Prince’s Purple Rain Is Coming to Broadway
Purple Rain, Prince’s seminal 1984 film and album of the same name, is receiving the inevitable stage treatment, with a musical adaptation set to premiere at Broadway’s Majestic Theatre next year. It will be directed by Saheem Ali, of the Tony-winning Buena Vista Social Club; written by Dogfight playwright Peter Duchan; and choreographed by Ebony Williams, who worked on Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour. Frequent Prince collaborators Bobby Z and Morris Hayes were brought on as music advisors. Previews kick off March 12, 2027, with an official opening on April 12.
