TweetGroundhog Day has announced that it will play its final Broadway performance on Sunday September 17th, 2017.
An 18-month US tour is scheduled to begin next year and details of a much clamoured for London return will be announced in the coming months.
The show’s producers said: “It has been a joy to share Groundhog Day over and over again with Broadway audiences. We could not have asked for a more magnificent, devoted company to bring Danny Rubin’s heartfelt words, Tim Minchin’s dynamic score, and Matthew Warchus’ ingenious direction to the August Wilson Theatre stage every night. This Punxsutawney family has been through a lot together and as Groundhog Day heads into its final month of performances in New York, we are so proud to be part of a Golden Age of musicals on Broadway.”
Groundhog Day tickets can be purchased here. Grab them while you can!
Further information about the show can be found on the Groundhog Day The Musical Page, including videos, tickets, the Original Cast Recording and you can DOWNLOAD the Lyric Book.
UPDATE: (9th Jan 2018) Very sadly, Tim announced on Twitter that the US Tour will not take place. The return to London is yet to be announced.
Sadly (despicably) there’ll be no US tour. ??? https://t.co/eZYCxx8qQJ

So sad that this amazing show is closing! My family and I were lucky to see it and are obsessed with the sountrack. If you haven’t seen it I urge you to go before it’s gone.

I had bought tickets for an October NYC show 2 months ago, and now I find that it’s been canceled. I am really disappointed.

I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m very glad I did get to see it two weeks ago on a trip to NYC and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for a wonderful show, Tim!

Gutted. Just booked four tickets to see GHD in December only to find it has now been cancelled. We were so looking forward to seeing this show. But why has it been cancelled?

I am so disappointed GHD will be leaving NYC! I found it one of the most engaging, clever, and beautifully staged musical I have ever seen (and I have seen a lot.) The cast was superb and the music and lyrics were rich and touching and beautiful. Excellent work by Tim! Best wishes on your tour and return to London.
