Freestyle Love Supreme is coming to Broadway this fall.
The freestyle-improv comedy group will play a limited engagement at the Booth Theatre beginning Sept. 13, 2019 and ending Jan. 5, 2020. Lin-Manuel Miranda, one of the founders of the group, made the announcement on The Tonight Show Tuesday night.
Miranda, as well as “Hamilton” director and Freestyle Love Supreme co-creator Thomas Kail, Jenny and Jon Steingart and Jill Furman will produce.
The group had an off-Broadway run at Greenwich House Theater earlier this year.
Special guests for the Broadway show, which blends the improv format with freestyle rapping, include Miranda, Christopher Jackson, James Monroe Igelhart, Wayne Brady and Daveed Diggs.
“15 years ago, when Freestyle Love Supreme was first developed, the idea of bringing our little improv show to Broadway seemed completely out of the realm of possibility,” said co-creators and producers Kail and Miranda. “But it is out of that improbability that FLS has found this new home, thanks to legions of loyal fans — first at Ars Nova, at various festivals around the world, then with one-off shows, and most recently with our off-Broadway run last winter.
Opening night is set for Oct. 2.
