“Based on the beloved play, Death Takes a Holiday features an enchanting story adapted by Tony Award-winning book writers Peter Stone (1776) and Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers, Hairspray) and lush, romantic songs by the Tony Award-winning composer-lyricist Maury Yeston (Nine, Titanic).
This soaring new production about the power of love to change, inspire and sustain us is directed by Tony Award winner Doug Hughes (Doubt). When the loneliest of souls arrives at an Italian villa disguised as a handsome young prince, he experiences the joys and heartbreaks of life for the first time.
But when he unexpectedly falls in love with a newly engaged young woman, the mysterious stranger discovers that love may in fact be stronger than death”.
