It was announced this morning that ten years after the show opened at the Walter Kerr Theatre in October 2016, the entire original cast of Lincoln Center’s acclaimed revival of Falsettos will reunite for a one-night-only celebration of William Finn and James Lapine’s beloved musical on Sunday, October 18, 2026 at Carnegie Hall.
The revival’s stars, Tony Award-winner Stephanie J. Block, Tony Award-winner Christian Borle, Tony Award nominee Andrew Rannells, Emmy Award nominee Tracie Thoms, Tony Award-winner Brandon Uranowitz and Tony Award nominee Betsy Wolfe will all reprise their roles, with a special guest appearance by Anthony Rosenthal (the revival’s original Jason). Vadim Feichtner returns as Music Director and Conductor, conducting a band that includes most of the revival’s original musicians.
This special evening will benefit The BroadwayEveryDay Foundation and Family Equality. Tickets are now available at carnegiehall.org.
“I am thrilled to have the chance to revisit this extraordinary show with this incredible cast,” Andrew Rannells said. “Being part of the 2016 revival remains one of the proudest moments of my career, and bringing it to the stage of Carnegie Hall feels both surreal and deeply meaningful. It’s a tremendous honor and a beautiful tribute to Bill and James’ extraordinary work.”
“I’ve been trying to imagine what it’s going to feel like when the lights go down and this company walks back onstage together for the first time in ten years, and honestly, I don’t think any of us are ready for that moment,” Wolfe added. “There’s something incredibly special about knowing it will only happen once.”
“One of the greatest gifts of filming Falsettos for PBS has been watching an entirely new generation fall in love with it. This one-night-only concert is a chance for those fans to experience what can’t quite be captured on a screen: the electricity of this cast back together, the immediacy of live theatre, and the heart and humanity that make Falsettos so unforgettable,” Block said.
What is Falsettos about?
Originally produced as Falsettoland in 1990, this groundbreaking musical tells the story of a gay man named Marvin, his lover Whizzer, Marvin’s wife Trina, and their extended family from the early ‘80s through the early days of the AIDS crisis. The revival opened on October 27, 2016 at the Walter Kerr Theatre and earned five Tony nominations including Best Revival, with the New York Times calling it “a perfect musical” in their Critic’s Pick review. The acclaimed production was also filmed for PBS’s Live from Lincoln Center series. Ten years later, this reunion will celebrate the musical’s profound impact on audiences and honor the legacy of William Finn and James Lapine’s seminal work, bringing it to a new generation from the stage of one of the world’s most iconic venues.
