'All Out: Comedy About Life' by Simon Rich to premiere on Broadway
The creative team behind All In: Comedy About Love, which just wrapped its star-studded Broadway run at the Hudson Theatre, will reunite for this production.
UPDATE: The title of this show has changed to All Out: Comedy About Ambition. The ticket link attached to this article reflects the new name.
A new play titled All Out: Comedy About Life by Simon Rich will premiere on Broadway in the 2025-26 season, with a venue, dates, and casting to be announced.
The show is a companion production to Rich's All In: Comedy About Love, which played a limited run on Broadway from December 11, 2024, to February 16, 2025. Both plays are adapted from short stories by the Emmy Award-nominated Saturday Night Live writer and novelist.
“I’m so grateful to have had the chance to collaborate with so many talented people on All In: Comedy About Love, and I’m thrilled to be working with the same creative team on my next show All Out: Comedy About Life, the companion piece to All In," Rich said in a statement. "It's about ambition, envy, ego, spite, and the blind pursuit of fame and fortune. I think some New Yorkers might find the theme even more relatable than love.”
Alex Timbers returns to direct. All Out is also expected to feature an all-star cast; All In showcased a total of 14 celebrities throughout its run, with four appearing at each performance.
Stars featured in All In included John Mulaney, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jimmy Fallon, Aidy Bryant, and more.
Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels is among the producers of All Out, alongside Seaview and Micah Frank and Caroline Maroney on behalf of Broadway Video.
