Lin-Manuel Miranda in All In: Comedy About LoveEmilio Madrid
Broadway's All In: Comedy About Love By Simon Rich welcomed a new cast to the Hudson Theatre January 14, led by
Tony winner Lin-Manuel Miranda. Performances of the limited engagement continue
through February 16, with more cast changes to come. Alex Timbers is at
the helm.
The work comprises Simon Rich-penned stories about dating,
heartbreak, and marriage, all adapted from short stories that were
published in The New Yorker, whose cartoonist Emily Flake has created
illustrations for the production as well.
The performances also feature
live music from married musical duo The Bengsons, comprising Abigail and
Shaun Bengson. The pair perform songs live on stage from The Magnetic
Fields (composed by Stephin Merritt), including songs from the album 69 Love Songs, which Rich says inspired the stories that serve as the play's script.
The original film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is one of the biggest blockbusters in Indian cinematic history, playing continuously in Mumbai since its release in 1995.
