Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey Musical Revival Pushes Ticket Launch to Fall
Producers delayed sales until fall to let Ariana Grande finish her tour and avoid tech issues from expected high demand.
- Deadline confirmed Wednesday that ticket sales for the 2027 London revival of 'Sunday in the Park with George,' starring Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey, are delayed until autumn, a several-month postponement from the original May 2026 launch.
- Producers decided to postpone the launch until Grande concludes 'The Eternal Sunshine Tour,' which wraps September 1 with a multi-show residency at London's O2 Arena. The tour schedule conflict necessitated the delay.
- The show remains scheduled to debut at London's Barbican Centre in summer 2027, with Tony and Olivier Award winner Marianne Elliott directing the production. The unchanged 2027 date confirms commitment to the revival.
- Grande will star as both Dot and Marie in the musical, which was inspired by Georges Seurat's famous painting, 'A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.' The dual role echoes Bernadette Peters' original 1983 performance.
- Anticipating high demand, the Barbican Centre and producers aim to avoid technical issues during the launch, given Grande and Bailey's previous work in the 'Wicked' adaptation. The strategy reflects confidence in ticket-sale success.
