In Transit to play Circle in the Square Theatre

Janet B. Rosen presents the Broadway premiere of In Transit, a new musical directed and choreographed by three-time Tony winner Kathleen Marshall. Performances are expected to begin at Broadway's Circle in the Square Theatre in Fall 2016.

Synopsis: "Featuring an a cappella score from the talents behind Frozen and Pitch Perfect, In Transit is a new, modern musical bringing to life a vivid tapestry of characters and music in the city that never sleeps...or stands still. Inspired by the vibrant rhythms of life on the subway, In Transit follows the intertwining lives of eleven New Yorkers, all hoping to catch the express train to success, love and happiness...and the stops they make along the way."

In Transit features a book, music & lyrics by Academy Award winner Kristen Anderson-Lopez, James-Allen Ford, Russ Kaplan & Sara Wordsworth, along with vocal Arrangements by Deke Sharon and musical supervision by Rick Hip-Flores.

Casting, creative team information and exact dates for the Broadway production will be announced at a later date.

In Transit previously staged its New York premiere at Primary Stages in 2010.
