A Beautiful Noise – The Neil Diamond Musical at Broadhurst Theatre

A Beautiful Noise will be taking the stage live this period at the Broadhurst Theatre on Thursday 26th October 2023! The life and work of Neil Diamond is the subject of a brand-new Broadway musical. His greatest hits, including "America," are all featured in the production, which will be performed by an stellar cast under the direction of Tony nominee Will Swenson.

Overall, the show is an emotionally-charged, thrilling and energy-filled musical memoir that tells the inspiring true story of how America's greatest hitmaker became a icon. It is uniquely set to the songs that characterized Diamond’s career, much like other iconic Broadway hits before it.

The story follows an anxious Jewish artist from Flatbush, whose family name is called Diamond. As he grows up, he finds his feet as a performer at the Bitter End in Greenwich Village, continuing to sign a record deal that comes back to bite him hard, and as years go on, he walks away from one marriage after another. "Amid all that, Diamond evolves into a globe-trotting, sequin-wearing, arena-playing star,” The Guardian shares.

According to prior reports, singer-songwriter Neil Diamond-Then will be played by Tony nominee Will Swenson, who most recently appeared in the Off-Broadway revival of Assassins. Neil Diamond-Now will be played by Mark Jacoby, Robyn Hurder as Marcia, while Linda Powell is cast as the Doctor.

The creative team comprises Tony Award-winning director Michael Mayer, highly acclaimed Anthony McCarten, and Olivier Award-winning choreographer Steven Hoggett. The musical will have scenic design by award-winning scenic designer David Rockwell, lighting design by four-time Tony winner Kevin Adams, costume design by renowned costume designer Emilio Sosa, and sound design by Tony Award winner Jessica Paz.

Essentially, The Guardian writes the show does not actually play by all the rules of jukebox theater. "It is initially a hit parade within a dramatic showcase of Diamond’s 1960s beginnings in the first act, which is subtly followed by a second act that is set of sequined, post-1960s concerts spliced with portraits of a broken marriage and lonely childhood, and then a denouement of hardcore emotional resolve,” the review continues.
