With Into the Woods and The Kite Runner already running, the first half of the 2022–23 Broadway theatre season kicks into high gear mid-September. Audiences will have lots on offer, including six play revivals (five of them are Pulitzer Prize winning plays!), five new Broadway play premieres, one musical revival, and six new Broadway musicals.

The Broadway premiere of Martyna Majok's Pulitzer winner Cost of Living begins previews at Manhattan Theatre Club's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre September 13. Gregg Mozgala and Katy Sullivan, reprising their roles from MTC’s 2017 Off-Broadway production, are joined by Tony nominee Kara Young and David Zayas in the story of four people in very different circumstances—ranging from unemployment to physical disability—trying to get by.

Tom Stoppard's sprawling family saga Leopoldstadt makes its transfer across the pond to the Longacre Theatre for performances beginning September 14. The Olivier-winning new play features a cast of 38 (among them Caissie Levy, Brandon Uranowitz, and David Krumholtz) as a single extended family in Vienna, Austria portrayed over several decades, both before and after WWII.

A diverse Broadway cast composed fully of performers who identify as female, transgender, and non-binary will take the stage for the Roundabout Theatre Company and American Repertory Theater co-production of the musical 1776. Previews begin September 16.
