York with an eye on tickets to Leopoldstadt, good news. Tom Stoppard’s Olivier-winning play has extended its run at Broadway's Longacre Theatre through July 2.
Previews for Stoppard's 19th Broadway show began September 4, and the Patrick Marber-directed production opened October 2.
Set over several decades, beginning in 1899 Vienna, Leopoldstadt follows the lives of a singular extended Jewish family into the mid-20th century in an exploration of the human condition, legacy, and resilience.
