The previously announced Broadway production of In Transit, the 2010 Drama Desk Award-nominated musical coauthored by Frozen scribe Kristen Anderson-Lopez, has announced official dates for its upcoming run. Performances will begin November 10 in advance of a December 11 opening at Circle in the Square Theatre, where Fun Home will play its final performance on September 10.

Directed and choreographed by Tony winner Kathleen Marshall, the a cappella musical is inspired by the rhythms of the subway as various characters find their way in New York City. It features a book, music, and lyrics by Anderson-Lopez, James-Allen Ford, Russell Kaplan, and Sara Wordsworth. The production will have vocal arrangements by Deke Sharon and musical supervision by Rick Hip-Flores. The production's cast and design team will be announced shortly.

The musical was first presented in 2010 by Primary Stages, with Joe Calarco directing. It received 2011 Lucille Lortel Award, Outer Critics Circle, and Drama Desk Award nominations. A 2015 reading of the show was directed and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli.

In Transit is produced by Janet B. Rosen for Six Train Productions. Scott Landis serves as executive producer.

Tickets will be available to American Express Card members from July 25 at 10am through August 2 at 9:59am prior to going on sale to the general public beginning August 8.
