The revival of Damn Yankees will bring Neil Patrick Harris, Julianne Hough, and Austin Scott to Broadway. Harris is set as Applegate, Hough as Lola, and Scott as Young Joe. The production is scheduled for the Marquis Theatre, with previews starting March 24, 2027, and opening night on April 20, 2027.
The show's return was announced by its producers; it is a Tony-winning musical. The spring 2027 dates place the revival in a major Broadway house with a cast of well-known performers.
This announcement may draw theatergoers familiar with the stars and the musical, potentially boosting ticket demand and tourism around the Marquis Theatre. It could also create opportunities for Broadway workers, from performers to backstage crews, while giving audiences a spring 2027 cultural event. The revival may renew interest in the musical and Broadway revivals more broadly, though its wider social reach will depend on reception and access.
