Kermit the Frog will get some starry Muppet co-stars when he makes his Broadway debut this holiday season. Former longtime squeeze Miss Piggy will also appear in Rob Lake Magic With Special Guests The Muppets, set to begin at the Broadhurst Theatre October 28 ahead of a November 6 opening night. The limited run will continue through January 18, 2026.

The Muppets have previously starred in stage shows at Disney theme parks, though a Broadway debut has proved elusive. A project was reportedly in the works for them to star in their own show led by Tony-winning director Alex Timbers as far back as 2013, though that show never materialized. When Lake's show was announced in August, audiences were told to expect "some of [Kermit's] friends," so there may be even more Muppet favorites to look forward to in the show.

Also newly joining the show are illusion assistants Jesse Forcha, Noah Mason, Jennifer Orf, Natalie Vatalaro, and Alli Zajac; and swing illusion assistants Diana Lizette Garcia and Elijah Gragg.

Lake made a splash on TV's America's Got Talent in 2018, and has since toured the world with his magic act, and served as creative consultant and illusion designer for Adele's Las Vegas residency. On Broadway, Lake also helped design illusions for Death Becomes Her. In 2008, Lake was the youngest magician in history to win the much coveted Merlin Award as International Stage Magician of the Year.

Also working on the show are creative consultant Bethany Pettigrew and script consultant Kevin Zak (Ginger Twinsies), along with the newly announced costume consultant Christine Meyers, lighting consultant Nick Solyom, video consultant Kate Ducey, sound consultant Mike Tracey, and wig and hair consultant Ashley Rae Callahan. 

Rob Lake Productions, Joe Quenqua, and Glass Half Full Productions are producing, with Wagner Johnson Productions serving as executive producers. More creative team members are to be announced.
