Sing Street is a musical with music and lyrics by Gary Clark and John Carney and a book by Enda Walsh. The musical is based on Carney's 2016 film of the same name. The stage adaptation was originally presented at New York Theatre Workshop. Directed by Rebecca Taichman and produced by Barbara Broccoli, Brian Carmody, Patrick Milling-Smith, Michael Wilson, Orin Wolf, and Frederick Zollo, the musical was initially set to premiere on Broadway at the Lyceum Theatre in previews on March 26, 2020 and officially on April 19 with the same cast, but was ultimately delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1][2] Nevertheless, a cast recording featuring the original Broadway cast was released on April 22, 2020.[3] The show was presented by the Huntington Theatre Company in Boston in the fall of 2022, with plans to move to Broadway.[4]
