Broadway World, 23 August 2021 Harmony, the new musical by Barry Manilow and Bruce Sussman, is coming to New York City in March 2022! The production will be helmed by Tony Award-winning director Warren Carlyle at the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene (NYTF). The musical tells the true story of the Comedian Harmonists, an ensemble of six talented young men in 1920s Germany who took the world by storm with their signature blend of sophisticated close harmonies and uproarious stage antics, until their inclusion of Jewish singers put them on a collision course with history. Harmony is based in part on The Comedian Harmonist Archive as curated by the late Dr. Peter Czada. Fresh from the stellar success of Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish, which won multiple honors including a 2019 Drama Desk Award, NYTF will present Harmony in English, with previews beginning on March 23, 2022, and the production running from April 13-May 8, 2022, in the newly renovated Edmond J. Safra Hall theatre at the Museum of Jewish Heritage - A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, Edmond J. Safra Plaza, 36 Battery Place, NYC. For tickets to Harmony, visit NYTF.org or call 855-449-4658. Contact 212-655-7653 for all other inquires.
